A retired jockey sat next to me (old school friend) just said “ignorant fcker”

AP: angels breath for me in the Supreme, Grand Sandy each way
JPOB: whatever beats Elixir Du Nuts wins the Supreme, Fakir has an each way chance and gets the 4 year old allowance #DtwoPreview
GoB: no strong fancy in Supreme, maybe Mr Fisher each way #DtwoPreview
GE & DR like Angels Breath in the Supreme #DtwoPreview
AP: I really like Glen Forsa in the Arkle, Defi Du Seuil likely to go in the JLT on Thursday #DtwoPreview
��#IndianWells2019 ⛳️#ArnoldPalmerInvitational + #QatarMasters
DC & GoB also like Glen Forsa for the Arkle but DR thinks he won’t have the pace, he likes Paloma Blue & Hardline e/w #DtwoPreview
AP: I’m staying loyal and tipping Buveur D’air in the Champion Hdl #DtwoPreview
DC: Laurina will have to step up on what she’s done but we love her and think she has a great chance #DtwoPreview
GoB: I like Apples Jade, she’s been the most impressive performer this year and has a huge chance #DtwoPreview
GE: we’re very happy with Apples Jade, we’re just praying she doesn’t come into season in the next week. Davy fancies her too #DtwoPreview
DC: Benie Des Deux is my nap of the week for the mares hurdle. No other mare fancied by any panellist #DtwoPreview
AP: I like Champ for the Ballymore, I think he’s very solid
GoB: I think City Island is a reasonable each way bet in the Ballymore #DtwoPreview
GE: I think Battleoverdoyen is a bit short but he has a very good chance. The only thing good about Champ is his name #DtwoPreview
DR: I think the Ballymore is between Battleoverdoyen & Klassical Dream #DtwoPreview
GoB: Delta Work wins the RSA, very very sweet on him #DtwoPreview
DR: I’m really looking forward to Delta Work. Topofthegame only danger #DtwoPreview
GE: Delta Work one of my best chances of the entire week. I don’t know how good he is. AP & JPOB also fancy Delta Work #DtwoPreview
Onto the Champion Chase #DtwoPreview
GoB: I like Min without Altior #DtwoPreview
All fancy Altior for the Champion Chase. Onto the X Country #DtwoPreview
AP: Tiger Roll is an absolute certainty #DtwoPreview
JPOB: I wouldn’t swap Band of Outlaws for anything in the Fred Winter #DtwoPreview
GoB: 7/2 Defi Du Seuil the best bet of the week in the JLT
Whole panel fancy Defi Du Seuil #DtwoPreview
AP & JPOB like Monalee in the Ryanair. GoB thinks it’s between Footpad & Monalee #DtwoPreview
DC: Faugheen is in the best form he’s been in for the last year. I think he’ll take a good bit of beating #DtwoPreview
Faugheen fancied by all panellists for the Stayers, value to beat the fav Paisley Park #DtwoPreview
JPOB: We think an awful lot of Sir Erec. Pic D’orhy might be a danger going on his French form #DtwoPreview
DR: Sir Erec still value at evens for the Triumph #DtwoPreview
AP: I think Sir Erec would win any of the novice hurdles in Cheltenham. #DtwoPreview
GE: Dinons or Derrinross have each way chances in the Albert Bartlett #DtwoPreview
DR: I like Sams Profile each way in the Albert Bartlett
AP & JPOB sweet on Birchdale #DtwoPreview
DC: Willie’s 4 all have chances, maybe Bellshill is the best chance #DtwoPreview
GE: if the ground is soft Shattered Love would have a good each way chance #DtwoPreview
DR is confident about Presenting Percy but thinks he’s a short price. GoB fancies him too. #DtwoPreview
GE likes Dallas Des Pictons - Martin Pipe, Noble Endeavour - Ultima, Lethal Steps - Fred Winter, Sire Du Berlais - Pertemps #DtwoPreview
GoB: Discorama in the National Hunt Chase, Ucello Conti in the Foxhunters #DtwoPreview
AP: Kalondra in the Brown Advisory Plate, Sire Du Berlais in the Pertemps #DtwoPreview
DC: Concertista a dark horse in the Mares Novice Hurdle #DtwoPreview

Top panel. Thanks mate

[CrystalSpirit]

Ok so I hosted the preview at Thurrock Hotel last night, all our panel were great sports, I was busy with the videos/screen so didn't get a chance to make notes as such, but I can pass on the following.


Daryl Jacob - Thinks Top Notch has a great chance in the stayers, wasn't fit when behind Paisley Park at Ascot. He expects Adjali to bounce back in the Triumph without being quite good enough to beat Sir Erec. thinks Drovers Lane is overpriced in the RSA (so do I) and thinks Magic Saint is chucked in, in the Grand Annual (said he gave him a feel not dissimilar to Master Minded)


David Crosse - Bet of the week is Kilfilum Cross in the Kim Muir, said he did well to win at Ludlow as he wants to go left handed on slower ground.

Tom Garner - Put up Western Ryder in the County Hurdle, who schooled well the other day, and also Kalashnikov in the Arkle, who he said was electrifying well schooling.

Mike Cattermole - Mike was very keen on Elixir De Nutz in the arkle (as were a few others) He was also very keen on Elegant Escape in the Gold Cup, saying he thinks it will be a slog.

Lee Mottershead - Was keen on Lalor in the Arkle and Friend or Foe in the Fred Winter.

The funniest part of the evening was a gentleman in the audience who was most upset the whole panel had dismissed Clan Des Obeaux in the Gold Cup, to which Dave Crosse assured him that the horses feelings won't have been hurt (it would appear he had backed him ante-post already) none of the panel thought he would stay well enough.

I threw in Vintage Clouds in the Ultima which got a thumbs up.

Thanks Crystal..

Seems like every preview night has tipped up magic saint, surprised it still around 5/1 and if he is anything like Master Minded or the G1 horse in an handicap like a few has said he'll go off very very short..

[Old Vic]

If you spot anyone tweeting from Sandown or other previews flag it up here and I will try and turn into a report.

Not about this evening so hopefully Kev or FM or Ista can keep order.
