I don't put much stock in what's said in preview nights but i always watch a few in the build up to cheltenham (more than ever this year in lockdown...). One thing that has really surprised me so far is how strong the "vibes" are around Bob Olinger. I don't mean just pundits/analysts, so many irish jockeys etc seem to be high on him, loads from opposing stables too
I watched the first half of the racehour preview and both David Mullins and Mikey Fogarty (both ride out for Willie) both really strong on Bob O. Was surprising given you'd expect they'd perhaps seen more of GDM.
David Mullins said he was at the track for the ferny hollow vs Bob O race at the start of the year and was blown away by the size/speed/power of them both. Even went as far as to say that race may have caused the Ferny Hollow injury
Usual caveat about the preview evening hyperbole applies just thought it was an interesting one
