Need Defi to take wrong course after one fence this weekend and have to be pulled up- then go for King George.

Come on Barry !

Could say more but “some” sensitive Bazza fans on here and I’m one of ‘em Psych O Pant pants

Think Defi will be put under severe pressure in Tingle especially with Onura piling it on and jumping for fun up front and with Politiologue sitting in behind. Both those two are much better going right handed on a tighter track where the fences come thick and fast. Unlike Defi who would prefer to be racing at Cheltenham over half a mile further. Think Politiologue will win and Onura is a fab Ew punt at 33/1 first 3 when we are likely only to get 5 runners max. Big Defi fan but will be Ryanair not CC 100% after Saturday.

Only PP/ Betfair 1-3

wet/windy lad henderson true to form in article.
Makes sense to me but......

Who was it that said Henderson wouldn't take into account the opposition ???

As Delia Smith said.

"Where are you"

He was only ever going to go for the CC again wasn't he. What a waste that Ascot adventure was. Still can't believe he ran there.

That's naughty. Clearly they are expecting a very poor turnout in view of drying weather.

Not a waste?

They found out he's not as good as Cyrname?



Might as well go and try win a 3rd QMCC now.




Not knowing would have been a killer, good on them for trying. Didn't work, what've they lost in defeat if they run here in March?

Absolutely nothing.

If you don’t buy a ticket you don’t win the lottery

Credit to them for trying and no shame in defeat

That looks decent now. Reckon there'll be just 4 runners. Defi, Politiologue, s Royale and Ornua.

Your way off there.
Your thinking what you want to believe.

Good chance that Sceau Royal might get some decent ground to run on this Saturday.

Who do you think will turn up?

All apart from poss sceau royal if it is very soft/ heavy.

Likely to be good/soft if forecast correct. Can't see UDS coming over and Dolos and Janika more likely to renew battle in Peterboro Chase. As for Waiting Patiently....... we'll be waiting forever.

Anyone know any updates on Le Richebourg? I saw Joseph had mentioned he was back with them, but haven’t seen any further updates.

Joseph O'Brien has indicated that a February return is likely for last season's dual Grade 1 winning chaser Le Richebourg who continues to recover from injury.

The six-year-old was strongly fancied for last season’s Arkle at the Cheltenham Festival after doubling his Grade 1 tally in the Irish version at Leopardstown in February — but injury then intervened.

O’Brien said: “Le Richebourg had three or fourth months off through injury but is back in work now and seems to be moving well and is in good shape.

“He is a very good-looking horse, and an exciting horse. He is more likely to return in February.”

UdS comes over.

Top notch goes for the Peterborough.
