Has anyone had a Cheltenham 2022 punt yet

Gordon/Sneezy have their 300k Walk in the Park store Bellatior entered up in a bumper on the 25th. Owned by the Mount Ida crew who are another new owner pumping in the money.

Have to say, and I haven't fully considered where I'll focus next years efforts, but I'll struggle to get with any UK horse that isn't Thyme Hill or Shishkin...

Asked 365 for a price on TH for the Brown Nov Chase earlier today

Quite literally ... must say I do like Bravemansgame. I think he’ll be a better horse for a longer trip and fences.

Does anyone have a view on how Willie splits his next year? He namechecked the Arkle for AI, but I felt that was more a case of him assuming (and thinking everyone else had assumed too) that he’d be a Marsh horse, and he was suggesting that the Arkle shouldn’t be ruled out.

I think he’ll send FH to Arkle, AI to Marsh and GDM to RSA.

I’ve also got a feeling Bob might get 3 miles ...

I agree and it's probably factored into there prices but I feel Dusart has the potential to be top class. He has a lack of experience but to do what he did first time against Soaring Glory was impressive, and as much as Nicky has had a poor season he still won 2 of the novice chases this year.

Bravemansgame was always talked of as a staying chaser for next season and I thought his run on the ballymore was solid enough, for me the ballymore was the best of the 3 novice hurdles by some way and I'd expect BMG and GDM to take front rank in the RSA. Contradicts me backing Vanillier but I think he's overpriced for easily winning the Bartlett. For what it's worth I think we might get a clash between BO and AI in the Marsh next year which is why I've left that alone for now.

Personally I see Ferny Hollow staying over hurdles for a crack at the CH and Quilixious going over fences for the Arkle.

Quilixios is with De Bromhead though.

Crikey, that would be a tasty match up though Q vs either Ferny or AI

Problem is the bookies have priced up the irish novice chasers so low they arent really a betting proposition

not in singles anyway

Yep, but look at how the handicappers got smashed into stupid prices last week, someone clearly still felt there was value in The Shunter at 5/2 and Mount Ida at 100/30 for them to return shorter, and win...

I've backed AI for Marsh but concern is Bob O. Also wondering if they won't put Bob O over 3m because of Gentlemansgame.

[DenmanSacre]

I'd say the least likely target for BO is the 3 miler. Showed so much speed that the CH, Arkle or Marsh would be much more likely IMO.

Can someone ask sky to add Flinteur Sacre to Arkle and Supreme markets ? Thanks

[luisgarciaisgod]

Has it been suggested that Thyme Hill goes chasing?

Definite unfinished business for him over hurdles.

[Sprinter Sacre]

Energumene reduced from 25/1 to 16/1 for the Ryanair.

Envoi Allen has gone off odds on 11/12 times, is 2/3 at Cheltenham and barring one uncharacteristic mistake is unbeaten and has looked incredible. He's 5/1 TWAR with SkyBet.

It will be 5/2 come the end of May, 5/1 is very short to get involved in now, but it’s still very much a value bet for me.
