    He’s me only antepost bet so far for next year. He absolutely bolted in didn’t he and his other form this year stacks up too. Still only 6 and will be going for it again you’d imagine as a race with plenty of dual winners. Unlikely he’d go fences imo too.

        Love Allaho (was very keen on him from the start of the Ryanair thread this year) but could definitely see them having a crack at the Champion Chase next year after their comments the other day. Especially after the way Chacun handled the hill. Other three are solid though. Big fan of Flooring Porter.

          A Plus Tard for me in GC at the price of12/1. I love an 8 year old in the GC which he will be next year and wasn’t a million miles away was he? Think will have a great chance to be honest. I do love Monkfish but the price is very skinny.

            I've done the following:

            Won at Cheltenham in 2021 - Telmesomethingirl @ 12/1 Mares Hurdle
            Ran with credit but didn't win 2021 - Gaillard Du Mesnil @ 20/1 RSA
            Missed the festival through injury - Energumene @ 14/1 QMCC
            Bombed out in 2021 - Envoi Allen @ 8/1Gold Cup

              A little bit left field but how about Chacun Pour Soi for the Ryanair? Dont quite buy into the fact he didnt get up the hill and with him being a year old next year and them having potentially allaho and energumene to go to war with in the champion could they route chacun here? Not priced up from what I can see atm but could be an OK price..

                I'd put Envoi up for the GC, he'd surely be half the price had he won the Marsh? GC was always the plan, I can't see him in a Ryanair or anywhere else for that matter.

                CPS/Energumene would be of interest for the Champion Chase, as impressive as Shishkin was, it was a fairly average Arkle IMO so he still has plenty to prove.

                Thyme Hill or Flooring Porter for the Stayers seem like much more reasonable prices than the other races.

                  Plenty of good suggestions for the Ballymore and putting me off the one horse I was looking to get with for that, Elle Est Belle.

                  somer1 I agree with the concept of sticking in horses whose target is fairly assured.
                  Remember though this year we will have Aintree, Fairyhouse and Punchestown so markets can change significantly over coming weeks...

                    Really cant see Envoi going anywhere near Monkfish unless it likes the look of the Monkfish butt

                        Yes he mentioned Thyme hill could be running in the gold cup in 2yrs time...

                            Vanillier 20/1 for the stayers hurdle. Seems like a standard progression after the Albert Bartlett.

                              Won't Ferny hollow just miss second season hurdles and go for the arkle? Would fancy him there at 12/1...

                                Also I would think Bosses Oscar will go stayers hurdle maybe?
