    Yes LBCAI had dropped to 3rd in my list for the race.

    The blow is much less when you can Cashout, and you've got possibly better options left in play.

    Thank you again to FJ being fast off the mark.

      I am just about managing to cover my selections with any free bets I can get my hands on and this year I've also added stuff with any excess winnings. Unfortunately for me my bets on LBCAI are all with free ones. As with yourself, he's probably third of 4 selections I have in my book.

        • Cromwell on MMM:

          “He did it well, (but) I suppose it was a little bit disappointing that he jumped out to his right so much,” said the trainer. “It wasn’t something that I expected of him and I suppose it was one of those things we weren’t really going to see until we went in that direction.

          “Going forward on left-handed tracks, it’s not the perfect way to do things, but apart from that he jumps very well, he travels and he stays well, so he’s a nice a horse to go forward with. The Royal Bond in Fairyhouse is definitely the target. We’re probably going to have to go left-handed again if we’re good enough to, but we’ll go to the Royal Bond first and see how we go.”

          Sounds to me if he performs well in the Royal Bond they’ll stick at 2 miles & have to go left-handed at the festival

            Would imagine they might give him some time off and run in the Deloitte at the DRF unless it came up bottomless

              Yep,

              Its better to go left handed over 2M than 2M5F, less hurdles to jump to the right at (if that persists).

              • Just a word of caution regarding Mister Coffey from Hendo:

                Mister Coffey (James Bowen)

                I think chasing is going to be the making of him and I have to admit I’m extremely excited about what he could achieve over fences. He was an extremely good hurdler but I’ve always hoped he’d make a better chaser and while he was a little ‘enthusiastic’ in his younger days, he’s settled down nicely nowadays and his tearaway days are behind him. We’re starting him off over two miles but I should think it won’t be very long until we step him back up to two and a half. He is a very exciting prospect for us this season.

                Maybe more of a Marsh than an Arkle horse

                • 25/1 TWAR is tremendous value for Mister Coffey WTL. That's the way to go with him IMO. Covers Graded races, handicaps and if he were to drop back to Hurdling.

                  • Very interesting interview with Hendo on ITV

                    • I watched it.
                      He got progressively emotional and dramatic and if Chapman had persisted I'm sure we'd have seen him break down and regress to toddler age in front of our faces.
                      Which would have made great TV.

                      "Ruin him for life".

                      Get fucked you silly old melodramatic twat.

                      fair enough not to run, that's up to them, but don't give me that welfare horse comes first shit in this instance.

                        Yep. If it had been the Champion Chase then Shishkin would have run. He's talking bollocks, imo.

                        • He’s definitely gets annoyed more easily these days. Not sure if he’s forgiven Lydia Hislop yet over Altior interview from last year.

                          • Christ lads, how many Cheltenham winners have you guys trained? And how much have you made from the winners the man has trained?

                                Come on Ray, this is just playing with semantics.

                                Div - pretty much means stupid.
                                Twat - pretty much means stupid and obnoxious.

                                So I'd still side with twat.
                                In a kinder mood I'd maybe go with loveable silly old twat, (that's also annoying).

                                It was just the "ruin him for life" comment that I felt deserved the emphasis.

                                Anyway if Susie Dent says swearing is brilliant in the right context then that's good enough for me.
