2022 Cross Country Chase

Will Davy 100% be ready? He had a pretty bad fall at Navan a few weeks ago and hasn't ridden since.

Probably just giving himself plenty of time to be 100%, no way he misses the festival!

According to yr.no, there's plenty of rain forecast for Cheltenham (around 26mm) between now and the end of next Tuesday which would mean the going on the cross country course would probably be quite testing. Assuming the forecast rainfall materialises, which horse do we think will win??

….Shady Operator & Midnight Maestro seemed to handle heavy ground last time, they were a long way clear of the rest at Punchestown.

[luisgarciaisgod]

Prengarde has some very good form on Heavy in France

[Lobos]

If it's Heavy ground at Cheltenham I'll run naked up the Hill.

[Magpie]

Praying for anything other than heavy ground.

Soft at worse.

[Quevega]

Soft at worse.

I'd rather see it soft than firm.
If I had to see it all.

Easysland would be heavily backed in if the ground got very soft youd think

Though il believe all that rain hits the track when I see it

[That Horse]

I'd rather see it soft than firm.

Quoting your Mrs I see

Looks like Davy will be on board

Despite the fading light on a cold evening at Leopardstown, the twinkle in Gordon Elliott's eye was clear to see after Tiger Roll delighted the leading trainer in a key workout under Davy Russell after racing on Monday.

[Lobos]

Gowan the Tiger !!!!!

[DenmanSacre]

Derek has got the ride on Shady Operator.

[Spectre]

Which logically puts Mark Walsh on Pregarde. He isn't likely to have picked the third string Midnight Maestro, so it suggests they are happy with Pregarde taking his chance and that they have him right.
