Kev - just wanted to congratulate you for keeping the faith with Min. Well done mate - delighted that your bullishness paid off. Also delighted for the horse getting his first Cheltenham win. Did it in style too - seeing off the challenges whilst keeping on resolutely up that hill.
Haha, thanks It was a satisfying one
He jumped really, really well from what I remember. Not indulged myself in watching any replays at all yet.
I think Notebook is good value at 33-1 for the Champion Chase. He was the standout novice chaser this year whom, in my opinion, left his Arkle performance at the Dublin Racing Festival. One would have to assume he would remain at 2m given his success throughout the season and 33-1 is simply too big. It wouldn’t be unreasonable to assume that Altior’s best days are behind him and Defi will be stepped up in trip. Chacun Pour Soir hasn’t made the festival yet albeit he was very unlucky this year.

There's always going to be a few negatives when backing a horse at 33s but his Cheltenham form is a concern to me. He could step up though and would shorten significantly with a couple of early season wins.
Notebook is a talented horse but was unruly on the way to the start last week passing half the field getting to the start, until he settles better in the prelims and early in his races he won’t get near a championship victory in my opinion...

Pretty impressive in his PTP and his debut for Henry de Bromhead over 2m 2f at Gowran, where beating Coqolino, whom himself won a PTP very well.
Same sire as Shishkin, though don't know an awful lot about his dam side. Wouldn't have a clue what connections plans are for him, so maybe any race is the way to go for me.
Long time since RR had a decent Supreme horse now isn't it?
5 years?
Who is this years Fly Smart? Or is it still Fly Smart?
Yeah , You'll all be good this year , I'm NOT jumping on the R.R bandwagon this time !!.
