Gold Cup 2021

He knows it'll be called off so will get fees back if declares and likely if goes ahead will just be a NR.

Saves Nicky some abuse about running horses

More likely to be off but if it’s on and he pulls him the stick he will get will be through the roof!

I'm not sure he will as he already made us aware it was 50/50

had he said he was flying on the gallops and is the next arkle then pulls him out like he has been doing then hed get stick

Hendo sounding a bit more committed r.e. Running champ just now on RTV. Denman Chase the target & if he has to run his against santini there then so be it apparently.

I think Hendo has come to rival our Prime Minister for making it up as he goes along from one day to the next.

Accordingly I cannot use anything he says or doesn't say to influence ante post decisions.

I am seeing BJ outside the gates at Cheltenham selling brown envelopes with tips in them

Yes, or he and Hendo having a fierce argument about whether it is or isn't raining there and then.

Big Minella Indo fan. Hoping he gets beat however because I don’t like the stats on it haha.

Can’t see past Melon for this in all honesty. The race lends itself to more of a flat track bully. Melon pinging fences and running them into the ground is what I reckon!!

Sounds like Mullins wants to try holding Melon up at the weekend. Different tactics.

Noticed on Saturdays cards Aiden Coleman is jocked up on Santini in the Cotswold.

Guessing this is with Nico likely to ride Champ in the Gold Cup? Nico is at Sandown as well so surely no other reason than to give Aiden a spin on him.

This surprises me. Nico has been the long established partner for Santini and he has never ridden Champ yet in a race, whereas Aiden has ridden Champ a couple of times and generally has UK rides for JP.

Seems a bit odd to change things around now for Santin especially but also for Champ. The way the season hs been going with NH, no doubt Aiden will be on Champ in the Denman Chase.......?
