    Wonder if Percy is still in the Ryanair? Had a little NRNB go with him in that.
    Some Twitter post I saw earlier said he was out for the season?

    Edit - leg infection but looking towards the National, RP article just released.

      Think it was just Cheltenham he's been ruled out of.

      Always the 2022 Gold Cup Kevloaf

          For what it's worth I still believe Perfect Candidate will win a Grand National, everyone needs a dream....

            • What price does Boum go off in this ?? I said he'd go off 2/1 months ago but, if a fair few Bankers go in , he could go off evens maybe?? 6/1 was truly an incredible bet.

              • Did anything get said after Melon’s performance in the Irish Gold Cup? He must surely go Ryanair now?

                • Looking to be one of the weakest gold cups for a long time, have several bets on al boum and in doubles and trebles but looking at a each way option the thought of backing something like frodon for a gold cup any normal year would be insane but seriously apart from the favourite what else makes the frame????

                  Not convinced apt sees out the trip, native river should be nowhere near them at the bend at 11 years old, santani seems to have lost all ability. What else is there???

                      Frodon is a bigger threat than them two.

                        Similar form to last year.
                        Tizzards tend to improve in the spring.
                        Stats would disagree about winning after a failed first attempt but Native River did it from same stable.
                        Small fields likely skew this figure but hasn't been out of the first 3 in all completed chases.
                        Has ran 3 good races over fences on the New course so track obviously suits.

                        Price has drifted - 20/1 NRNB with PP - possibly a leap of faith but I think he could be a decent EW play.
                        Would be interest to see how he runs at the weekend, if it's on....

                        Agree though - now not looking the strongest renewal and difficult to see what challenges ABP for three in a row

                        • I think a plus tard is a danger, not convinced champ jumps well enough and also had no sort of prep for it, rp a tough one to work out but has looked good this season, minella indo disappointed last time and got lots to prove now, would love to see native in the mix but surely an 11 year old won't win, santini would need to start with the albert bartlett runners, don't see frodon anywhere near winning a gold cup, kemboy may be heading stayers.

                            Frodon was mentioned in the post I replied to.
                            thanks for your opinion though.

                              • Frodon would be a bigger treat, and Frodon has little chance
