  • ...I still think Kemboy offers real value at 14-1. I remember how it got backed a few years ago when falling at the first and thinking how much regard the horse must’ve been held in.

    I reckon it will be much shorter on Friday.

      Easy to forget how easily he beat al boum photo at punchestown

      the ability is definitely there, its just whether he can put it all together at this track and over this trip

      • Just a personal opinion, but have serious doubts the horse will act around Cheltenham.

          • Thats great news for me as l was struggling to make a strong case for any of them other than Native River if the ground was soft. Cant have ABP as a thrice winning GC horse, Champ jumps too erratically and can pick wholes in the others. RP on the other hand will get my cash on the day. Thought he was mightily impressive LTO and l said then that was the GC winner and now its confirmed he's going there. 8/1, huge price.

                    Will he be able to keep up in the first mile if they go fast would be my only question

                    Hes turned into elegant escape this season

                      Can't have santini, looks regressive this year.

                        Think mentions of that horse might be banned

                        • Course and distance really suits Santini, think he could well run another big race again.

                            I think the trainer has done his best to make him
                            look regressive, why he ever went near a King George is beyond me, strong pace guaranteed and will bring his stamina into play, is a solid player and one for a proper 3/4 place bet for me....

                            • The problem with Santini I feel is he needs to be kept on the game the whole race. Needs booted into fences etc.

                              Riding is very difficult but I can’t imagine how exhausting horses like him would make your job

                              I know Aiden Coleman has ridden him once and I think he knew straight away. He wasn’t doing the booting into fences and his run was very poor imo. Hopefully he’s learned from that to have any chance.
