  • Apparently the 2006 running of the Cleeve took place at Sandown early feb, so possible we could see it run at that meeting again? Contenders hurdle and scilly isles chase day I believe

    • Curious on peoples thoughts about Thyme Hill, or rather his pilot. I'm a massive fan but the big negative that keeps springing to mind is Richard Johnson. He's up with the best of the midweek jockeys and reliable for a steady round, but for me when it comes to the Saturday or festival stuff, he's a negative, not dynamic enough when the pressure is on.

        Get a RAB up of Thyme winning and Johnson retiring after the race, not been his usual best this season would be a fitting ending.

              How could he be more dynamic when the pressure is on? What does he currently do that you'd like to see him do differently?

                Purely speculative and obvs he will want to ride NR, he was properly gutted he got beat on Thyme last year thou wasn't he.

                      I was thinking the same thing, I landed in a decent position with Thyme Hill and from a betting perspective I was please to see Paisley entered for a slog around cheltenham :-(

                      Oh well, Thyme will have to go out and do this on merit
