Don't sit on the swinging seats at Mowgli !!
The Coconut Tree (Sri Lankan) is very nice food, bit of a walk mind
The top rated ones all winners or placed at the festival, and could be contenders again in March for sure, then we have some real lively types on good marks lower down.
I backed Harpers Brook a few weeks back as I like a horse like him for this race, even though he may dog it right at the end, like Midnight Shadow nearly did
They should go mental up front and I think it may suit something well handicapped that travels in behind.
However, it looks hit hot competitive and I could back around 10 of them for one reason or another.
Might back Torn and Frayed also.
I'll be looking at win today markets for the top 2 also.
Debating with myself (which is fun) whether to cash Stage Star for Ryanair as this looks hard for him to win IMO and he may drift for Ryanair unless he shows up well. But, if he wins he really ought to go half his current price IMO, so a tricky one, cos I'm not certain of anything
It really is looking like a cracker, isn't it, and an absolute minefield for backers.
I've got 3 in mind for this currently, may well back all 3 as well.
The Real Whacker has to be considered but 12st as an awful lot to carry in such a race and on seasonal debut that I think I'll have to pass on him.
As you note, Stage Star has to be going close to enhance his Ryanair claims, but the 3 I've come down on are the two Laura Morgan hopes, Notlongtillmay and Whistleinthedark and old favourite Angels Breath, as he's had a pipe opener over hurdles and anything like his best form off of 144 should have him well in here.
I like Notlongtilmay as Well along with Unexpected Party but the one I keep coming back to is Fugitif. He deserves a big one.
The 50/1 WT and Ryanair SS was a no brainer bet imo as if he wins you've got a lovely voucher and if he goes close they'll push him out and I'll back him again.
If Gerri is the next coming then TRW should be going very close even off top weight.
As you say, a fabulous race but probably not one to get too involved with.............but I will......as you do.
Opening show for phrases used by Lydia in tonight’s Road to Cheltenham
3-1 in what turned out to be a Gordon Elliott benefit
7-2 as above but masterclass
10-1 as above but bonanza
33-1 as above but feast /banquet
33-1 in what was a disappointing two days for Gordon Elliott (said sarcastically)
100-1 Gordon Elliott must have trod in some serious shit
1000-1 he shot, he scored, it must be Peter Ward (Tony Bloom Request a Bet)
