Colin Tizzard to hand over licence to Joe later this year

I wonder how much Colin still does?

Then again, I often wonder how much any single trainer actually does in a big yard after they get their systems in place.

Then I think about Willie probably watching every horse and having an input all the time.

Then I wonder how I'd benefit from having any clue about either.

Yep, I think Sunday is the plan for most.
Fair play to those who selected before the 6 day decs though....

The dreamers.

TBF I don't think ryanh97 finalises any selections until after the deadline, so I think I'm right in saying you can amend your selections up until the Sunday deadline time.

I stand to be corrected, however.

It might seem pedantic but it's quite an important distinction that the 6 day listings are not declarations. It's a confirmation stage (extra money payable) and the only declarations are at 48 hours.

This is important for Cheltenham because of the restriction of only being able to declare for one race. Using the correct term helps avoid confusion.

Yep good point, appreciate the clarification

You're correct CoD. I sometimes note them down arly though, so would always appreciate a separate post on the thread to let me know they've been changed.

Did think I'd been unusually lucky with very few injuries and non runners this year

Then the last two days happened

will post this hear it’s well worth a read. No beating about the bush with targets and non runners.

[FinalFurlong91]

A few sickeners in there for many

Really don't get why they left these horses in the races if they had no intention of running

[Hurricane fly]

That’s how they all should be!

have cashed Battleiverdoyen. Took a 90% loss but it’s better than 100%!

Wow, that's a fair old chunk of 'wont go'.

[HoldenTheReins]

What a disaster of a day for non runners. Everything was going OK. Right.....who jinxed it?
