Johnny Henderson GRAND ANNUAL Challenge Cup Handicap Chase

[Nathaniel99999]

GOOOOOOOOO ONNNNN GLOBAL CITIZEN!!! 50/1 get in!!

[AaronLad]

Can't say I fancied him too much over fences but he's just paid for my festival and a bit more.

[Nathaniel99999]

Changed my mind for this and going to do an outsider for this who I think has a genuine chance if the horse goes and I really hope they do, Global citizen, I couldn't believe the horse is on a rating of 136!!. Its gone down a massive 20lbs off its chase rating and was racing with the likes of Rouge Vif, Al dancer and Notebook. The horse has been racing over hurdles and has an entry for the county hurdle, personally I think the horse would have a much better chance here in a weak race. Buddy rich I have been tempted and I just can't help but think the horse lacks finishing its races off. Global Citizen is still 50/1 which I think is so over priced.

Called it a few days ago I knew the horse was well in for this

Frero Banbou backers can feel a little cheated there. How an earth are you giving so much ground at the start? Need to be in the front 5-6 of these big fields given the conditions

[DenmanSacre]

Absolutely brilliant. Maybe the British horses being dropped is the way to go in these handicaps.

As if the day couldn't get any worse, I thought I'd backed Global Citizen and I realised I only had him in a multiple.

[Outlaw]

Fair play Global backers, thought he needed a flatter deck. Odd tactics with Gumball on a day when you need to be up there.

Fair play, wish it was the county but I'm still happy with a 50/1 winner

Gave him the same ride in the Dolos race. Easy to see why that day now in hindsight, but that was a shocker today.

The winner did win the Wayward Lad Novices Chase and 4th in the Arkle behind Put the Kettle On - but then seemed to lose his way over fences. Fiddle or inspired training?

[Supermaster]

I'd say you're tipping them has led to two n/r

It's the weight penalty of my tips that does it.

Sorry I just returned 129 pts from global citizen

Shocking but it's paddy

[opatcho]

Paddy in the Oct/Nov meets, he's gold dust, but at the fez... its like he loses his marbles

think if you take a look at my diary I pointed out a while back he had wind problems, successful wind surgery has seen him return to a 150 horse, so it's neither a fiddle or inspired training, just a horse running to his form
