  • Today was fine for Doctor Churchill's mark with a view to this. Will probably go up a few and be taxed a few putting him in the 128-130 bracket. Looked and felt like a mark conserving ride but I could be off.

      I wasn't impressed with his jumping today and would be worried about it moving into a handicap.

      • Stuart Williams has put up Lunar Power 14/1

        • I'd have liked to have seen Lunar Power with an entry in the Spring Juvenile and running down the field in 6th or something. But he hasn't got it so I wonder what the intention is, and until I have an idea (perhaps Stuart Williams has), I'm not sure I'd be that interested in 14/1 right now.
          Luck is a dividend of sweat. The more I sweat, the luckier I get.

          • Not really sure why he's put him up at 14/1 with Sky when he's still 20/1 NRNB with bet365. Would rather that at 1/4 the odds 4 places than 1/5 odds 5 places myself.

            Also 20/1 NRNB with Betfred 5 places if anyone can get on with them.

            • Williams is a bit of a weird one at the moment. His Cheltenham ante post record is generally speaking giving he's usually just putting up one shot per race. But this season he has basically vanished - doesn't really do his usual Saturday selections at all, but then keeps popping up and posting slightly left field feeling ante post punts. Bit strange

              • Mark Howard has put up Gaelic Warrior on Sporting Life, 6/1.

                Got to be the worst one yet?!

                  At price, probably but with BOG and NRNB at 365, I question how much their 5/1 really matters. It's more a case of whether you'd want to back at that price.

                  I will say though, having just read his column, it's a pretty convincing case. I'm just disappointed for myself that I didn't see/know about him as early as some of you with the 12/1, let alone the 25/1!

                  • Yes, it's a very convincing case, as was the exact same argument put across here, over a week ago.

                    Well done to those here highlighting it then. It really shows the benefit of this site, and I say that, not talking out of my pocket. I'm only interested in handicaps a lot close to the day.

                      Perhaps he’s backed something else in the race

                      • Before Jeff Kidder, the last ten or so winners all had an A in the first three letters of one of the words in their name.

                        Gaelic Warrior has 2. It's nailed on lads

                          • If The Tide Turns runs at the weekend, would there be enough time for a third run with this race in mind? I backed him for the Triumph but not sure he'll line up.

                            • So guys. I am really keen on Joseph's six feet apart at the festival. IBoodles or triumph however I am a bit confused as why he's down this weekend after Doncaster only so recently.
                              What's the impact of him running this weekend on the boodles weight? Trying to understand the positives.

                              • IF Fil Dor is turned over convincingly by Vauban tomorrow can anyone see him heading here instead of the Triumph?
