    Always had it in my mind he'd be a 20f horse but with Willie quoting him as a stayer I've had to have a small interest in the BANC...
    14s any race looks decent for him

    In one stable tour wilie said 2 mile or 2m4f

    In the other he said hes a stayer

    So he's not been much help

      Really ? I missed that, so yes not massively helpful.
      I can't easily play any 'any race' bets unfortunately so I'll just have to run this...

      • I'll have my eye on Iron Bridge after that. Very taking indeed.

            Would of been 3rd in Colin Parker and given he gained ground on that race from 2 out plenty to come over a stiffer test. I got quite excited about Papo Tango as a capper going forward last year mind thou this lad looks to have more scope and better temperament than his stablemate.

            • Nice start from Stage Star. Absolutely loads left and jumped well in the main. Had plenty to prove after bombing out in the Spring.

              I imagine the G2 over 2m4 at Newbury will be next.

              • Monmiral entered up at Carlisle next Monday in a Graduation Chase - tough race to start in looking at the current opposition of Tommy's Oscar, Cheddleton, Aucunrisque, Cornerstone Lad, Malystic & Red Rookie. Going up against plenty with experience over fences if he does run. All of them are already jocked up (according to RP), which seemed strange to me at such an early stage.

                • Gars De Sceaux seemed a fan favourite last year, thoughts on him this year as a 2nd season novice?

                    PN is in brilliant form so I'd make him a strong fav. However, this is a Cheltenham festival forum so we shouldn't be talking about his

                      He'd need to be good to beat Tommy's Oscar. Would be an interesting race if all are declared.

                          Bloody hell it's a flimsy enough comment and they're pretty much the same race these days

                            ….not sure how long 25-1 will last with 365 for NHC, generally a 16-1 chance.

                              Probably got big liabilities on Chemical Energy so more than happy to straighten books. If Gordon and his stable have had a big bet on CE for the NHC then if he gets there in good form I don't see Crooner in the race.

                              • I can't believe Hollow games is still 25/1 for the NHC. This horse was talked about for it last year and quotes were made and the horse was always going to be a better chaser over further. Its being so overlooked I've been topping up on this horse. I know it hasn't jumped a fence yet but it had a decent hurdle campaign and it even gave weight to Bambrige last season at Cheltenham and was running on behind and just looked like it needed a step up in trip. I guarantee once it races at Navan and wins (if it does) 25/1 is just going to disappear.
