  • From Gordon last week it very much sounded like they were all in on Delta Work. Don't think there will be any spanners this year.

      Wasn't it a similar story last year with Tiger Roll ?
      And with Josies Orders when Cause of Causes came from nowhere ?
      And also the following year when Tiger appeared and upset Cause of Causes.

      Though the clock is ticking I accept that...

        Don't think so. He seems to be talking exclusively re Delta this year. Along with CH he must be the Banker of the meeting. He'll go off 1/2 at best won't he ?

        • Re Samcro, if he ran in the XCC this year could he run in the Foxhunter next year or would it make him ineligible?

            My point is that he's had hot favourites going into the race several times only to produce a curveball to beat his cert !
            If there's no Samcro or Galvin then Delta Work should go off odds on, think you'll get better than 1/2 though, sniff some 4/5 on the day and I'll get interested, but only if there's no Samcro/Galvin...

            • If Galvin runs again this season it'll be in the GN. His record after a complete break is incredible so I can see them maybe going straight to Aintree. That said, his last two runs have been so bad that I'm doubtful he'll turn up.

              • Just noticed b365 have added Galvin to the market for this. He has been missing from their prices for a number of weeks. Has there been any indication from GE that he goes here

                • Just noticed lobos earlier comment about being all in on Delta work. Strange b365 have added him now after ignoring him for so long

                  • Probably all you nutters that keep badgering them to add him again........they've finally given in

                              He'll be 1/2 at best on the day Kev. He really is that far in front of anything else. There's just nothing else in the race. It's his to lose.

                                Bet you thought the same about Tiger last year...

                                At what point was Delta a known runner?
