A few on here backed Love Envoi yesterday at 5's. YWIW was 8's yesterday and Goshen 25's ! -
That just strengthens FF91 point thou Lobos, it's nearly 148% so they need to push both the Mares out again!Originally posted by Lobos View PostComment

But with the mighty hill still in the betting

Looks like it's happening as we speak. Nicky just can't make up his mind. Rain forecast Thursday, Friday and race day. Going to go to the wire again.Originally posted by Outlaw View PostComment

Hokey Cokey for CH. Sounds like will run after all... until Nicky has a change of mind when he sees the Sandown Bog.Comment

He'd be a nob not to run really.
The horse is fine at Sandown on heavy ground.
He's clearly ready to run.
If it means he has to miss Kempton at xmas, then so what ? - it's on to Cheltenham at end of January. Then March.
If he ducks Saturdays race cos of the ground, then he'll be tearing up if Kempton is called off for some reason.Comment

He pulled him out of Ascot because of good ground and has run CH on heavy.Originally posted by BalthazarKing View Post
He’s obviously ready for a run now, and I really don’t think he wants to wait till Kempton.
And if he does and that’s called off, where does that leave him?
haha, just seen Q’s post!!Comment

Yeah, I agree.Originally posted by Quevega View Post
Ran in the Tolworth on ridiculous ground so that can't be the excuse!

He’s not looking for an excuse, he wants to run him…..somewhere!!Originally posted by ComplyOrDie View Post
I think and hope it will be this week.Comment

Hope so too. Want him to win by no more than 6l from Love Envoi with YWIW not far behind in 3rd. That'll be my perfect scenario.Comment

Knowing Henderson he will pull out CH as soon as Nico inform him of conditions when Willmount wins the first race, could be a disappointed crowd on Sat if that happens.Comment

Anthony Bromley, racing manager saying today that he has "no interest at all" of running Impaire et Passe at Kempton over Xmas.
I find that surprising and would love to know why ?
There is every chance that Constitution Hill may not run if he runs at the weekend on heavy ground.
And also, one or two of the other runners due to run Saturday may also not line up, if the race comes too quick.
So who else would run ?
Find it surprising the lack of foresight/imagination from some people in big roles within this game.
You might as well have the entry. Given the possibilities this year and your main rival in Ireland is in the same yard.Comment

I fully expect that's what will happen. His statement last night stunk of keep the sponsors hopes up. He probably feels a bit embarrassed they rerouted the race to Sandown specifically for CH and he has no intention of turning upOriginally posted by Madmoose View Post
10 ml of rain forecast tomorrow in Sandown.Long bitcoin, long gold, long silver, long g/s opening day Cheltenham FestivalComment

Lovely Envoi.....
“All being well, the plan is to run,” the Dorset-based trainer confirmed.
“Obviously, it was disappointing for Newcastle to lose their fixture on Saturday, but we’re pleased the race was able to be rescued and rescheduled for this weekend on a track that suits us well.
“She’s three from three at the course and won at this meeting last year in the handicap hurdle. There’ll be more of an emphasis on stamina over two miles round Sandown than there would have been at Newcastle, so from our point of view, we’re very happy.”
Nicky Henderson has suggested he may not only saddle Constitution Hill at Sandown, but that he could be joined by esteemed stablemate Shishkin, who he feels is in desperate need of a prep run ahead of an intended tilt at the King George VI Chase on Boxing Day.
Fry, though, is focussing on his own horse, adding: “Conditions shouldn’t be a problem, it’s an ideal starting point for her campaign and we’re looking forward to getting her season under way.
“We’ll just have to wait to see who else lines up. If Constitution Hill does run, it goes without saying he sets a very high standard, but you’ve got to be in it to win it.”
