    • …if they’re moving out the way for GDC, Banbridge could be his biggest threat.

      • Thought Monty's Star ran a nice race, potentially showing improvement by finishing ahead of Embassy Gardens. Suspect there will be more improvement to come, given Henry is training him for one race and one race only.

        I don't know what price he is now but think he'll go there with a real place chance.

          • At the last thought for a second or so GDC was going to be taken by one or other of the challengers. GDC having none of it. Off he goes once they're over the final fence.

            Hope he gets his 3rd GC next month. A true superstar.

              I thought he was getting swallowed up by the others too but it might just have been the angle as they were running towards the camera. Just went and watched it back and he was a length clear of them jumping the last by my reckoning so it was only a trick of the eyes that they were closing on him.

              • What a ridiculous horse Galopin Des Champs is



                4/6 NRNB is very fair and surprised he's not a little shorter


                I would still feel like Fact To File is the second best staying chaser .... if anything happened to GDC he'd be a solid enough fav, but have to admit the Ryanair path is probably where they'll now go.... him not holding on to second, for all that I don't think that's probably a true reflection of ability, means it makes the case a little easier to stomach

                          Not much of a surprise really.

                              So much for the trainer leaving all options open.
                              I suppose they could supplement if the race cuts right up.
                              Wouldn't back him for this at any stage though, unless daft prices.
