  • Gerri out is a biggie for my place multiples! Pp on the ball and missed cash out on my singles too!

    • At this rate the GC is going to be a 6/7 runner affair! Perhaps F2F will go for it if it looks like being a tactical race.

      • GALOPIN DES CHAMPS

        Is he an all-time great now, because he just beat Grangeclare West by 5L?

          I just put his name into a FRE - ENG translation and he's called Field Scoundrel???

          I just assumed it was champion galloper and I have an A* in GCSE French

            I don't know why that's so funny, but it is


            I posted some nonsense click bait and you've just destroyed it with nonsense

                        We’ve been delighted with Banbridge since the King George. Everyone knows at this stage that he has a big preference for better ground, so we’ll leave all options open for Cheltenham just in case there is changeable weather that week. That said, if all things were equal and the ground was right for him all week, the Gold Cup is the one we’d really like to run in. In terms of his stamina for the longer trip, it isn’t something I’m concerned about. If we get unlucky and the ground was too soft for him at Cheltenham, we’d look to go to Aintree with him instead. He seems to be getting better and hopefully we haven’t found his ceiling yet.​

                              • I’ve just seen Grey dawning is 33/1 NRNB… got to be worth a go for a place.

                                I know they said they were looking at skipping the race, but if the race cuts up as much as I think it will, they might just give it a go for the place money !
