    • Found A Fifty up to an OR of 162, and recorded a RPR of 165. Envoi now up to 164 and a RPR of 167.

      One more win for Found A Fifty before the festival and that will put him right up there on ratings, based on last seasons Ryanair.

        Many of us sitting on 40/1 AP vouchers thanks to Spectre and Sax’s early doors recommendations, thanks chaps!

        • Found a Fifty is 12/1 to win any race with HILLS , likely Ryanair, but could go CC depending on rivals , not very exciting if your on at 40/1 , but if your topping up eliminates the race risk

              I'll third it, he wasn't one i was looking at beforehand but backed him on the back of their recommendation.

              • Let's hope for more of the same, next time out., from Found A Fifty.

                  What do you think of him possibly running in the Fortria next Sax? Typically a race for those going Champion Chase. Perhaps he's testing the water ? Confirms what you said that covering him for both races is the way to go.

                    He jumped well enough at the weekend, to be a 2M Grade 1 QMCC candidate.

                    Plus everything he did last year, with 5 Grade 1 runs, finishing 21221.

                    He's a Ryanair/QMCC potential horse and Gordon has nothing else better than him at those trips.

                    He doesn't win either of those races often, my Gordon Elliott Diary will tell you that if you look up those two races

                    He would be sensible to take the easiest option come March.

                    QMCC


                    Ryanair Chase




                    So he could mix and match in Grade 1s and 2s over those trips until decision time at Cheltenham.
                    ​​​​​​
                    You'd expect the QMCC to have Jonbon plus a couple of Willie's top notchers in it - if things went well for them.

                    The Ryanair is usually more open for much longer, and more difficult to predict.

                    Lets hope Gordon is still dreaming of it for FAF, come March.

                    • I don't see Found A Fifty winning a Grade 1 in open company going left handed. Shifts too much to his right at his fences. Should be looking John Durkan and Ascot Chase as targets if keeping to 2 1/2m.

                      • Loving the fact Protektorat is going to take his chance off 12stone in the PP GC. Just like the old days. Dan says he's still unexposed over the mid trip and he's definitely the class horse in the race. I do hope they are rewarded for running him.

                          Agree, it’s good to see.
                          Just hope the grounds ok for him, he would prefer softer going imo.

                            Fingers crossed. Think it'll ride on the G/S side with all the watering so should be fine for everyone.

                              Never thought I would be pleased to see rain as much as I do right now……..as long as it’s not where I live!!

                                We had a bit of rain here last night and I'm not far away from Cheltenham.
