    Could really go any trip, big stride on him and he'll respect a fence more

    He did at the end say, if he can do it at 2, then why move away from that, easier to keep a 2m chaser sound and all that stuff..
    Very impressive today. How good must Marine Nationale be ??!!?

    Facile v Constitution Hill then??

        I really do hope you and he are wrong. Hope Nicky was watching Energumene today.

          I hope I am too mate, and not for my book. I'd love to see them 'take a risk' but I just don't see it anymore :/

              Feronily was the only horse I didn't mention in that race yesterday!

              Can't see anything today as a bet. Interested to see how Gaelic Warrior gets on. Right handed should be a big plus and he's much the best horse in the race on form. But he's sometimes a bit keen so the step up to 3 mile I'm not certain enough on to take evens.

              Will watch that race and GDC with interest though. Not much interest in the rest of the card at all. Although I'll watch the bumpers back in the morning to be fair, with a view to next season.

                I've played a low stakes, short odds acca of: BMG to place (7/11), Three Card Brag to place (8/11), Gaelic Warrior win (evs), A Dream to Share Win (5/4). Just for interest.

                Can honestly say, I am really enjoying not having much skin in the game and keeping a watching brief. I am actually watching the races in more detail now and not feeling the need to go back and rewatch.

                    Good luck on the acca.

                    I'm also not getting involved as much as I have in previous years and I'm throughougly enjoying the racing as a result. Really looking forward to tomorrow's bumper with the likes of Ballyburn and Apple's of Bresil in there.

                        Really interested to see what Tullyhill can do against probably the best Bumper horse we've seen for many years. The form line for both of them with Will Do makes it a very tight race on paper.

                        Gaelic Warrior should get his day today going the 'Right' way round.

                        Ruby says GDC could be the best ever in time. Brilliant to see BMG take him on again. Two top, top horses.

                        Tag Man carries the Good Land form into today's race and I think the step up will really help him. He could be HDB big Novice Chaser for next season.

                        Fun Fun Fun will prove her Cheltenham form all wrong.

                            Can't take any credit really - Saxon Warrior Irish Race Tracking Diary Febuary Race 9 had a good handicap record and I've been keeping an eye out for him after skipping the festival

                                I don't think the 3m novices are up to much but that was impressive
