    The '2026 Naiad' 7pm Thursday 26th February

    The owners have pulled rank on the Ultima, although that’s on the assumption they’re racing is at least good to soft. More concerning is the report that he’s been stiff which I can’t corroborate either way.

    2026 National Hunt Nov H’cap Chase

    Anyone fancy a 50/1 winner in the NH Chase? Cheltenham form, and multiple winners from the race. Stands up to scrutiny. Take a look at Holokea. I’m pretty sure he’ll get in too. Trainer in tip top form and James Bowen will ride. Look at his mark compared to The Jukebox Kid for example, after...

    2026 Ryanair Chase

    Just reading the earlier discussion, I reckon Joseph and Ronnie would actually fancy their chances of taking Fact To File down with Banbridge on quicker ground. I can’t have the ‘doesn’t act at Cheltenham’ line at all. He patently does. I could accept the argument that he doesn’t get home over...

    Very enjoyable it was too Ian. Some big priced more left field selections mentioned all round too. Hopefully a few nice winners in there 👍

    2026 Glenfarclas Cross-Country Chase (A Limited Handicap)

    Has anyone heard anything out of Elliott’s with regards to Pied Piper running? He’d have had to come across for a school at some point too. If he has and he’s an intended runner, I think the race could really suit him, and his big price is very tempting.

    2026 Hunters Chase

    With regret I have to report that Jeff won't appear amongst the Festival entries tomorrow. If anyone has backed him I'd recommend cashing out if you can.

    2026 Hunters Chase

    I’d I’d say only the fences will get in the way of Barton Snow at Aintree. I’m not sure Cheltenham will suit though. Stamina is the key there, and 3m2f might stretch him. If he can see it out though he’s a very good horse.

    Apologies DE. I’m only just catching up. Jeff runs at Ludlow on Wednesday now. He’ll go there in good order with a very good chance.

    2026 Gold Cup

    My guess is he’s going down the Bobbyjo onto the National route like Nick Rockett.
