    • Had a bigger bet on Getabird (too keen) and in doubles & trebles, but also took Betways offer free bet first race or last & have the winner, did not really fancy him but still got my money back for the race, so not happy but also not totally disappointed.

      GL all in the next...

              • So just not top class or is Cheltenham the issue?

                • Still think Getabird is a stayer

                  • I was just talking to a friend,

                    2 years ago was getting rave reviews before getting injured and ruled out of the champion bumper. This year was very short but had never run on the left handed track. Getabird has followed previous routes to good Mullins horses and won.

                    I did have getabird at Cheltenham and I just had him to win 5+ lengths today purely based on weaker opposition but I do think he isn’t quite up to the top class standard.

                      The course for me.
                      We all heard the horror stories about him turning right at the opening fence in his point before running out at the second, todays track was always going to help.....

                      • Not just going left handed but there were also a few concerns going into the festival about Cheltenham and the undulations and how he might cope with the doubts/concerns about his front legs...

                        Would certainly be a concern when he lines up at the festival next year that's for sure
