      Have you got SC covered FM?

      • Nope - he's the one I'm terrified of. It's a 3 horse race for me - I give Brain Power no chance

          If only he'd been highlighted at a big price eh

          Imagine if Finian's Oscar was still in the running

            • Its strange how Brain Power is still being hyped up, I think he's just unfortunately a dud no matter how talented he supposably could be.

              Petit & Saint will likely do each other over in front under what could quite easily be Footpads perfect conditions and although it was a comeback previously Petits jumping will need to be immaculate to have enough in the tank to fend off Footpad.

              I have been unsure for a while over the pair of favourites but the more I look at it I think Footpad has a brilliant probability of winning albeit a poor price with a teeny drift.

              • Petit Mouchoir a bit weak on the exchanges.

                Piss poor liquidity in the market mind you, so only taking buttons to spoof the market.

                • I might be in a minority here, but I think this is a two horse race between Footpad and Saint Calvados. Very confident Footpad has got PM covered, did it with ease last time and at a Cheltenham pace I can't see a reversal at all. SC could well be being underestimated in terms of the prices but I've backed Footpad pretty heavily over the last few months

                        Any rumours explaining this?

                        Don't want another out of the race...

                          Nothing that I can see but as CCM say, liquidity is low.

                            Oh god! This would ruin a lot for me.

                            Plenty of money behind Footpad tonight though, £1500 for 2.42-2.46, considering the lack of money around the rest of the market.

                            • Glad that fizzled out regarding PM.

                              I see some of the bookies have gone 2 places in the without market. A bit disappointing

                              Looking at this field now....5 definite runners... with "a chance"... feasibly. Although takes some faith to see NHH and BP winning without the others falling etc...

                              Footpad
                              Petit Mouchoir
                              Saint Calvados
                              Brain Power
                              North Hill Harvey

                              and then 4 others left in...

                              Tombstone - surely goes for a handicap - not seen anything suggested though? Has anyone else?
                              Kemboy - Apparently going for the JLT - I think that race would suit more ...
                              Asthuria - I suppose nowhere else she would run?....but she has 20 lbs on RPR's with North Hill Harvey, let alone the rest
                              Robinshill - 8 lbs to find on official ratings with North Hill Harvey... been to Chelt twice and beaten 24L and 83L. Just no chance.

                              • hello everybody, long time lurker 1st time poster. Ive backed PM for this back in January with PP at 7s NRNB. Ive followed this horse since I seen It win the ryanair hurdle at leapardstown last year, then the irish champion, I backed It for the champion and thought maybe given a different ride would of finished a lot closer to BD. This Is without a doubt the best form on offer here. Saying that it is prone to the odd error and I have been Impressed with footpad. But in my opinian I think his grade 1 form Is being somewot overlooked and If he brings that to the table has got to be In with a serious chance. If Ive stated the obvious please forgive n go easy on me please lol
