Presenting Percy is not going to go unnoticed by Smith though...seems to be an awful lot of talk about him.

Golden Doyan just beat FGM a head in October at Cheltenham, not much in it really.Comment

I am looking for a double up with Top Notch and another horse, so thought this poll would go well here and help me out...

OV - these types of polls seem to be doing well when bumped from the Cheltenham 2017 Forums. Is it worth sticking this poll to the top of this forum as a test to see how popular it gets?Originally posted by loveracing View Post
Clearly the Festival forum gets much more traffic than the others.

No polls on this sub forum and not within my powers to change....Originally posted by loveracing View PostOV - these types of polls seem to be doing well when bumped from the Cheltenham 2017 Forums. Is it worth sticking this poll to the top of this forum as a test to see how popular it gets?

OV - I was more referring to creating temporary sticky threads for like max 1-2 weeks with a link to the poll within the thread, so members still cannot create polls within the fest forum.Originally posted by Old Vic View Post
It's an interesting / interactive read that could attract more new members to join. Just a thought.

I know someone connected to the Twisters yard, got this update:
Yard have had a great year, they're buzzing, best chances for the week are Wholestone and Ballyandy.
Ballyandy they rate better than The New One, and in such an open year they still think TNO is capable (this at least means the champion is his definite target)
Bristol De Mai can run a big race in Gold Cup if the rain comes.
They still think Ballyoptic can go close in Stayers.
These are the most optimistic people on the planet so treat this with some caution.....Comment

They must be optimistic if they think TNO is capable of winning a Champion Hurdle...... Even this one!
Wholestone, on the other hand, has to have a solid chance. I'm hoping that I can get a match bet between Wholestone and West Approach at some point - he could be maximum bet material if I can get evens or better in a match.Comment

Every chance you get Evs FM...Comment

I am fully behind you with who I think would come out on top. However, that would be one of the bravest bets that I have ever been aware of!Originally posted by Faugheen_Machine View Post
I'd be so scared of Wholestone being passed late on after a battle or two whilst WA picks up pieces (if not good enough to win)? OR a fall?
I do think Wholestone at evens woul be a good value bet in principal, as he is ahead in the head to heads and no reason to doubt it... but the chance of it happening is only a little worse than even 4/5? .... so at even that seems a lot of risk for only a little bit of value?

I usually do a few of these at the festival. Others I'm interested in:
Mega Fortune to beat Bapaume (if the money comes for Bapaume)
Buveur D'air to beat Yanworth
Ballyward to beat Carter McKay
Neon Wolf to beat Finians Oscar.Comment

I don't see any other outcome in a match - maybe I'm blinkered. I need to back my opinion on this one.Originally posted by Kevloaf View PostComment

They'd all be price dependant I assume?Originally posted by Faugheen_Machine View Post
The CH one would be skewed by the jockey too?Comment
