  • Hi Guys - Any thoughts or hopes of who'll be riding yanworth/BD now that BG's broken?
    I think it's almost certain that Noel Fehily will be on BD, but what about yanworth? My feeling is Dickie Johnson first choice followed by Aiden Coleman.
    Yanworth for me had a small wedge on @ 10's a little while ago

    • Dicky would be perfect for Yanworth - not sure if he has a ride at the moment.

        • No Hobbs entry in Champion Hurdle, Dickie likely to be available....

            I've been against Yanworth all season but I'm starting to see why he could win this.

                • Dickie would be a well suited jockey. EVerything looks straight forward, won the key trials and I still maintain that anyone that doesn't fancy him to win, can see him running on for a place. That is solid enough compared to anything else in the race?

                    I totally agree there Kev I see him as an absolute nailed on banker for a place and will be lumping on accordingly!

                    • Just took some 8/1 on Petit Mouchoir from Betfair. Think he must have a huge chance in this, his turn of foot is awesome, the two hammerings pf Nichol's Canyon and the way he was running in the Fighting Fifth before falling looking like big form, HdB sounding quietly confident... Can anyone put me off going deeper into the rabbit hole on this one?

                          Me Neither.
                          The more I look at this, the more than PM appeals (at the prices)

                          Could well be included in the Day 1 Yankee.....

                            If Fehily gets on Buveur D'air I think that's one horse I'll avoid, probably be made to eat my own words now but his everyday riding is weak at the finish, no doubt he'll be trying a lot harder at Cheltenham though with the whole world watching!

                            • I have seen few comments saying that Pipe's comments in the weekender suggest Moon Racer may well be heading here. Anybody any idea what was actually said? I have no play on the horse but think it would have no chance.

                                I would love if he runs here cos I got 4pts on at 40/1 ew. Not sure if he has the experience to win though unless he has improved. First things first is that he needs to get here.
