      I took 6/1 earlier in the week ante post as I was expecting it to shorten. Its not as if they are hammering Goshen

        I did the same in a double with neverushacon.
        But they've all stood their ground really, so it's pretty competitive on ratings.

        I thought I'd done well antepost with the cross country race tomorrow but now they're all in the handicap proper I'm not as confident with the front 2 in the market as I would have been (after initially thinking it was good news the Fav pulled out).

            Yep, still beat the price with the x country horses, but they would have stood a better chance for sure had easysland travelled.
            Took me an hour or so to gather that though - more early onset dementia than novicey in my case.

            I've added the Charlie Mann horse now at 33's, to add to Kingswell and Neverushacon.

                    • I thought it was interesting that Tom Symonds has given Song For Someone an entry in the Grade 1 at Leopardstown over Xmas - that race is looking shit hot.

                        I would guess that was a speculative entry for an early closer in case the ground wasnt soft enough at Cheltenham. Less rain than expected last night?

                            Sure, not worth reading loads into it as every entry is speculative, but thought worthy of note

                            • Betfair go 28/1 goshen to win tomorrow and here

                              have had half a point on as that seems big

                              Say he wins at 5/2 and gets cut to 5s or 6s that equates to 20/1-23/1

                                I'll do that also.
                                I've said previously. I'm very much against his prospects from a historical and trainer point of view.
                                However, the triumph form seems ok.
                                And these odds are very fair, as he is beating pretty much every single UK contender apart from The clear Favourite.
                                And I've not been convinced with the Irish horses we've seen so far.

                                Fully expect that this is a losing bet and have backed Song for Someone & Silver Streak against him tomorrow.
                                But a nice saver it would be if he is all that.
