Johnny Henderson GRAND ANNUAL Challenge Cup Handicap Chase

That’s ok then. Panic over
 
My pre NRNB bet is greyed out, but my NRNB bet is still there with cashout.

Strange that they’ve greyed out the ante post one. To be fair I have no NRNB for comparison though.
 
Not a market I’ve looked at for a few days but Buddy Rich seems to have been very popular recently, as short as 7/1…

My embittered bet with them grey too. Possibly to do with entries tomorrow? None of my other handicap bets with them are tho
 
Very strange indeed. It’s the only handicapper that’s greyed out and I have plenty of others backed, all ante post too.

Think he’s going to go off very short. He’s already being tipped up on most of the podcasts and by the time the preview nights are in full swing…

Just to note, all my bets on him have been greyed out for a few days (not NRNB).
 
I really like Before Midnight for this at 20/1 all in with Denise.

Won well over C&D in October, beat Amoola Gold at his beloved Ascot and then gave Funambule Sivola a proper race (even though went too hard) at Donny. FS is now rated 158 and won the Game Spirit, BM is off the same mark as Donny - 148.
Old course suits being on the pace, trainer said when it won at the course in October this is the target and his horses are bang in form.
 
Buddy Rich is currently entered for a 2m grade 3 novice chase at Naas on Sunday. One to keep an eye on, even though Elliott said he would go straight to Cheltenham.
 
With the fewest entries of all the handicaps ,38 , potentially some very low 130s could get into this.
 
Disappointed not to see Magic Saint entered.

I thought he had a shout. Not in the Plate either, so maybe an injury.

Now the entries are out this race dare I say it this looks like it will be dominated by the higher rated horses 145+ they just look to have a class edge and the last few years have done pretty well in this, of those and guessing the Irish marks I too liked BM of the lot and his canny young trainer has targeted races well this season.
 
Be very interested to see what sort of weight Andy dufresne gets for grand annual not run since 2nd November giving captain Guinness seven pounds

Sky Pirate is top rated of the entries at 156, top weight gets 11-12, Andy is 152 so should get 11-08 by my reckoning.
