40's!!! That is mahoosive.​
 
10 points each way on Appreciate It for the Arkle NRNB at 10/1

Won't turn up unless El Fabiolo is out and if he does, he is 100% finishing in the first 3.



Went off fav for that race, confidence in him beforehand was strong and still ran okay.... a previous festival supreme winner won't go off 10/1 either....

There is literally no risk IMO.




It's also a massive waste of time, but still :indecisiveness: Nowt else happening on here tonight!
 
Willie thinks Saint Roi could be the dark horse in the Arkle.
 
Nicky Henderson admits he may have left JONBON short for the Kingmaker at Warwick:

"He blew for 40 minutes afterwards; it was a wake-up call for everyone. It’s possible I’d underdone the whole thing."​

As per RoadToCheltenham on Twitter :encouragement:

I’ve got a feeling Jonbon is this years Shishkin, the positive coming out of Seven Barrows are all for other horses, Jonbon rarely mentioned.
He’s been strong in the market recently but so was Shishkin last year.
Just a hunch…

People may be cottoning it may be a 4/5 runner race.

He'll likely be ridden to pick up the pieces too

Could easily pass one or two of the big 3 on the run in if the winner has burnt them off
 
Now I've seen Gavin Cromwell say Grand Annual is most likely as only 1lb higher than in Ireland, I've actually taken the 20/1 NRNB for the Arkle .... in case one of the big ones misses is.


El Fabiolo
Jonbon
Dysart Dynamo
Saint Roi

Are they the only runners? :indecisiveness:

The 14/1 e/w for Saint Roi surely won't last

Thought he toughed that out really well tbh, and Jonbon scooted clear of him once getting back to him when they met.

Haha he did.

To be honest though, I expect any of the Mullins trio to also be able to scoot away from a handicapper... so we know nothing that we didn't already know...

It's just not a negative... and even if Calico had been walloped, that wouldn't really have been a negative for Jonbon, but it'd wouldn't have been a positive :biggrin-new:
