Ouch ! :boxing:

Hope CC is ok, as I think he wins something big this year…..Ryanair best race IMO

However this ante post lark can be a tad hurtful after Fastorslow KG, Ginnys Destiny PP (not fit enough ?), I’ll est Francais KG, Dysart Enos GrW and now CC for the Betfair……..and it’s not even the end of Nov!:sorrow:

Thems bookmakers must be rubbing their hands together ! :disgust:

Cutting their wrists after PP weekend bloodbath apparently!

Bunch of pussies.
 
Can someone put the Kim Bailey stable tour into the stable tours for members please? (Racing Post)
 
I thought our weather man at the track (Yosser) said it was damp and rain forecast ?

It rained all weekend, It's raining now and it's forecast rain on and off for the week with Saturday looking potentially very rainy. The ground should have more than enough juice in it

Capodano being supplemented just makes it more interesting. He likes soft ground and must be ready to roll. They did the same in the Cotswold chase last year. Wonder what the reasoning behind Corbett's is. No way they are pulling him after the weather in anticipation of the ground in 5 days with the forecast the way it is. We have 3 nights on the trot of sub zero temperatures to come too.
 
Straight to King George maybe now the fav looks like missing out ??

Frank Berry was blathering on about the ground last week laying the ground works for a NR.
 
Capodanno will be Willies first ever runner in the Betfair chase!!!

Snowed all night :topsy_turvy:
 
Quite a bit of blue on oddschecker for Midnight River in the Coral GC…….clearly hoping the Skelton bandwagon continues rolling I suppose

5lbs lower than last year, when fell…..and a different approach to getting race fit this year with having a run in a handicap over 2m 3f at Wetherby rather than running again in the Charlie Hall
 
IET "not quite right" this morning so won't go in the John Durkan. I've cashed my King George bet on that basis. I am not sure Willie would send him over FTO.
