Cheltenham Preview Nights 2018

Yep, poor stream...
 
I think it's an illness watching and reading these things. Only once a year though. Thanks to all contributors.

I think the folk on the panels of these nights watch all the other nights too. You definitely see the same "trending" horse appear increasingly the closer you get to the Festival. It's great when they all latch onto one in a race where you fancy something else :)
 
strange how he says barra will go for the coral, then when talking about ben dundee expressing concern that he'll go in either the coral or the country depending on whether he gets into either. ben dundee is carrying more than barra in both and is far more likely to get in then she is
 
I havne't heard much/seen anything actually! from Davy Russell this year... where has he been?
 
His mother died very recently so he cancelled a lot of his appearances

That is a shame, and does explain a lot.

Ona potentially similar note, what is the family issue Codd is having that has meant he's takena back seat over the last few weeks?
 
Sad to hear about Davy and Jamie's family situations, certainly explains why they are away.
 
Enjoying this. Get the impression that Kingy doesn't think much of Kennedy. Informative and a little bit of edge.

King already confirmed ground too soft for Mia's Storm to run.

Henderson just dropped bombshell that On The Blind Side will not run.
