2026 BetMGM Cup Handicap Hurdle (previously Coral Cup)

I Started a Joke heading here apparently then. The least likely race of the three he was entered in I thought :LOL:

I'll leave him at the prices he is now. But one for the shortlist on the day.
 
Kateira now been virtually smashed into favourite after Dans comments.

Not usually..... always!

Must be a reason they haven't been to Cheltenham at any time.

Maybe they've planned the Coral Cup gamble for 4 years!
 
Beat an under performing Golden Ace by 28 lengths off 145 and comes here off 141. Skelton special

5lb higher than her last winning mark in a Handicap so not well in imo. Did beat current Gold Cup fav that Day though !

Lol, if you don’t count the two post-Xmas ones this year then she hasn’t run in any handicaps since that win!

Dan said the plan was made at Christmas so got to assume they weren’t trying their hardest in the last two.

The way I look at it is if she were in a match with Roc Dino, would you fancy her giving him 10lbs?
 
I'd imagine the plan was hatched the moment they never got put up for stuffing Golden Ace. You know they are at it, when Tristan Durrel comes in for the rides
 
I always had Kateira as a 3m horse, but a strongly run 2.5 is right.

Annoyed at waiting too long for the 40s but have 25s
 
I’ve been burned too many times by Skelton telling us his good thing. His plots aren’t usually the ones he sings about imo. Obviously if I could’ve got on at a price I would’ve covered, but not at the prices available now, that’s for sure!
