    2026 Gold Cup

    So if Jango, TJM and maybe GW are all targeting the Gold Cup, then it makes the Ryanair a bit thin on the ground with competition to FTF

    2026 Stayers Hurdle

    Good prompt GV for Thursday and HIlls normal date for NRNB Just gotta now look at the horses with different options, targets not clear etc Any help folks with ones to consider would be appreciated 😀….obviously in the ‘under the radar’ thread

    2026 Stayers Hurdle

    What else has Willie got for the Stayers, apart from maybe Storm Heart and Poniros?…..both of which Paul could ride Just been altogether to disappointing for my liking, was touted as GC material after his Ballymore romp and 2/5 to win last years BANC Also not sure he truly gets 3m

    2026 Mares Chase

    I am also in the camp that believes that JDG first two runs over fences doesn’t automatically push her towards the Mares Hurdle, however would be worried if non form reasons dictated which race she runs in come March. IMO She jumped much better on more preferable ground and looked the winner a...

    2026 Mares Hurdle

    I’ve cashed out as that was pretty poor today and Henry’s started to land a few winners, so form of the stable isnt currently as much a factor as it was?

    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    Denman Bravemansgame Hermes Allen Aeroplanes, Great British Hopes……until they are made to look rather pedestrian by classier Irish hurdlers come March

    2026 Champion Hurdle

    Would that logic also apply to Gaelic going to Ryanair rather than GC?

    2026 Champion Hurdle

    If a horse tries to bite another during a race, is there some warning like in greyhound racing or is it just accepted as a rare thing and it is what it is?

    2026 Mares Hurdle

    Big day for the Mares Hurdle market today folks with Wodhooh, Lossiemouth and for those each way thieves (me included) Air of Entitlement That 50/1 with Denise for Air of Entitlement, which stood for a fair while has now gone and 28/1 best in town…..what are we expecting today with AoE running...

    Win Today & Festival

    Blimey a few related multiples there, both for and against each scenario 🤔 Tomorrow pretty important for some of our ante post portfolios What happens if BDA puts them all to the sword, will she even run in the CH again? I am also on Lossie for the CH, but worried as so many believe she is...

    2026 Gold Cup

    Unfortunately I don’t thinks thems bookies will drift him much bigger than 4/1, even if he loses today I hope to be proved wrong though!👍

    2026 Champion Bumper

    Worth an interest punt and a watch, thanks for the prompt Benjy However the fact that both go over 2 1/2 miles for their first hurdle races, does that put a question mark over the Oh My Word form ie beating two stayers, rather than 2m speedsters?

    2026 Gold Cup

    “Why not retained jockey on Champ K?…..HC’s audition for a full time job with WM?

    2026 Gold Cup

    Just trying to think about Savills outcomes and what, if any, horses at the top of the market need to be backed now, because prices may contract Inothewayyourthinkin wins - and shortens to 2/1- 9/4 Inothewayyourthinkin loses - and doesn’t drift much as he was beat 15l last year in the Savills...

    2026 Ryanair Chase

    RE IEP then on Willies last Stable Tour he mentioned that “he had a feeling” that IEP may miss Cheltenham and go to Aintree, like he the year before Thanks for the prompt re Heart Wood at 50/1 as its way to big…….10/1 to finish either second or third is a steal IMO Hasn’t done much wrong this...

    2026 Mares Hurdle

    The 11/4 with Denise looks a standout price at the moment (2/1 with some bookmakers), based upon her drift for the CH after Sir Ginos impressive return yesterday Obviously there’s the caveat of CH or CC for Sir , but Lossies got to beat BDA shortly and if not doing so, surely reverts back...

    2026 Gold Cup

    Seems madness, from a trends point of view, that not one, but two, Arkle winners are 4th and 5th favs for the GC at the moment……the double only completed once and nearly 50 years ago! Dependant upon the Savills result then I still think Jango Baie, being only 6 years old, may be held back for a...

    2026 Gold Cup

    I tend to agree, as the pain of Vautours switch still stings even now! However I’m also sure that Rich would love an elusive Gold Cup winner
