    Who said Majborough can't jump? I always trusted Raceiq! 🤣🤣

    2026 Novice Chasers

    After their debuts, I was adamant that FD and Jimmy were the only 2 I wanted in the BANC. Now that's fucking changed! Both have got worse after each run, it's absolutely incredible. FD would have won today's race if he was in the same form as on his debut. Just don't know what to make of it as...

    2026 Champion Chase

    I think you would have to be very lucky for Energumene to win. It's not even heavy going. There could be some good on the chase course the way Leopardstown drains!

    January ‘26 Yankee

    I think there's a possibility Iroko could go for the Ultima meaning Jagwar for the Plate. I'm happy to wait to see if they enter Iroko for Kelso before deciding on Jagwar. The RP wrote the below. The Ultima could also be under consideration, but the Cheshire-based trainers and McManus also...

    2026 Champion Hurdle

    So sad to see Sir Gino get injured today. As fans, we just want to see horses run to their full potential and unfortunately, this may not be the case for Sir Gino. 😢 I still can't work out this race. I think Brighterdaysahead will beat Lossie next week and then the markets will be very...

    My sister messaged me last night saying Betfred had mailed her saying the account had not been used for a while and there was £100 balance! It was like finding cash down the back of the sofa! Totally forgot I had the account. :D

    What a performance by Old Park Star yesterday! Wish I could say I have him backed but I don't.😞 As quite a disciplined punter, I would never dream of trying to get a 9/4 antepost shot in the book but I just can't seem to stop myself on this occasion, almost certainly because it's the first race...

    2026 Ryanair Chase

    I think it will also very much depend on how Willie thinks what shape Fact To File is in leading up to the Festival. If anything similar to last year, FTF could be his only Ryanair horse and everything else, including Gaelic, will be in the GC due to the openness of the race.

    2026 Ryanair Chase

    I don't think connections of Jango, Jukebox and Gaelic are going to give up the opportunity of the most prestigious prize in jumps racing when they each will be thinking they are very much in with a chance of winning in such an open year. I could maybe understand if one of either GDC or...

    2026 Ryanair Chase

    Agree the end of season 2m run was really poor but that run was too bad to be true. The KG run, although really poor by his standards still posted an RPR that could still win this years Ryanair. I personally think Kempton didn't suit him and he never seemed to be settled and travelling well imo...

    2026 Ryanair Chase

    Djelo. One of the few likely runners is now out for the season. This race is going to be dire. Even if Fact To File ran to his King George RPR, he would probably win this race. That is how bad this race is shaping up and FTF ran no race at Kempton. The 4s available after the KG was a great price...

    Yes it is but it was only his first run of the season and Gordon's have been improving massively for the run. I'd rather take the fact it is Gordon's main horse in this race over the debut performance, especially as Gordon seems to have a better bunch to choose from this year.

    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    I haven't had a bet but would have Classical Creek down for the Turners. He looks to be Gordon's top horse for the Lawlors Of Naas based on jockey booking and odds and the majority of these horses have ran at the midtrip or Supreme with only Death Duty going for the AB in the last 10 years.

    Anyone interested? I've got no one in the Supreme if discounting Paddy after his disappointment so may just take a little punt on the Reverend or Fou De Toi.

    2026 Champion Hurdle

    Love reading all this chat and i'm just going to admit(not to stir things up) that I'm seriously in the minority by thinking Lossiemouth is not a superstar at 2m and BDA will beat her at the DRF. Think me crazy but Anzadam could beat them both if they could keep a lid on him. I do think Sir...

    2026 Stayers Hurdle

    I don't see why they would not still aim him at Cheltenham as it's the biggest race.

    2026 Stayers Hurdle

    I would love Teahupoo to win. He's one of my favourites and should already have won 2 Stayers if he'd been given a better ride by Davy. Bob is such an admirable horse who you can't ignore but I feel that everything went perfectly for him last year. I'm personally not giving up on Ballyburn and...

    2026 Stayers Hurdle

    I'm more of the opinion he's an honest straightforward horse and had nothing more to give. I don't think Hendo had the Stayers as his main target so Impose has already been at his best in winning what he already has, but that is not to say he's still improving. What is fact is that it was...

    2026 Stayers Hurdle

    I quite like Kabral and have him covered, which I didn't do with Lucky and Crambo as didn't rate them. What are your thoughts on the British Impose Toi, considering he beat Honesty Policy who is now 2nd favourite? My thought is that the form will be reversed which is why i haven't covered IT.
