    2026 Champion Hurdle

    I've just got no interest in this race this year. Would love my dream to come true and Con Hill remembers how to jump and beats them all on the bridle! 🤣

    Would love him to win but that is such a bad price. I thought her would have been pushed out after today, not shorten.

    Agree with all of this. I'm so glad he won for all the connections. Would love him to win at Cheltenham but just think there's going to be others(Irish) better, especially in the Ballymore. I think the AB would suit him much more and be the easier race but no idea if connections would feel the...

    Only ignoring Jimmy's run. I wasn't as impressed by Kitzbuhel's run as some people because of the proximity of the placed horses. I don't think Thomas Mor is a genuine G1 horse. The track would not have suited Wendigo and Salver would have preferred softer ground. Final Demand would have won by...

    Final Demand is by far my biggest BANC winner but I wasn't impressed today. Just my opinion, but I'm not sure he had that much left at the finish. I was expecting him to really power away but he had to be asked to maintain his gallop. Gold Dancer in second was beaten by Romeo in a much easier...

    2026 Ryanair Chase

    I'd disagree with this and would agree a GC tilt is the right call for Jukebox as winning today has shown he has the class for a GC. He didn't hold on today imo. He was headed in the run in and fought back to stay on and get his nose in front. I think he's a stayer, as he showed in the AB, and...

    My take is that 4/1 is a very good price as think he will be nearer evens or odds on, on the day. All the horses near him in the betting won't be running in the Ryanair, imo, with only the likes of Djelo, Found A Fifty, and Heartwood who might turn up, are at decent EW prices but nowhere near...

    Very disappointing there from Mydaddypaddy. The sectionals will be interesting when they're available but the pace today looked slow and ended up with a sprint finish with Idaho Sun just quicker. I haven't totally given up on Paddy yet as would like to see him in a truly run race which the...

    Really just a sit back and enjoy watching day for me today. The main bets for me only involve roll ups with Jango, FTF, Gaelic and Barbizon finishing top 4 and that will do me.

    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    Could be a big shake up in the novice hurdle markets today. Not got quite a few who are running today so could be a good or a bad day...The two I do have is Paddy and the Doctor. I'm a massive fan of Mydaddypaddy and all the vibes and my gut is making him my Supreme horse. I was slightly...

    This made me laugh! Would take all those 3 above this years lot but i'm an old fuck and pissed from a night out!🤣 Cue Card was a real favourite of mine and that King George was such an incredible race.

    Hope you're well Kev. Does that mean you've not done any AP betting? Never stopped you making a profit starting this late! Would love to read regular updates/thoughts from you.

    Romeo Coolio - "3 miles would be the answer" Not sure how old this is but Tote put this up 3 days ago as part of Gordon's stable tour. I don't have him covered for the BANC and still think he would have a better chance over 2m so not rushing to cover him, especially as he will very likely go...

    2026 Ryanair Chase

    I think so and backed him after the John Durkan as think the likes of Jango and Jukebox will go GC and plenty of others at the top of the betting will go other races too. Quite also like Djelo at 20s although not backed him yet as this this would be his target. I'm willing to forgive his run...

    Raceiq jumps data had Maj as jumping better than FAF. https://www.racingtv.com/results/2025-12-07/cork/1450

    2026 Champion Chase

    I think what I was trying say to was much much better articulated by Kevin Blake! Maj gets an RPR of 169 for yesterday's "underperformance and terrible jumping" 🤣🤣. I really don't think he ran that badly and the RPR backs this up but obviously the RPR is only someone's opinion. Note Marine's...

    2026 Champion Chase

    Watching Majborough reminds me of watching El Fabiolo in that I'm always hoping the next approaching fence isn't going to be clobbered! It's clear to see that Maj isn't the best of jumpers but boy does he have a massive engine. Today was Found A Fifty's Gold Cup, third run of the season and...

    Just watched the Navan Beginners Chase and thought Predators Gold and Slade Steel were both impressive. Not sure how fit each were as first time out but potential BANC contenders? De Bromhead also going through a rough patch as 0-40.

    Would love that to be the case but know there's a lot of Marine National fans out there(I don't have him covered) who would disagree!

    Sound silly to be saying this after he's just gone and won a G1 easily but Lulamba just emphasised he's not a 2 miler for me and won't be winning an Arkle imo(although I have him covered). I just think there will be better jumpers and faster horses in the Arkle such as Kopek for a start.
