Rough day for Gaelic Warrior. Talk of Townend picking IEP and David Mullins and Mickey Fogarty think he's the better of the two as well. :smiley_simmons:

Yeah.
I like sean boyce as a presenter, but his habit of "out there" tips does my head in.
Probably living off some random tip he gave in the last 10 years still.

:highly_amused: I actually almost typed out that some live off value losers :applause:
Take that back... he's on the Blood Destiny train too :chuncky:
Agree.
Posted them in the bookie specials but they aren't special are they!
They're right on Honeysuckle. A feckin dual Champion Hurdle winner not defending her crown. Mental. This sport is in the bin.
Matt Chapman absolutely spot on here versus Codd.
Brainwashed IMO :biggrin-new: :love_heart:
Her going out with a win? Who cares? Grade 1 in name only.
Don't care how deep the Mares race looks, get rid of it and the Champion Hurdle has Epatante and Honeysuckle in.... 3 time winners.
Stayers gets Marie's Rock....
The others have to slot in.
Big picture. It's a fucking shambles isn't it? :culpability:
Haha, understood :cheerful:
Codd's smirk then about Elliott bouncing back this year.....

….ATR Preview; Sean Boyce (SB), Matt Chapman (MC); Kevin Blake (KB); Jamie Codd (JC):
Champ Hurd;
JC - can’t knock CH.
KB - fair to say CH is best. Likes State Man but he’s not as good as CH.
MC - Epatante e/w NRNB @ 33-1 if she turns up, but probably only one place behind CH & SM
SB - Not so Sleepy e/w in w/o market.
Champ Chase;
MC - Edwardstone.
KB - Edwardstone should’ve won last time. Not sure Chelt is Energ track. Edwardstone.
JC - White boards made a difference to Energ last time. He’ll go the CC & win it.
SB - Hunch is Energ is the best.
Stayers;
KB - HBTL tricky to work out, pessimistic about him. Picks Teahupoo. Asterion talented @ 40-1 (unlikely runner), not sure Marie’s will stay.
JC - Ground only worry for Teahupoo but its wide open & he also loves FP.
MC - Flooring Porter, massively overpriced.
SB - Likes Marie’s.
GC
JC - Conflated will run, could run a great race. Worry about GDC jumping early in the race. Could be a great race.
KB - Could go wrong early for GDC but thinks he could be a superstar. Likes Stattler as an alternative.
MC - GDC bombproof. Minella Indo e/w.
SB - Conflated.
Sup

Possibly the dumbest comment from any preview evening yet,and that's from some stiff competition,go back and watch what happens to Energumene at the last fence in the Clarence House,when they go left or right on take off and are forced not to they take off all wrong,such a tactic wouldn't stop the habit,it'd just make his & the jockeys job much harder.
