Think somebody asked about Debuchet .... found this...

Classy bumper performer Debuchet will not make his hurdling debut until late December at the earliest after undergoing a minor wind operation.

The four-year-old finished a clear second behind the ill-fated Fayonagh in the Champion Bumper at last season's Cheltenham Festival before he impressed in a Listed event at Limerick in April.

Trainer Mags Mullins had by now hoped to have seen her stable star make his hurdling debut, but his seasonal reappearance has been delayed.

Mullins said: "Everything is good and he's back on the gallop now.

"It was only minor and there was really no recovery time. He hasn't missed much work and, all being well, we'll have him ready to run in one of the maiden hurdles at Leopardstown over Christmas or in the first week in January.

"We were close to running him, but we just felt we could make it worse, so we decided to have it sorted and we'll know in the next couple of weeks whether it's done the trick."

Hi to everyone this is my first post, I've been ante post betting on Cheltenham for over 10 years and love looking at the markets and news everyday so when I started reading all your messages I thought I'd have to join. My best bets so far are for the novice races, the Arkle and JLT novice chase, I like Footpad and Death Duty and Willoughby Court at this stage.
 
Welcome The Lick, good looking selections, I’ve nailed my colours to Willoughby Court but I’ve took him to win any race just in case ;)
 
Thank you Paz, yes I had a nibble for the RSA also, Ben Pauling suggested he would be aimed at the shorter distance and won the Neptune well enough over 2mile 5f last time. What do you think about Apples Shakira running today and odds now as low as 7/2 for Trriumph��
 
Just asked the nice people at Bet365 to remove all bets in unsettled list as Annamix now wont be going to Cheltenham (4 trebles and a single) so they voided the five bets and gave me my stakes back as a good will. Bloody happy me ;)

That is she wins and she gets shorter based on winning at 1/7 to look elsewhere :D

That is generous! Not sure they'll be so accomodating for everybody haha

She won as she should and is fairly short now, I backed JP’s other one a Espoir D’allen for the Triumph ew before they had both run but it maybe he goes for the Fred Winter instead if AS keeps doing what she does

You are right she won as a big odds on should but nice to get to see run and win at Cheltenham.

There was another good looking juvenile that won today, We have a dream 10/1 JLT 2nd fav for the triumph now.

Anyone know ,or think they know why Will hill have pushed Apples jade out to 3-1 for the mares hurdle ?,
Really fancied her for this race , all the others are 5-4 ,6-4 ish. ??

Probably taking a punt on the fact she runs over 3m at Christmas. And fancy her to win that and open up a dilemma to running in the stayers.
Surprised it hasn't been taken by the yard as she was never much bigger than that if shes certain to go mares. Its been there a few days.
 
My system of only using "Free Bets" on Douvan for the CC failed when I put 6 pts on (I think when Altior had a setback!? maybe before).... and 4 pts any race!!! -10 pts today.

The silver lining is obviously the speculative each way bets on Min and any bets with Altior now look a lot more exciting. Especially the Min bets as they were placed with the full awareness that Douvan might end up in a different race... (or as it turns out, not at all)

I think it's an error on Oddschecker. I noticed this yesterday but went to the market and he was 6/4.
