Cheltenham Gold Cup - 2019.

[mayo]

Sorry, wasn't a dig at you, just Twitter is laughable. Never forget the Min injury rumour before the Supreme, only for it to be the footballer who played for Tottenham with the same name :highly_amused::highly_amused:

I remember that rumour but never heard the second bit :highly_amused::highly_amused:

Not sure if anyone had put this up over Christmas, but I certainly missed it if they did but Phillip Reynolds (Presenting Percy owner) had the following to say after his no show over the Christmas period "It's desperately frustrating," Reynolds admitted of the delay. "Pat is fairly philosophical about it. He keeps reminding me there's one day for this horse this season and that's Gold Cup day.

"We don't want to leave it somewhere else, so what can we do? The horse is ready to run but we just have to be patient."

I like this thought, no 'million pound bonus' to go for, just one race, on one day.

Al Boum Photo officially up to 164 (up 5) for his Tramore win.

Somewhat bizarrely, Presenting Percy also up 2 to 169 for being frit.

Native River won the Gold Cup after one run in Feb last season.

He's going to do the same.

Where’s Sizing John?

Where’s Sizing John?

Waiting for rain.

 

[ComplyOrDie]

Waiting for rain.

Enough for Noah to resurrect his ark?

 

[Kevloaf]

Sizing John hasn't been forgotten enough in the market to lure me in.

What's his Ryanair NRNB price?

Definitely get my money back, sounds shrewd though.

43 entries and no surprises except, maybe, Yorkhill.

Having been a doubter last year, I am increasingly coming around to him (ABP that is)

Go on Don Poli

 

[Hurricane fly]

Yorkhill would be a good laugh

 

[charlie]

Yorkhill would be a good laugh

I thought he was out for the season? That’s what GW and stable staff have said

 

[delsie777]

No Footpad! Thank God. Danny Mullins will be surprised!

 

[Quevega]

Maybe they've put him in to sit on the outside of Native River and jump left into him at every fence.

 

[jonthehammer]

Wonder how many of those we can dismiss now as not even going there?

Will put this one up, I'm sure it will not be followed..

Definitly Red 2.5p e/w 33/1

Ran in the gold cup last year sp 8/1 but ran in to two amazing horses that took most out of the game from the off.. Red is not a bad horse, won his last two races and trainer said this time he is going to rest him for the race unlike last year where he ran in heavy going on the 27th Jan, he won the race but that must of taken a lot out of him, goes very well fresh. he is 10yr old now so last chance saloon.

At the moment he is 33/1 and with what I have seen so far this year he must have a shout, not saying he will win but must be in with an E/W chances...

Think the owner said in the RP he thinks he's slightly over priced recently.

On the pick of his form he'd have an each way shot wouldn't he.

Not one I've dabbled with though
