Wouldn't be quite so revered if neither won :highly_amused:

reputation on line tipping 2 favourites. No doubt.
John Francombe anyhow no doubt, his type of horses.
 
Paul Nicholls in a piece today, which he RT'd on Twitter: “We’ve still had good times but the Gold Cup is the pinnacle, so it’s great to be involved again. I like to think we will be for a few years to come.”

He concedes that Frodon is probably running for place money but fully warrants his chance. He will be a debut Gold Cup ride for Frost, who owes Nicholls plenty for her rise to prominence.

“Sam Twiston-Davies and Harry Cobden have both won on Frodon but Bryony is very well suited to him,” the trainer says.

I agree with the decision to be honest.

Absolutely slams home the point that despite people thinknig the Ryanair is a good race blah blah, it isn't :p

He’ll be beat just as far in the Gold Cup as he would in the Ryanair so wouldn’t say it detracts much from either race just one less talking point for the pundits

I wish you were an odds compiler, if you think Frodon has the same chance in each race.

He's going for the better race, one he has a lesser chance in, because the Ryanair is pants. :devilish:
 
Can offer whatever odds you want on horses to don’t have a chance :highly_amused:
 
Turns out Frodon doesn't run here after all then, what a load of tosh them quotes were the other day and RT'd by Nicholls himself.

Great read that Archie. I’m not on Kemboy (yet) but if he wins il be one of the first to congratulate you on here. You must be buzzing, I can’t imagine what having a runner in the Gold Cup must feel like!!

Hopefully 4 places and double figures on the morning.:encouragement:
