Cheltenham Gold Cup 2020

He certainly was hampered and ran on late. Wouldnt have beaten kemboy mind. But he had a prep.

I think it's a complete bet to nothing myself.
But there would have been many of them gone down this week if i hadn't been disciplined.

Been some funny old results this week. What with the ground being abnormally soft and the likelihood that a few of the big yards haven’t got theirs fully revved up yet, in hindsight, I too wish I had been more disciplined with a few of the races. Steamed into the Chacun Pour Soi and Abacadabras double for example.
 
Not the most logical bet, as losing today definitely wouldn't exclude Kemboy from winning a Gold Cup (sometimes a horse losing a key trial means you're confident putting a big red line through them).....but 11/1 with PP for Kemboy to win today and the Gold Cup seems a fair price.

It's the only way I can see me getting him backed at double figures and I'd definitely want him onside if he won today, as he'll be back to clear fav I'd imagine (until ABP runs)

where are the special's today on PP ?
can't find the win today and at festival ones
 
found them, logged out and back in again.
turn it off and back on again.
works for everything don't it.
 
Think Monalee trump's all in Saville today. Money has come and trainer/jockey unbeatable at moment. At least the rest of them will go out in price for us in GC !
 
Blimey!

Time to get that Delta Work slip out of the bin lads! Great to see!

Think you mentioned delta work as well. Very well done. Credit where it's due.

I'd lost hope tbh.
 
Lobos said:
Probably but can't see him winning. Delta Work will look a different horse from his poor debut and re enter GC calculations.

Jesus thats very optimistic. Iv backed delta work but his seasonal debut was trash and ultimately so is his whole form.

Hope your right though, as will be a bet back that iv thrown in the bin.

Lobos all over you.


I better get my Delta Work slips out of the bin :highly_amused:
 
Bunchy kind of finish wasn't it?


A couple of lengths covering 5?



Literally just watched it and can't remember :highly_amused:
 
How much improvement is that from his first start haha!

Didn’t see that coming but delighted with that!

Also hope maybe get Kemboy to a reasonable price now.
 
Bit of a bunchy finish with one or two in there that probably ought not have been.
But leaves this race pretty much like it's been all season.
A bit messy with nothing really standing out.

Apart from ABP maybe ??
If he wins easy on new years he'll deservedly go to favourite.
 
Anyone of the five or six could have won that jumping the last!

Brilliant to watch putting Cheltenham head to a side for a minute!

I was watching very closely as my ew cert scraped 3rd. Never in doubt.
 
Great to see DW jump 10x better this time round and very much a live one for the big one in march. Does look like the majority of the Mullins' horses will come on for their first run of the season.

It was, but theres hope there now, its the way you'd want to see it, hitting the line strongly.

Not sure that was strongly, more that it was less soft than the others.
Percy might need marking up a bit as he was not best positioned in the last half mile, but to be fair I need to watch it again as I wasn't really watching every horse.
