Cheltenham Gold Cup 2020

Agree with pretty much everything you’ve said there about Delta Work. Not sure we’ve ever agreed on anything ET :triumphant:

No Irish trained horse has won the Savills (or equivalent) and gone on to win the Gold Cup in the same season. Paddy (who knows!) has Delta Work at the biggest industry price of 10/1.:devilish:

Shattered Love

If shattered love manages to drop another 2lb I'd quite fancy her for the plate.

Would she go there, I'm not sure. But imo shes becoming well handicapped.

Don't like mares in handicaps myself (not very often anyway)
Effectively 7lb worse off.
Not sure Elliott will run many mares in handicaps unless they're very well in.

I think she'd be well in myself. If she can go from 152 to 150.
I think everything's in her favour in the brown advisory. Course, distance, and drop in quality of opposition. Cherry ripe on the day, she'd have a big chance imo.
 
Delta Work +6 to 169 after the weekend. Fair enough.

Monalee +5 to 168. Less fair.

Road To Respect - no change

Presenting Percy - -2 to 167

Kemboy - no change

Archie - is Road to Respect unchanged or -2 ?
I thought it was a decent performance so to be dropped 2lb would be a huge bonus if tackling 'caps next time...

LIT same as CDO

Pointless ratings.

Unless you are on top of course :)
 
Nicely done by alboum.

I really like the prep they've given him, many have gone to war already, and he's just being freshened up.

Agree. Makes perfect sense to follow last years prep I suppose. He's the one to beat for me.
 
Finally we have the correct favourite in this race with ABP hacking up today.

Will take some beating I say.
 
I think I must have got that post from a different source but I don't recall where.
 
I see Betfred is NRNB on this race
When did they start that?
