Fancies today:

12.05 - Jpr One @ 11/4
12.40 - Undersupervision @ 10/3
1.15 - Quinta Do Mar @ 6/1
1.50 - Fontaines Collognes @ 3/1
2.25 - Mister Fogpatches @ 6/1
3.00 - Singing Banjo @ 9/1
3.35 - Sporting John @ 15/8
 
Had a L15 of:
1.50 Fontaines Collonges
2.25 Mister Fogpatches 3.00 Singing Banjo
3.35 Botox Has

I've also had an e/w Patent of slightly bigger priced fancies, fully expect them all to be PU but thought worth a go with some of them.

1.50 - Dame Du Soir - Think at around 18/20s worth chancing after an adequate reappearance this season, form ties her in with 130 odd horses. Stamina is the big question but she's not tried this trip out on good ground so feel it's worth a stab!

3.00 - Santini - Call me mental but if he still has some of his ability he could well excel in a handicap, think ground will go against him anyhow.

3.35 - Kansas City Chief - Can't knock the old boys form round Cheltenham and he continues off the same mark he ran in the hurdle in November behind the top 2 in the marker, certainly doesn't warrant the big price he is imo, guessing there's just nothing sexy about him keeping that price big.
 
2.25 - Mister Fogpatches @ 6/1
3.00 - plan of attack @ 5/1
3.35 - Botox Has e/w @ 10/1
My three for today placed yesterday
 
We will know our fate early on with mister fogpatches

He needs to get into a jumping rhythm otherwise he takes half the fences home with him
 
Hopefully Undersupervision wins the next, but I do think Eva's Oscar could prove a shrewd exchange in play bet. Stays and stays and stays, but sometimes gets outpaced. Every chance it looks totally an utterly beat at a massive price, then stays on past horses. Let's have a go....
 
Washington looks like a horse that will thrive in big field handicaps

These small fields don't suit him at all
 
I’ve done a trixie of Singing Banjos, Botox Has & Farinet.
 
Anyone else thing that Hartur D'oudairies in the first, wasn’t the most inspiring of rides?

Was he just out for a Cheltenham sighter and he’s a potential plot horse for the Skeltons/McManus, come the Festival?
 
DM on MF there. Can't believe he gave him that much to do!
 
Mister fogpatches has run a massive race

Why they let commodore and santini get 20 lengths in front with no effort on a track that suits front runners il never know

He looks like one for the future to me, probably won't see him being overfaced this year

agreed - these were known good jumpers and the other jockeys seemed to be hoping they would tire and/or make mistakes
Rocco's early mistake blew his chance
 
Thats the first and last time I back plan of attack

Jumped the last 4 obstacles terribly cost him any chance of winning

Was absolutely cruising into it at that point
