Cross Country 2021

Twitter is a fucking cesspool of misinformation. I read a tweet from David Cottin and just assumed it was real. Lesson learned I suppose.

Absolutely. There’s more than one tipster on there that runs a paid for service and absolutely gets a kick out of all the bullshit rumours & drama. Pathetic

I think Easysland is going to get turned over and we’ll see a big priced winner.
 
Happy Le Breuil is still here, can’t work out if he comes here or for the Kim Muir

Defi Des Carras - from memory I think a few on here liked Some Neck, Defi was 2nd by a SHD in December over this course to some neck. So has form at Cheltenham, understand pulled up in last run, but if you forgive that run and he is a whopping 50/1 chance currently with WH (33/1 - Bet365). certainly worth a poke at them prices..

7 1/2 lengths behind Easyland in France back in October 19, moved to Charlie Mann in December 2020, sent to the Cheltenham xcounty in December for new yard and as said above only beaten by a SHD, 8 year old and would hope for more improvement to come.

I agree as well Bert, I do think Easyland can be beat in this race and with Tiger Roll off sorts, I think I will side E/W with this at big prices. :indecisiveness:

I'm on board ew, backed him with the ew returns after his Cheltenham run when someone on here gave him a good write up beforehand. He jumped brilliantly all the way round and would have won but for jockey inexperience (to be diplomatic) on the run in. He and Some Neck (7lb claimer on board) were getting a decent chunk of weight from most rivals that day though. Definitely a good ew shout at a price.

Good to hear I am on the right track with him then, hopefully should get a decent run for our money here. Good luck :encouragement:

I just got 50/1 DDC NRNB from B365
 
I like the angle but do you think it goes off much shorter on the day? There’s also a possibility you’ll get 4-5 places as I can’t see too many more dropping out.
