Might be a bit of a gamble happening in the last three races at punchestown with the three sean aherne trained horses, if anyone wants to have a pop at the treble, although not sure if many bookies would accept it. Two of them off the track for a while, one making it's debut, all three with a good senior jockey on board.

Was going to put in the Out for the season thread but would likely have wound people up too much.:highly_amused:

But - worse than any horse being out....

Rachel Riley is not on countdown for a few weeks :sorrow::crushed:

And worse still, she's been replaced by a bloke whose hair grows out of a hole in the top of his head.
Literally, a Muppet.

Sky onto it, not allowing them to be combined
 
Is it not tomorrow the weights are released? They normally release to the media and embargo them for 24 hours or have done recently.

Theyve ditched the embargo and press launch fiasco, as it was allowing media journo's to back horses before the weights were announced, and causing the BHA grief even though it wasnt their decision to embargo, it was the racecourse's decision.

So the release should be to everyone at midday tomorrow, as far as I am aware

They might just being cautious, as so far they don't seem to be getting punted off the boards. It may be just regular punters putting two and two together and thinking they're onto something.

The profiles of the horses though does have all the hallmarks of people trying to land a touch. Could be nothing though.
 
Hey everyone! What time roughly do we think all the markets will go crazy today? It it lunchtime or like more like 3pm ish ?
 
New/revised marks from the Adonis:

St Pancras 130 new
Mondo Man 124 new
Sauvignon 128 (-5)
 
Like everyone on here waiting in anticipation for the handicap weights to be released

Historically there is always a few that would appear to be let off lightly and a few that will appear to be harshly treated

One I expect to be hammered by the handicapper is Woodooh

The Elliott camp must of been disgusted watching Joyeuse romp home at Newbury
 
Constitution Hill & Lulamba seemingly working fine on the gallops at Kempton. Not that there was much panic on here but a couple of people on social media trying to get the rumours going :monkey:
 
Not seen a Hunters chase thread

suggestion by Jennings on UTA that JP has purchased a prominent horse in the betting for this

Obvious one would be Willitgoahead

Might push it into Favourite if it was him and Derek chose to ride
