They'll know by Monday morning what Lossie is doing.
So that will help, so it then boils down to if they want her to run against Wodhooh, but got well beaten the last day getting 8lb i think.
Stayers hasn't got any easier either as it stands.
So they may press the button Monday, but the way he talks makes it sound like he;d rather hover around on the Tuesday morning and go graded.

I’m going to back for the coral. If she’s declared she shortens, if she doesn’t, money back. Can’t have her for the other two races.
 
The big Guinness breakfasts this year
Monday hotel du vin
Tuesday curious cafe
Wednesday the ivy
Thursday cote de brasserie

I will report back with ratings

There is a story or two from here!! We were sat opposite Jamie insole and his girlfriend at the time. I ordered the chicken en pappillotte. Thought the baking paper was filo pastry and ate the lot!!
Then poured a bottle of red down my beautiful Italian white shirt

Anyone got any recommendations for a decent scran other than the usual, Indian etc?

My old man is heading down for his first trip to Cheltenham with a couple of mates and said I’d head out for dinner with him on the Tuesday.

Reminds me of another funny story - cos We've been there (think it was that one anyhow).
We went down for new years day meet a few years ago, and ate there on new years eve.
It was quiet in town (montpelier) so we went to eat about 10-30pm.
Not one for all the midnight hugging with strangers bollocks cos of my slight autism. :unsure:

But it was also quiet in the restaurant and we were the last ones to finish and leave.
When we left and started walking away from the restaurant, all the staff came outside clapping and cheering.

Our lass said, "what are they clapping at the sarky bastards".

It was obviously the stroke of midnight and she thought they were clapping us for eventually leaving :ROFLMAO:

I am potentially move jobs this year so have to be circumspect with my AL, everyone has of course absolutely loaded me up with meetings on Tuesday.

In years gone by id be fuming, but with the changes it's just a procession of staying handicap chases so I'll live
