Hills.......Teahupoo/El Fabiolo Today/Stayers/CC 50/1

Not sure if there's any value there but sounds good when you say it :biggrin-new: Both heavily backed today.

…yep, I posted that yesterday on the previous page having had a little interest myself.

I've just done a few calculations and for it to be value both will have to be shortened to less than 5/2 for their festival races should they win today. As I said, looks good on paper but not in real terms.

Brandy Love & Mares Hurdle 33-1

Lossiemouth & Mares Hurdle 7-1; CH 20-1; Ark 25-1
Gala Marceau & Mares Hurdle 66-1
 
That Gala Marceau 66/1 has to be a no brainer.
I really like her for the Mares but I’d expect her to be the bridesmaid once again tomorrow, but, should the fav be off colour or over the top she GM beat her you’d be sitting on a great voucher…

Didn’t take it or see it but the Jonbon price is looking not bad now.

Won that easily, if it wasn’t for the mistake he would have won even further imo.

Hes been beaten twice by 1 superstar and 1 potential star, he’s a potential star in open company himself.

Yep. Probably puts an end to C Hill going CC now as well.
 
Any chance Jonbon steps up to the Ryanair? Couldn’t see him laying a glove on El Fab. I think Jonbon is a very good 2 miler, but not a great one.

He'd have to get beat a couple of times before the festival for that I'd think

Fair enough. But well beaten in a Supreme and an Arkle (albeit by better horse). Yes he’ll no doubt mop up every 2m race in England only to run into one better at Cheltenham. I’ve only backed him for the Ryanair, hence why the question was asked and my pocket talking :excitement:

I’d say no chance considering he’s just easily beaten open 2m horses with the exception of Edwardstone, who will be 9 going 10 next season. Could be a nice early season match up in the tingle creek.

No shame in who he’s been beaten by, he’s a very very good horse, think he gets knocked for that, wrongfully imo.
