    Well done Bobby what a fantastic looking horse he is and hard to believe that just over 3 years ago he was winning over 1m1f at Gowran Park owned by Sheik Hamdam..made it all look so easy…Jac

    Nice one Bobby, 25/1 was well ahead of the SP. I didn’t see any of the races today, spent
    most of it on the travel down to Statford. I stuck my bets on this morning before I left,
    and backed all 5 of my competition bets. Fortunately for me Mohaayed (in Pat’s Saturday
    handicap competition) saved my bacon as the rest bombed. I’ve just watched the race, and
    he looks fairly decent on that running. Hills boosted 20s to 22s so it gives a bit of
    ammunition for the festive racing. I’ve just heaped a bit more on Bristol De Mai at 13/2
    for the King George and taken the 33s with Hills for the KG GC double :good:

    Thanks guys

    Graham. Hope it was a good journey. You probably had a better day than me, I was working. It was a long day lol

    Good luck with BDM, think we’ll see a different horse from last years renewal, and I nearly went with him, but went with Native River and Coneygree. If Coneygree gets pulled, I’ll jump onto Bristol.

    Good luck with them Bob, Coneygree may be 11 going on 12, but he’s only run 6 times since
    his GC win in 2015. He looked well last time out at Cheltenham leading for most of the
    race, and it wasn’t surprising he tired at the death as it was his comeback race after
    a year off and he was giving heaps of weight away. It could be a pointer that it was the
    only race that day that was won in under standard time. If he has come on from that, and
    more importantly if he is sound, he’s no forlorn hope. I started typing this with the
    intention of saying he’s tempting, but I’ve just talked myself into having a go.
    33s e/w it is then :good:

    Well done, VTC !

    I had a strange, pre Christmas head rush and backed the Noonan / Pipe horse.

    On a different note, I thought it was an interesting run from Janika earlier on the card. Jacob gave it far too much ground to make up but then that has protected it’s handicap mark…

    Tryptych, not sure about this but possibly he could be the first 2000 Guineas runner ever to win at Cheltenham. :unsure: He ran in Gleneagles Irish Guineas
