    Shiskin backed into favouritism currently 7-4.

    Madness. Utter madness.

    Henderson’s yard aren’t really known for a gamble so this must be coming from public know nothing money.

    He’s talented enough to make a fool of what I said but given his last two runs I just can’t have it!

    I’ve backed him , fakir is a decent horse but isn’t a superstar , If he is fit he’ll win

    I think that Fakir is a very nice price here, but at my level of betting not a tempting betting proposition. Therefore, I will have a bet for interest on First Flow 18-1 ew

    Great training performance by Nicky Henderson and his Sevenbarrows operation.

    Well done HDLG, I was totally wrong. Plenty fit enough and good enough.

    Nice to see him back – still think he should have been going to the QMCC but with no Allaho the Ryanair looks his to lose now

    Wouldn’t be a fan of even money favs at Cheltenham but I’d only be taking something on if I had something to take it on with and the reality is the Ryanair without Allaho was a G2 standard race and Shishkins just thrashed a G2 winner in form in Pic D’Orhy so its his to lose. Shame we didn’t get the clash with Allaho but then Hendo wouldn’t be coming this way with a fit Allaho imo.

    Great to see a top horse back and I think there is just as good a chance of him running in the Gold Cup now as The Ryanair, which leaves the bookies going NRNB as open as a shooting gallery for decent combinations. Bet365 went 14s for the Gold Cup after the race, but that has gone to 10s, which I think is still decent value. Combine that with three or four who will shorten drastically if Shishkin misses the Ryanair and you have the best chance of the year at getting massive value.

    Great to see him back , they,’ll play safe and snaff up a easy Ryanair , more tempting the King George ,this could be a cracker come December

    Can’t see a Gold Cup run being on the cards, not sure 3m2f at Cheltenham will be his cup of tea and trying 3m+ for the first time in the Gold Cup seems out of character for Hendo to do – outside of Blue Lord (who could run in the QMCC) there appears no other genuine G1 horses in the Ryanair.

    If he wins that then I would imagine the King George would be the logical next step if they want to go up in trip again……and whatever happens in that race would likely tell them whether the Gold Cup would be an option next season.

    Blue Lord isnt going to beat him , turned over easily last time , he’ll do well to get placed
