    Coneygree is surely 3rd favourite because of ground doubts? It luckily came right this time…if you said now it would definitely be soft he would be favourite and very much the one to beat…do you take that risk though….the better bet is the King George…unbelievable that he’s double the price of Vautour….by the time boxing day comes I will have more money riding on it than any other horse in my lifetime…

    Surprised by Don Poli, looked a bit slow, tho of course he can be forgiven one bad end-of season run.

    New to the forum.
    Iv backed nicholls canyon ew for champion hurdle 20/1.
    Douvan arkle 3/1
    Shaneshill jlt 17.5 down to 12.0
    Kilultagh vic rsa 24.0 hopefully goes chasing.
    Outlander 41.0 rsa.
    Smaller stake on Vroum Vroum mag for ryanair 17.5. The logical target but no idea if will run in this.
    Don cossack gold cup 8.0
    Djakadam 15.5
    Hopefully iv got the right races but as we all know, we will still be unsure the week before.
    I’m also interested in novice hurdlers zabayr yorkhill and townshend but no idea of targets.

    Was a much bigger fan of the flat before but went to cheltenham this year for the first time. And have to say after punchestown iv been bored with the flat this season and waiting for the start of the nh ever since. Much prefer seeing quality horses come back year after year.

    Money queuing up for nicholls canyon on betfair at 15.5 when 20s are freely available on oddschecker. When ever someone puts up 15.0 it’s gone within minutes. Somebody is obviously in the know and is restricted elsewhere.

    Any news on Tell us More? Still haven’t lost hope in this once highly touted horse, always likely to improve over fences and one I’m keeping an eye on for the JLT

    Looking forward to seeing disko out today. A good test against the well touted jetsteam jack who gordon rated highly for the champion bumper. Hopefully disko will pick this up on his way to the royal bond.

    Thinking of dabbling in the ante-post markets for the handicaps and think I’ve found a few that are overpriced it’s just a matter of them turning up.

    ULTIMA BUSINESS SOLUTIONS HANDICAP CHASE – NED STARK 25/1 EW
    CHAPS NOVICES HANDICAP CHASE – ANATOL 20/1 EW
    CORAL CUP – ALL YOURS 20/1 EW
    COUNTY HURDLE – WAXIES DARGLE 25/1 EW
    GRAND ANNUAL – CROCO BAY 20/1 EW

    Anatol’s the one though, I’m pretty sure he’s not been turned out since that super-bold showing at Ascot. I may be wrong?

    Very dangerous game playing the Handicaps at this stage. I’d wait for nrnb if I was you.

    Hello all, long term reader of the forum so thought I would make my first post.

    I have been stung in previous years betting Ante Post so have stayed within the to win any race market.

    Shantou Village @ 14’s
    Killulagh Vic @ 12’s
    Yanworth @ 12’s
    Barters Hill @ 14,s, 12’s, 10’s
    Camping Ground @ 14’s, 12’s
    Aux Ptit Soin @ 16’s
    I got Vautour @ 16’s with PP after the GC – still can’t believe they did this

    I like him for The Ryanair Charlie, but they didn’t sound too convinced about that, but I do feel that’s where he’ll end up, and I’d give him a chance as well.
