Ditch the Juvenile hcp and have a few big money sellers!

It’s almost impossible to better the racing at Cheltenham, but if anything will, then it will be added prize money. I can’t wait for that ‘showcase’ meeting to start, signalling another great season ahead for Cheltenham and jump racing alike.

Well, it’s not like every single race outside of the Festival was oversubscribed….

I never said any horse did miss Cheltenham because prize money wasn’t enough did I? I am not taking about the festival alone here you know, or did you not read the actual article WW.
The point I was making is that this extra £400,000 prize money is to be added across all Cheltenham’s fixtures, not just the festival – so if a £10,000 race suddenly becomes a high profile £30,000 race then will this not attract a better field?
