Well done landafar, got the place and possibly would have done better hung on to.
Value Is EverythingAnother heartwarming interview on 5LiveExtra with the trainer. Their coverage has been a real positive of the media circus this week.
Did Tizzaaaards Cider back the winner?
Hope so.
If so – drink up yee!Value Is EverythingGood to see one of the big trainers not winning
Not a race I’d consider betting in so was cheering everything on against its on the line and billaway
“Be interested to see the head on coming to the last”.
My thoughts exactly tbf.
I noticed AP McCoy quickly skipped around talking about his employee’s jockey.
Value Is Everything“Be interested to see the head on coming to the last.”
Definitely. I was really cheering the winner after that, in your face shamateurs!Yeah of course he was entitled, a perfect bit of professional gamesmanship and a perfectly professional ride. That’s why I was cheering for the amateur.
Thanks folks, ran a nice race to be be third.
Next stop that hunters chase night ..fingers x“Or OR124”
Thanks for confirming everything I always suspected about you, Mike.
I always thought in reality you know next to nothing about this game but, in fact, it’s even less than that.
Sine Nomine had an OR of 124 going into this race, you can add 7lb for her gender allowance and she beat a gelding with one of 142, the general standard for this contest.

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"Well, on the plus side, I had 16/1, 14/1 and 12/1 about the winner ante-post, but I didn’t actually win much on the race because I also had 10/1 Premier Magic and bottled it and saved on Its On The Line at 5/2 AND Ferns Lock!
The best Point judge I know had a really good bet on the winner, though.
As for the race, I thought Its On The Line ran to his mark and ran his race, but the mare made it third time lucky at Cheltenham and continued her progress under an inspired ride from John Dawson to make the most of the gender allowance and get up to win.
She’s only an 8yo and there’s more good races in her.
Time Leader has run a stormer and a career best over a trip plenty far enough for him as I’d say the Aintree Foxhunters’ (he was fifth in it last year) would suit him better.
D’Jango, clearly sweetened up by a change of yards, has run right up to his mark to be fourth, old Billaway has plugged on to be fifth and even older Shantou Flyer was sixth.
Ferns Lock never gave himself a chance to stay, Premier Magic and Quintin’s Man have disappointed and Samcro is the reason why these regressive former stars should not be touched with a barge pole in these races.
Cracking race – looking forward to Aintree now where Macklin and Famous Clermont may enter calculations.

“So why didn’t you tip the winner to us?”
Because I’m horrible, Moehat. Anyway, a good judge like you doesn’t need tips – I bet you had bundles on the mare!
