    please dont talk down to me grasshopper explain how handicaps work i am a genius when it comes to horse racing and it aint only me who says it i no i am new on here and i dont wana argue with any1 unless i find them talkin alot of rubbish and you aint you do speak your opinion and i think your right it was a brilliant perfromance especially for a novice and i probably tackled you bout your 1st post to strike up conversation i reckon he coulda pushed best mate close in the gold cup if hed of ran as a novice.i came home the evening best mate won it the third time and i thought fit and well strong flow has a big shout next year but the injury took his top class edge away and wasnt same horse since.

    Strong flow joins a load of  Hennessy winners to fall by the waste side. Its a bad luck race to win.<br>Teeton Mill , Coome Hill , Gingembre /Be my Royal , Ever Blessed.

    Looks a good race to get 3 wins on the board before Haydock/Newbury, and some proper competition.

    cheers for that GH. He needs a few more runs to get fit, he doesn’t do a stitch at home. the step up in trip and softer ground should bring out a big improvement. <br>Does anybody know if the race is on tv? going to have to pull a sickie! don’t want the boss cathing me!

    Just starting to look at IG’s race now.

    <br>Unfortunately there’s no way I can pull a sickie on Wednesday- I’m trying to plan next Tuesday though lol;)

    On the subject of TV coverage, did anyone see a story a few weeks ago about Racing UK linking up with Corals meaning that Racing Replays from top-class tracks like Cheltenham, Newmarket and Newbury are shown free-to-air?

    If so, has this started yet and at what time- Straight after each day’s racing???

    Vague recollection think it was the races on Channel 4 that will be free to watch or something similar.

    Looked on the racing uk site and the cuttings library of the RP site and can’t see anything.

    I often push 432 in hope!

    Back to the thread, good luck RL, being positive IG will win more easily back at Cheltenham and over 3m.

    A good test tomorrow. Several last time out winners, a useful Nicholls horse plus the Pipe trained Zeta’s River.

    Think we will see an altogether more impressive performance from IG on a track and trip that is made for him. He has never looked like falling in any of his races and these fences could be the making of him.

    <br>Luckily I put Racing UK on last week and they were showing Rooster Booster’s race at Huntingdon live free-to-air so I don’t know what the situation is but anyway good luck tomorrow RL and irisgift1 if you’re still around, as Aidan says perfect conditions for the horse tomorrow and I want him to win every race until he meets Best Mate.

    I look forward to it.

    IG has a terrific engine and, with that being more of a factor tomorrow, I hope he’ll show us a big step up in performance.
