    Put my free Paddy fiver on Minella Melody ahead of her run tomorrow. I was impressed with her win in the Solerina here last year giving away bits of weight here and there and I feel she could have won by more.

    Ha Concertista made that look easy, Townend was just sitting there when everyone else was riding.

    I’d say the chances of benie going to the mares chase are much better looking at how concertista did that

    Concertista made it looked easy, but being Mullins I think he’ll go for the champion, rather than this although this is the more realistic choice.

    You've got to accentuate the positive.
    Eliminate the negative.
    Latch on to the affirmative.
    Don't mess with mister in between.

    Nicely done by Honeysuckle today and she hurdled better than she sometimes does too. That’s her trip and I hope she does go for the mares again.

    (As an aside- Jerry Hannon really needs to watch out for fast finishing horses instead of panicking and yelping like a rat has run up his trousers at the dinner table).

    Personally I dont like him as a commentator at all

    People rave about the roaring bull commentary but it just sounded ridiculous to me

    Hes no Des Scahill

    Just compare Des’ commentary on the 2015 irish champion hurdle to that roaring bull one

    Anyone think this is a realistic target for Verdana Blue? Has classy form over 2m, and if gets decent ground, should see out the trip. With Honeysuckle and Benie out, could be worth a punt at the prices agsinst Concertista.

    Went with Great White Shark here at 14’s just before Final Decs, but not the best bet, as can get 20’s now, so topped up.

    I’ll probably add her four places as well.

    DOesnt bother me what the fav beat last year at Cheltenham, the way she powered up that hill like an F1 car was insane, no way would Roksana have had the pace to keep up with her. Concertista all
    day for me!

    Concertista for me for the 1st leg. Have her in a win double with Monkfish. 3-1.

    Good job there aren’t any crowds this year.

    They’d have been booing the winner in to the winners enclosure. :negative:
