    Is she likely to be diverted to the supreme now?

    I sincerely hope not for those of you who are on at double figures for this!

    I’ve got her in a lucky 15 and a double to run in this but I wouldn’t be surprised if Nico says she might go for the bigger pot now that race has been blown wide open.

    Did I just hear someone say 8/13 for this race now? This is what really boils my pi55 with Cheltenham these days! :wacko:

    She’s not 8/13. 7-4 mostly.

    That’s still horribly short.

    You’ve got to have a decent ante post book by mid summer these days to get a price which might seem fair on the day if they run well in their prep races!

    What did Henderson say there?

    I was in the kitchen telling the mrs to turn the heat down on the pan because she’s burning the onions and garlic!

    So I missed what he said and probably going to be served a sub par lasagne later!

    Nico saying good enough for a Supreme, however Henderson preferring this.

    In other words, let’s go for an easier target.

    The four day festival. Don’t you love it?

    It’s confined to mares, it’s confined to novices, it’s a race that absolutely shouldn’t even exist.

    Said no one who has a big ante-post price about Luccia ever.

    It’s exactly why the shockingly priced runners of these races exist!

    Get rid of this, the mares hurdle/chase/Ryanair/Brown (and maybe one or two others) and you get rid of the issue of odds on shots 2 months out in all bar extreme instances like this years Champion Hurdle.

    “onions and garlic….lasagne”

    This “Fez” folder needs more onion and garlic-infested lasagne and fewer “Fez” jollys at odds shorter than they’ll be on the day due to NRNB.

    Chezza needs to eat this entire lasagne to make sure it’s not burned and will be to TC’s liking – after he’s been cooked another one, that is!

    Tizaards you are right; the Festival has lost the white-hot competition, now 4 novice chases!!

    You’re welcome to it all Ian.

    But you also have to take your fair share of the strain and listen to her babble on about happy valley and Vera for hours and agree to pick her up from her mates when she’s steaming and then be at her beck and call the next day to fetch her cups of tea and chocolate!

    Deal?

    Chezza’s suddenly not feeling quite so hungry after all.

    This fella had the right idea: https://youtu.be/REFlR9gCHSo

    4 novice chases. But you could say 5, given that promising novice chasing mares are likely to be aimed at the Mares Chase.
