Thank you all.
4:50 Spindleberry 5/1 WINMay 1, 2026 at 16:27 #1765475Nathan, he was just starting to come into it then catastrophe struck with that loose horse.
May 1, 2026 at 16:28 #1765476WD Ruby. Good winners are hard to get around here.
I was just lucky enough to get the reverse forecast with Salvator Mundi and Irish Panther.
May 1, 2026 at 16:30 #1765477The best thing that ever happened Wonderwall was to land in 2nd over the last.
It’s On The Line always stops in front.
May 1, 2026 at 16:57 #1765485Cracking race, what a good mare. Only By Night gave it plenty, no disgrace.
May 1, 2026 at 17:07 #1765486A brilliant mare. Would’ve been good enough for 2nd in the Champion Chase this year.
May 1, 2026 at 17:23 #1765489Noble Park 12/1 WIN only, because the form has been franked.
Yoradreamer 40/1 EW and I Am Lorenzo 50/1 both 5 places just for small money.May 1, 2026 at 17:31 #1765492Well done, GM. 4/1 was a nice price
May 1, 2026 at 17:34 #1765493Get In. Thanks Ruby.
Townend almost complete ballsed that up at the start. He was foolishly anticipating a false start and lost his place due to that. He then very nearly came off at the first.
A great ride from then on though.
May 1, 2026 at 17:35 #1765494WD GM
I think something has broken down behind there, maybe Yoradreamer? Not mentioned by Gary O’Brien afterwards and he usually spots them, but it looked bad.
May 1, 2026 at 17:42 #1765497Green, I think it could be between Yoradreamer and Port Joulain. Looked very bad though.
May 1, 2026 at 17:49 #1765502Aburde to win the Champion Hurdle (without Lossiemouth) 10/1
May 1, 2026 at 17:51 #17655036:00 Backed Echoing Silence last night at 14/1 WIN only. Added Bon Viveur 33/1 EW.
Quite some money coming for the HDB horse….May 1, 2026 at 18:11 #1765508“Green, I think it could be between Yoradreamer and Port Joulain. Looked very bad though.”
Think you could be right. I was trying to keep an eye on Port Joulain as I’d backed him but the camera angle changes often and only saw the horse from the back, just could see pale colours. Race results say Yoradreamer UR and Port Joulain PU, so think it’s him, poor chap.
May 1, 2026 at 18:12 #1765509Townend needed a good jump at the last there and got it thankfully. I think the fav has run flat overall.
He was too short to bet straight but I have him in an acca and heart was in my mouth with Cobden closing like a freight train.
Have 3 up with 2 to go now. Wodhooh & True Love in the Guineas.
May 1, 2026 at 18:13 #1765511I hope Bon Viveur got up ok, otherwise it would be quite a bad “double” for Brian Hayes.
May 1, 2026 at 18:26 #17655131/4 in a G1 hurdle is quite short. Lossiemouth to beat Wilful and Absurde in straight forecasts
