    Oh dear,

    More Of That could go for the JLT. :negative:

    No More Heroes a bigger banker than UDS or Douvan if More Of That doesn’t turn up IMO

    Whoah the pony Zar – NMH didn’t battle it out last year, I know ground didn’t suit but there are question marks there. Blacklion, black Hercules (surely would go here if MOT doesn’t) will relish the test of this race and hill. Personally, as impressive as NMH has been, I’d be a little cautious at this juncture.

    Douvan is absolute bullet proof

    Seeyouatmidnight not very impressive beating a pretty average horse with a very high head carriage and consequently a difficult ride. Have to think if Cook had the material to have attacked the favourite he might have gone close.

    I’m now all over MOT after AP’s win today especially with the better ground.

    Looks like it could be a cracking race
    I’m on No More Heroes ante post but am worried about More of That.

    The ground for me has made More Of That the banker of the day….on a softer surface I think it would have been a fair bit closer and a tough battle between the two….now More Of That has his ground at his course it’s a formality for me…

    Blaklion and Roi Des Francs are both out and out stayers which is more than can be said for some of these. Seeyouatmidnight struggles at this trip!
    NMH is a dodge!
    Shaneshill won’t get home
    Le Mercurey aint good enough!
    Vyta De Roc could be the fly in the ointment as his form has been doubly franked today
    That leaves More Of That who should win but is too short a price for me.

    I will go with Blaklion e/w and hope he stays close enough to catch them up the hill!!

    No More Heroes will jump them silly. He’s a natural, and takes little out of himself, unlike MOT who always seems to me to run a bit with the choke out and is a workmanlike fencer.

    NMH has a few gears too, and I believe he could be one of the most impressive winners of the meeting and will get a shortish Gold Cup quote

    Changed my mind and agree with you, going wont be too quick and he will jump superbly allowing him to win impressively

    Was worried about form of the yard, but with a winner and second yesterday – O’Neil seems to come in to form as Cheltenham starts every year – as long as More Of That jumps well my ante-post bet looks good.

    No More Heroes is a worthy opponent and he is a terrific jumper, but does he act on the ground? :unsure:

    Backed Seeyouatmidnight (could get a soft lead) with a saver on Vyta Du Dock (only finds what’s necessary) both on the betting without market.

    An expensive tendon injury for us No More Heroes fans. MOT ran a remarkable race given he bled.

    Fingers crossed for both NMH and MOT.

    NMH got an injury? Didn’t see that, typical! Hope he’s back for next year.
