If there was such a thing as a straight 4cast I could have been a billionaire after that post
As it is I’m content with the winner, the second and the SFC at 80/1 and ended up having a real touch…..now you can call that luck if you like but then what happened is the telephone line went down and was off for 5 hours which meant I couldn’t have another bet….I can assure you if it hadn’t I’d have lost a bundle as the only horse that I fancied for the rest of the day that came close was Nicky’s in the last…….Now that is what I call luck. Still haven’t seen te Gold Cup though which is a bummer.

…….I am gutted….jumped every fence with Barizan albeit with my eyes closed..
I still haven’t worked out why AP wasn’t riding him……..Not knocking the guy that rode it but surely would have won with him on board.

Thanks Moe but I think RUK block todays replays internationally somehow to save bandwith.or whatever…had this several times in the past..If I replay Binny race on Tuesday it comes up instantly but when I try todays races get none of them…probably be ok in a few hours time
What a great race – backed Barizan and some ride Tom O’Brien gave him. Fair play to the winner for being the only one who could get to him, but a shame for Evan Williams’ team.

I was shouting stop you bastid so blame me
Backed Barizan at 25/1 ew on Friday evening. Thought he boasted quite a similar profile to Katchit – plenty of experience, course and distance form, they even had similar ratings on the flat.
It was a very canny, enterprising ride from TJ, but I felt he could have got a breather into his horse at some stage of the race. As they started the descent to the second last I thought ‘Keep him together, keep him together’ – during that point of the race he nearly doubled his 8L lead!
Most, if not all, of the winners of the race this century were flat recruits, so I couldn’t fancy Soldatino.
Carlito Brigante was the one to take out of the race.
