    What made you back that one Mike? I see the horse is entered at Sandown on Saturday, did Gary Moore speak highly of him in a stable tour or something?

    St Donats and Jupiter Du Gite are the only two I could see giving Lossiemouth a race in this.

    Think I saw earlier that St Donats is 20/1 for this with Betfair sportsbook if you have an account with them Ian. If the horse does run in the Triumph would you expect it to have a warm up race either over here or in France? Or do you think it’d be more likely they go straight to Cheltenham?

    Bo zenith has some nice form in france

    When going through it I did notice emmet mullins won a Grade 2 at auteil with mctigue beating St Donats. His two runs since stink of boodles plot job.

    “What made you back that one Mike?”

    All being well he’ll hose up on Saturday. Beat one of Willie’s in France who bolted up before Xmas. So falls into the ‘could be anything’ category.

    Fair enough Mike, probably a good value bet then!

    Iv thought of something called goshen syndrome

    Because Gary Moore had goshen his juveniles now always get backed for the triumph

    But will he ever get another goshen, will he have another that is better than the mullins and elliot best ones

    Unlikely imo

    His other talking horse this year was inneston who got battered by his much less fancied stablemate Jupiter du gite

    Maybe Bo Zenith will prove my goshen syndrome theory to be false in march

    6 of the last 10 winners were trained away from them two big stables tbf, should’ve been 7 really. Time will tell if Gary Moore has a very good one here or not.

    Quillixios was Gordon’s in all but name

    Blood Destiny very impressive at Fairyhiuse just now – Nusret a well-beaten third and he was 16 lengths behind Lossiemouth last time out.

    I think Lossiemouth will take all the beating, but I’ve had an ew on Scriptwriter at 16-1

    Barry G is all over Blood Destiny for this
    Nusret seemed to be ridden to place. Blood Destiny had forever to save energy

    Cannot see Blood Destiny defeating Lossiemouth while conceding 7lbs.
