I will eat a years supply of humble pie if Menorah finishes ahead of Dunguib. He won’t finish in the top 3 imo.
Forpadytheplaster won’t win the Champion Chase, Khyber Kim won’t win C.H and Big Bucks won’t be beaten in WH
Watch Menorah, Forpady and Khyber Kim win on the bridle
Shaun, If Dunguib was your horse and things are how they now are re setbacks, withdrawals etc, where would you run him?
Champion hurdle all the way, purely for the reason that he is 7 now and time may run out with a view to running him over fences in the future.
The biggest slice of humble pie will defineately go to all those knockers on here of
Twist Magic
,who think he cant get up the Cheltenham hill! Obviously if he fails,its more Pie for me now!
Of all the odds on shots at the moment (Kauto, Big Bucks’, Dunguib, Masterminded) Kauto is the only one i’m not convinced will win. I think the ground is absolutely key to the outcome of that race. The others I think will all win comfortably regardless of conditions.
I’ve been banging on about Tranquil Sea in the Ryanair for a while now and his demise will have me eating the most humble pie.
My Bismarcks are
Dunguib
Captain Cee Bee/Sizing Europe
Zaynar
Bensalem/The Package
Monkerhostin (to be placed)
Rite Of Passage
Long Run/Punchestowns/Diamond Harry
Twist Magic
Mourad (great in-running lay)
Elegant Concorde/Hidden Universe
Tranquil Sea/Barber’s Shop
Tell MassiniIf the above return a level-stakes profit I’m in the grubber next week.

Some nice sinking Denis, perhaps you should take up a pitch on the rails

As David Ashforth says, when you’re right you’ve got to shout about it!
Sizing Europe winning and Imperial Commander staying, 2 humble pies over here please, no sauce.
I’m due a big slice of humble pie for my choice of moniker after a disasterous Festival, two thirds of my hard earned kitty gone in four days of undisciplined betting. Worst Cheltenham for many years.
Luckily I’ve retained enough profit on the season to pay for the new sash and case windows going in the back of our house next week plus my usual starting kitty for next season and a few hundred quid to place the odd bet between now and the end of the season.
Not that bad really but it’s still a pretty substantial loss on this week The only horses I visualise backing between now and the end of the season are
RASH MOVE, easily the best Hunter in The UK
LOUIS PASTEUR Very unlucky loser on his only run under rules, entered at Kempton on Tuesady
DUNGUIB if he takes on the expereienced hurdlers at Punchestown with some reservations about the jockey
MARY SPRING RICE likely to go in at a good price next time in a bumper, especially under an experienced jockey.Talk to you all next Autumn, I’m going to enjoy the profit I’ve retained every time I look out at the woods behind the house.
Disaster of a festival. I’m due a serving for every thread I contributed to bar the mares hurdle

I said
"The biggest piece of humble pie would be if Sizing Europe who I raved about before he won the Irish Champion hurdle wins the Arkle. I say he has absolutely no chance of winning and Captain Cee Bee will destroy him."
You all have my permission to call me Billy Bunter anytime you like
