    Going for a small bet on Bobs Worth each way. His form hasn’t been great this year but had a fine record over hurdles at Cheltenham, albeit many years ago, and 50-1 for a Gold Cup winner seems worth taking a chance

    Well done.
    Great effort by bobs worth. If you said to me sprinter mtoy and bobs worth would all be in the frame in the champion hurdle the champion chase and world hurdle, id have laughed you out the door.

    Thanks. Seems obvious that he’d be placed now – wish I’d put more on him!

    I wonder what odds you’d have got on that Sprinter Sacre – Bobs Worth Each way double!

    Thistlecrack was tremendous, the performance of the week in my opinion. Stayers hurdle winners have a sorry record as chasers though.

    But they very much haven’t followed the path this one has taken, nor has any, in my memory, been nearly as impressive.

    Apart from the fact that Mullins could have Vautour, Douvan, Djakadam, Black Hercules, Don Poli and God knows what else in the Gold Cup, if Thistlecrack takes to fences without trouble, that engine will drive him anywhere.

    So impressive and showed such pace I wish he’d been entered for the Champion Hurdle

    Mind-blowing performance and a most severe annihilation. What struck me was how he shadowed the strong galloping Cole Harden without breaking sweat and then just scorched them all off with the minimum of fuss. The opposition quickly turned to toast. This horse has cataclysmic firepower.
