think Punjabi came 4 th in the triumph in 2007 as I was on him then – quite consistent when you count last year and this as well – hindsight a wonderful thing
Just have a funny feeling about Katchit – I know hes out of form etc etc but it takes a decent 5 yo to win and when the do usually they are very good horses. This horses record at chelt is second to none – thinking about the other horses that have won/done well at races in the festival and move to the champion hurdle this year – its easy to forget this horse has been there and done it the last 2 yrs. If it develops into a battle up the hill which it may do given the rain that just woke me up (no mean feat
) and he can get his head in front I wouldnt want to be on anything trying to get past. Thats a big if but I know who I will be cheering home – will bring the house down if he can do it Was raining early hours on and off not hard when I went to bed – got woken up just now as it was tonking it down
.. Eased off now but its not going to take much of that to change the going if it hasnt already 1.30 … Kempes (Micheal Flips)
2.05 … Planet of Sound ..Reserve Nap
.. (Origional)
2.40 … Tot O Whiskey (Wichita Lineman)
3.20 … Celestial Halo (Muirhead)
4.00 … Dix Villez (Drombeag)
4.40 … Pagan Starprincess ..NAP
.. (United)
May the horse be with you
Started raining about 15 mins ago – steadily – still very windy. Getting heavier now but how much we have through the night is anyones guess
I’ll do one later and one in the morning – pointless spamming this thread everytime it starts raining then stops again
although it looks like its going to rain soon – ill wait until we have something in the way of proper rain Clouded over now – quite dark. Just started raining – looks very grey – only light to start with
edit – stopped again wish it would make its mind up
Dry,Sunny, quite windy so far – will be starting to dry out and its clothes drying weather
– going to chance it with my washing . Beginning to cloud over a bit now – starting to look showery but dry so far. Forcast I saw was for 1/2 inch rain so its up to the gods now but this is meant to be the last significant rain of the week 
lol 2 mins later a few drops of rain falling but only a few drops – only a shower
Clear now but ended up quite wet this afternoon – we had hail at some point
. Wont be good for Tuesday but I wouldnt rule it out towards the end of the week – depends how it dries up – it is meant to get warmer. The concern would be the supposed rain that is due Monday night could be pretty soft on Tues.difficult to say how much we have had – a series of short sharp blustery showers today – windy and sunny inbetween. Not that cold but meant to be dry later / tonight / tomorrow morning with rain monday night.
update – started raining now – it will go into the ground i think as its steady. If you were stood outside you would get very wet (no I am not going to prove that)
getting heavier now – much more – will definatly go in as its beating on the window
i knew it would rain – we have had that sort of year Another dry day up to now. Sunny AM and overcast PM with the wind picking up mid afternoon. That makes 4 dry days up to now. It is now very windy In afraid to say but will have helped dry it out.
It has just started spitting but hardly noticeable so far as the wind is very strong.
I cant tell you what the weather will be like on the day but I can report it as it is – as i went to gold cup day last year as many years previous – it was special.
We should all hope that its not windy however we all know it can rain a lot
another dry day with strong sunshine this morning – clouded over afternoon and a bit warmer. Must have dried out a bit as it has been cold at night before and much warmer now. There is rain forecast over the next few days and into next week but I dont know how much we will have so I will keep you up to date as good as I can. Very springlike today
so who is going to win
– and no one is allowed to pick imperial commander as I have a soft spot for him as I said we have had some rain – but yesterday was dry (shower just missed the course I think as I live approx 3 miles west of the course) and today (thurs) was dry (both days sunnys and cold). It has been cold so dont know how much has dried out.
I would think its going to be on the soft side of good unless it warms up – with heavy rain now forcast for monday intead of sunday according to this http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/2174 its is very cold at the moment.
I can keep you updated if you like – just dont shoot the messenger thats all
I come in peace
