    I dont see the sense in Poquelin being shorter than Tranquil Sea for this, why should he be?? I think Tranquil Sea is my 3rd best bet at Cheltenham, after Dunguib and Denman. I think hes a cert.

    Couldnt agree more,Poqulin biggest lay of festival. Simply isnt good enuf to win this race.

    if murphys mare is right she wins,best mare in british isle.Shes still improving rapidly with every run.Id question whether she’l return from that injury as the same mare. I know Murphy has issued its not that serious but mares are very delicate and often dont come back the same with muscle problems like that.

    I know I have no right qustioning willie mullins but what the hell is this horse going for the shorter race for. Rite of passage or quel esprit for a 2m4f race on goddish ground, I know which one id be on!

    forget about hidden universe because come bumper day at cheltenham he will be in his box at rosewell and elegant concorde will be comming up the straight of the costwolds on his own.

    Buying ex flat horses for the national hunt game is extreamly risky business.At the end of the day,jumping is the name of the game. No matter how well they can gallop, if they dont enjoy what their doing your wasting your time with them.I know there is sum sucess stories but in general,the majority dislike the game.

    stay as far away from ex flat horses of Johnsons such as washington irvine, they will win their little races in places like Musselburgh but when push comes to shove they ‘puke’ in big festivals.

    Im not saying he’s a badhorse by any means but if soft doesnt appear in the goin description,he hasnt got a chance.Apart from cooldine last year,uk clearly are streets ahead in quailty in terms of chasers and more importantly cheltenham sucesses

    Punjabi again is left out of calculations.He clearly is a very stuffy horse thats needs time to get fit,look at his last run,as he travelled better than anything before blowing up rounding the bend.You can trust henderson will haver him A1 come march time.leave him out at your perril!

    Pandorama will need cheltenham to be soft or worse come March to have any chance as he just lacks that turn of foot that the likes of mikael dag and punchestowns posses

    Al Ferof race could not have worked out any worse so would not be touching him.Was at Taunton today and there was serious word for paul nicholls horse Ramses De Marcigny and he duly obliged. however english horses simply cannot win champion bumpers therfore my selection at this early stage is forty foot tom,who was reported to be only half fit the last day when wining in taking fashion at Navan.

    have to agree,captain cee bee is the one they all have to beat and should be clear favourite in my eyes.just a sneaky outsider at massive prices is muirhead,who is set to go chasing after a dissapointing run at leopardstown recently.
