    Agree. Interesting reading Pricewise backed Al Dancer but assumes he will be diverted so he doesn’t clash with Angels Breath.

    Waiting Patiently has to be a huge player if he ends up coming here which sounds likely now.

    I’d love the performance of Angels Breath, my main concern was that I didn’t think he looked that scopey. Obviously you can’t always tell much from appearance and he clearly has an engine. I do think he is worthy fav, but mainly because nothing else has looked like a star in the making yet – if that makes sense.

    Well it won’t be Rathhill winning will it!

    Right now I don’t mind that result. Well providing City win the league as I have them in a double with Angels Breath! I felt I’d missed the price on AB after Annamix got beat so I wanted to throw it in with something to boost the price. City to win the league were 15/8 prior to last night so I did them. Made sense to me! :wacko:

    I’ve taken a chance on Rathhill at 20s today as I expect him to win the Tolworth tomorrow and he’ll obviously shorten up if he does.

    Yeah with hindsight I agree. And I think he reverses the form next time.

    I’d expect Adjali to reverse the form with Quel Destin. Won’t be a straight duel in a Triumph and Adjali already has finished ahead of QD twice on the flat in France. It’s a shame Chaille-Chaille won’t entre Beaumec De Houelle for the race as he would be my pick.

    Do you think DDS stamina ran out or do you think he would have a chance of reversing the result if produced later? (This is by no means a dig a BG, just wondered if that’s how he needs to be ridden next time).

    I too am in the Ms Parfois camp. Trainer was expecting her to beat Black Corton last time. Will love the ground and Anthony has stated that 4 miles won’t be a problem for her. As Degaussed says, winner at Cheltenham before too. All bodes well for a big showing.

    I like Yanworth too. Thought he would have won it last year and I think he has to have a great chance in an average renewal. Running in the CH was one of the strangest decisions I can remember. JP fired 2 bullets at 2 races and lost them both when he would have been better off sending them both here.

    He may well do, but I don’t see what anyone has seen so far to suggest he might not make it up the hill? Am I missing something? He has finished all his races with his ears pricked going away.I’d have thought there is as much chance that his turn of foot will be even more effective on the hill with a quicker pace as there is him not getting home?

    Whilst I agree 5/1 to too short, he still appears better value than AS to me. That horse has been winning in very bad ground and there is also a lack of substance to the form. I have a few that the faster they go, the more it will suit Redicean. He won over an 1m 6f at Redcar with no signs of stamina issues and I can’t see where the angle comes from regarding him not getting up the hill? I totally understand that not all horses that run well on flat tracks also run well at Cheltenham, but winning flat form at 1m 6f would indicate to me that it won’t be stamina he lacks. The way he has finished off all his races suggests that he has plenty left in the tank and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if he came to the last travelling and won in the Triumph. Equally, I wouldn’t be surprised if something unexposed turned up and proved better.

    I’m on…. at 7/2…… :-( with Harry Kane for top scorer and Man City to win the league.

    Yeah it seemed to me that UKWIMH dictated where Yanworth went last season. Assume BG had an influence on that too.

    Is it King or JP?
