    Fwiw, jonbon went out to 30s in running, it was a **** race, IET just massively underperformed

    Great news regarding IET,

    But that should confirm that jonbon goes CC, not that he has any hope of winning it, but he absolutely will not get 2m5…

    And marine national isnt that good, record speaks for itself, best of a very, very poor bunch

    IET would beat him (if you put a line through today)

    “Skelton and mullins”

    Criminal putting those two in the same sentence

    Good price glad, may follow you in here on her, can’t see bambino running here, surely to good for this nonsense given how all her form is stacking up, if that happens id say PDLN will go off very short, they spoke fairly highly of her also

    Youll get better than 6/1 he wins the gc
    Next year after the festival surely win or lose?

    Thats a bad price 12/1

    Mike, any horse this far out is 2/1 to make the festival/ suspected targeted race, not just sir gino, if youd been around long enough, or had any semblance of punting, you’d know this. Hence why you dont understand why i said majborough at 110s or el fabiolo, or constitution hill are better punts at this stage, if any or all turned up, youd be in profit before they set foot on the track that day

    The fact that you like him so much is enough to make him 12/1 alone 😂. All joking aside, why would who thinks he can win remotely make any difference to my opinion?

    And theres a reason he left him in the champion chase decs today and its not because he thinks one will become easier. There both around equal in depth, the CH is arguably slightly easier currently.

    Its because he knows he’s better suited to it.

    “Leave the champion hurdle behind in january”

    Come on 😂😂 one run a season before cheltenham is dreadful, absolutely dreadful nothing to do with the prior infection either, he’d have done this regardless.

    The best part about it is, he wont be winning this, if your sitting on 10/1, youve done well, but hes 2/1 to make the race currently,

    Lossiemouth will plaster him at cheltenham, her worst track is leopardstown and BDA’s best is early season leaopardstown, the only worry is if she’ll actually run as shes prone to a bad one at the drf, theyll run el fab against her and there has to be a chance he can improve on today, theres worse 50s pokes about than him currently

    i despise the stable and i dont think he’s remotely good enough, the new lion at 5/1? Whos pricing this up…

    Im assuming now Nicky is just accepting Constitution hill is gone at the game? 20s on the machine now. Hes still a better AP punt than sir gino

    Need your heads checked betting him sub 3/1 currently

    Majborough 110s, has to be a chance he comes back over hurdles given his jumping is butchering any hope over a fence

    Sir gino absolutely will not win this 😂

    Sir gino wont be winning this anyway, hes a chaser now, hes lucky state man is in the same ownership/injured as he’d bury him

    Hes a cert in the CC though, be stunned if he doesnt go that route

    Who in there right mind is backing that at 5/1 comical stuff, even the campainging of him thus far is comical, its enough to ruin his chances,

    5/1 to even run at this point

    Howling,

    Not that Nico did anything wrong, he didn’t but they probably need to give bowen a spin and see if the horse reacts differently

    Im with Glad on this,

    The new lion is a horrendous price, has absolutely no chance in this, more likely to end up in the stayers than the champion hurdle,

    If CH can reproduce what he was about to behind lossiemouth at aintree then that will be enough to win this assuming anzadam isnt a freak whch his hurdling technique sais he probably isnt,

    Backed CH yesterday at 15/8, will save on anzadam

    Should be fairly straightforward

    Maybe im slightly biased as id love nothing more for the skeltons than TNL to be beaten out of sight, how hes still allowed to go on is beyond me

    My first bet of the jumps, jonbon 9/10 times would comfortably beat this lot at 11/10 is really fascinating imo, he’s way overpriced and i expect him to shorten a good bit, back closer to 4/6, 1/2 should be his price though, if it was any other track id be all over this

    However, ill be betting matata at anything from 12/1 up, no need for e/w, happy to skip the places on this, this is his best chance at this grade that he’ll get all season stables in great form and had a prep, id have brookie over LDS, LH would be my bet if he’d have had a prep, but the lack of and stable form is in the toilet currently, seems an obvious bet to me win or lose,

    Seeing as it looks like Whirl is done flr the season,

    This will likely be my last play for the season,

    5/1 Zavateri e/w for a fair old chunk, will finish the season nicely either way but why on earth isnt he the 2/1 fav win or lose, as someone mentioned above, if Zavateri was trained by obrien, who would soumi be on? It’d be Zavateri…. The difference in price is extremely strange, back on home soil, theres nothing not to like, trainer/jockey combo is dictating the price rather than the horse/form

    Really disappointed whirl didnt arrive given the ground would have been right in her favor, but she did run terribly the other week!

    That being said, the arc has a history of horses running well in it multiple times

    Aventures run last year would win this
    Sosies would get him placed
    Ive put myself off los angeles

    Ill add alohi alii in albeit hes been fairly well supporter so it may be a late play

    Aventure 6/1 e/w
    Sosie 12/1 e/w
    Alohi alii e/w (hoping for 14s)

    Think its a cracking race imo and a good betting heat, case could be made for most all the way tk hotazhell
