    I’d agree he has t got the quality but then he doesn’t have the owners bar and he odd hemmings horse , took a kick when the Rooney’s took there horses out , there’s something , Rooney’s went back on there decision not to run horses at Cheltenham …did they run any at the festival ….I wouldn’t shout any of them home …def not a fan of there’s

    I’ll be honest potato I always tended to steer clear of a Richard hills horse …never rated him but glad he did you a turn , I was defeated the day many clouds died , I’ll take a front running warrior over a bridle horse anyday of the week , I backed many clouds at Carlisle before his Hennessey win , had a good bet on him in the hennesy then for some reason I’ll never know deserted him in the national …didn’t stop me screaming him home though , if many clouds had been a person he,d have been the type of guy to get your back in a fight ..even if you both knew you were going to get a kicking ..rare trait in a horse or person now a days

    King tends to plot this race as he,s a Scot , I’ve fancied dingo dollar for this every since the hennesy , I’m hoping sandymount is at aintree and not here , had 2 great days with this race , grey abbey in the rain and 40-1 Al CO , shouting him home while the people around me stood in silence …. The one other thing I always remember over the 2 days is look for the Anderson green winner ….this is his Cheltenham ..love a winner at this meeting

    I’ll be honest I’m a big McCain fan , he,s had difficult times esp the recent flu outbreak yet he still gets plenty winners , I very nearly put king on my list , I don’t think he kicked on when he had that good spell in 2000,s , he seems to spend as much time on the all weather rather than jumps now yet I reckon he could go close in the Scottish national , Martin’s a good shout , bookies use to be terrified of him getting one in at the bottom of a handicap

    I can’t wait to see him step up in distance , personally I think Cheltenham doesn’t play to his strengths and it’s purely because he,s so superior to everything else he wins there , he,s going to get slower as he gets older too so if he does stay further it opens up other avenues …..king George , saying that I’d love to see him take on cyrname

    I reckon BDM is a difficult horse to get cherry pick right , it’s been often mentioned his love for haydock but I reckon we also need to remember twiston Davies always tends to hit the season/early winter running , taking advantage of some other trainers horses needing the run , I always tend to follow him sept to November ….never had a bean on BDM …I reckon that would leave me evens Stevens lol

    Yeah I’d say jonjo had a quiet season but he did say early in the season that he had a lot of younger horses to come on …my brother is currently following minella Rocco off a cliff :unsure:

    It,ll be interesting to see what price tiger roll will be on the day , I’d imagine alot if once a year backers and housewives will back him regardless of his price ….hopefully giving us so called experts a bit more value lol…I prefer rathvinden and I’ve been nibbling at sandymount duke too …. I was impressed with last hurdle run
