    i must admit i was impressed with thistlecrack but wouldn’t be rushing to lump on for the gold cup. at least not yet lol. got to remember that coneygree was a novice when winning the gold cup. we need some new talent as the field at the moment remind me of a 5 fur h.cap. get diff result if they met every week.

    i do wish him well though

    does anybody know anything about the supreme fav SENEWALK of mullins. ive seen lots of better flat ex horses of mullins that should be fav. so this horse must be flying at home. also shortening all the time
    so must have taken really well to hurdles

    i see a lot of these horses come from PTP field. but how do you know what kind of field they was up against. do you go by the meeting like ascot or cheltenham. is that the same as PTP.S.

    I DO LIKE JUDGEMENT DAY. as 2 horses that didnt finish. have also been sold for fortunes as well as JUDGEMENT DAY. so obviously the form stands up for that one.MORGAN WAS P UP. AND GETABIRD RO. they both sold for fortunes. also JUDGEMENT DAY was well fancied compared to those 2. so if you go by that then only 1 horse stands out

    NATIVE RIVER done me a few favours last year. so at 33/1 and the way he improved all of last year i hope he can carry on improving this year.
    i ust hope his umping has improved over the summer. then i think he can be a serious gold cup horse. as for staying the trip not a problem. does seem to have a flat spot in his races but will be staying on when others have cried enough

    i did say in an earlier post that landofhopeandglory was 1 of my bets for the triumph. but also have had a bet on DINO VELVET AT 50/1 as well. he was bought by the mcneils who love buying 1 for the triumph. he had 3 races in france before a break. then he was bought by the mcneils. had a pipe opener at chester which he fin 4th.

    i believe he having a run on the flat soon before hurdling. and did say aiming at the triumph

    that was a great peice titus. i have to agree with it all. its going to be the temperament that will let most of them down. which is a great shame. hopefully they will settle down. would like to know which frankel colt or filly that has impressed you the most

    for me i liked yesterdays winner MIRAGE DANCER. and ATTY PERSSE that godolphin have now aquired shortly after his win and now hopefully train on for next year. i had a few quid on FAIR EVA after she won at haydock for the guiness. but they now in the bin. especially after charlton said she spot on last twice. cant understand why ran so badly

    then pat smullen has said she to weak at present so who do you beleive

    i have 2 dogs running at crayford tommorow night. KELVA KENTON RUNS IN THE 8-02 having his 1st race at the track after trainer jim daly changed tracks from yarmouth. he must have a great chance if he pop out like he did ins his trial. my other dog BAREFOOT BEAUTY also running in the 9-06 AND IF SHE CAN AVOID THE INSIDE RUNNERS AT THE 1ST BEND SHE HAS GREAT BACK STRAIGHT PACE. SHE WAS UNLUCKY NOT TO WIN ON WED SO LETS HOPE AH GUYS

    well i listened to joseph obien triptych. and he said he was schooling well and all going well is being aimed the triumph hurdle. such a highly rated horse but didnt live up to expectations on the flat. rated over 100 so if he does take to hurdles could be the making of him
