    Jumps: Best Mate

    Was only getting into racing them as im only 18 now and just to watch him do what he did, was incredible.

    R.I.P Matey

    Flat: Young Mick and Blue Bajan

    Followed them in low grade races and won me a few quid :)

    My Current Bet is:

    Arbor Supreme at 80/1 on betfair.

    Surely there is no value in Big Fella Thanks at 8/1? Had 39 other rivals to face, yes half of them are dogs, but surely 8/1 is way to short!

    An interesting entry is: Backstage

    The way he won at Ffos Las on their opening day, jumping like a stag, he was breathaking and won by 10l. G Elliot has won the GN before. With 11st on his back, i can see him running well at a nice 20/1

    We shall see closer the time anyway :)

    Raymo, I definatley agree with you, regarding the ‘comparing generations’.

    I backed Imperial Commander at the festival and also, my brother looked at the trends and no-horse in the last 10 years have won the Gold Cup at the age of 10 years or more. That meant Kauto and Denman were ruled out. If this is anything to go by next year, we should have another new winner on the scene then? I think not.

    Imperial Commander’s form around Cheltenham is tremendous and it will take a very good horse to take the crown from Nigel T-Davies.

    One that does catch my eye is Somersby. Im not the biggest fan of Henrietta Knight but she knows how to train a GC winner and the way Somersby jumps could well make the difference in 2011 GC.

    No Ante-post bets for Cheltenham, anything can happen!

    I wish you all look if you have and as i have not been on the forum for a while, im just wondering what you think about the 2011 GC :)

    Thanks All, Happy punting :)

    Although I backed Ouqba, i was nearly talked out of it. I can never get why papers such ast Racing Post say that the stable jockey always ops for the better horse. In the past it has put me off but im glad i stuck with my selection today. I must say, fairplay to the J Best horse Deposer, he will be winning soon

    Yes, he did Colin. I wasn’t quite sure that the name of it was, so i didnt want to just say T Deans ride at Kempton. They think that has a cracking chance anyway. LADY LION – TOLLEY’S MOUNT AND CAN IT BE MAGIC – JACK’S MOUNT. So, if i here anything elese i will let you know. Fingers crossed anyway :)

    Why does it need a low draw? Draw bias as such hardly exists at Doncaster these days, and if you’ve identified a pace bias already in that race, you are a better form student than me. Didn’t Sallys Dilemma race up the stand side anyway last year?

    Sorry about that DJ. I was told that to start off with, but my friend spoke to Tolley Dean and CAN IT BE MAGIC has a cracking draw. I f Pat Edderry’s horse were to have a good draw then they thought that would win but Bill Turners horse us fancied very much to repeat the trainers success from last year

    It is quite hard to say tbh, imo i think that Sky Bet or William Hill are ok. Ladbrokes are very helpful but the layout is a bit dodgy. Im not a big fan of BF, but if i were you i would probabley go for Sky Bet

    Hi All

    Last years Brochelsby winner was SALLYS DILEMA. It was ridden by Tolley Dean and i am mates with his brother. This year, Jack Dean, Tolleys brother will be riding COULD IT BE MAGIC for Bill Turner and Bill said it is better than last years winner at this stage. The only thing is it needs a low draw!

    Not really a betfair forum comparison. Me and Yorkie Pud just think Barry may could have tried a little bit more that’s all. Everyone is entitled to there opinion. I had Optimus Maximus in a 50p patent with 2 winners, so im not getting in a paddy :)
