Last day The first race is wide open. Mullins purchases from France are all chucked in together here. I’ve backed Kargese but all these horses in the race are unexposed so anything could win this.
Ground is going back to heavy at Cheltenham. Bookies paying 4 places for the Gold Cup. Conditions are heading in Nassalam’s favour and he could place at a big price today.

And the 2nd one you sod! Kargese 11/2 Magical Zoe 11/1 Johnnywho 12/1 Nassalam 28/1 It’s on the line 5/4 Limerick Lane 9/4 What’s up darling 10/1
Nassalam still coming in. Betfair price down to 26 now and was in the 30s when I looked a couple of hours ago.
The ground has gone back from heavy to soft so the price could start drifting back out now. Needs a big down pour at some point and the price will crash. It’s a proper mud lark horse.
Money back on Kargese for finishing in the places. Not a bad start. That horse that won will be a novice chaser next season.
