    That’s the million dollar question. If someone held a gun to my head though I’d repond, ‘Yes, I bally well do. Or fairly close to it at any rate.’

    3 out of Riverside Theatre’s last 4 outings have been over 3 miles+ a distance that I don’t think is really for him as it stretches his stamina to the absolute hilt. I think they can largely be ignored. Around 20 furlongs though he’s a much different animal and was in no way disgraced on his sole start over this distance in 21 months – 4th in March’s Ryanair Chase, 12 lengths adrift of the Cue Card.

    First time up is very much when to catch the old boy as well as Riverside Theatre’s form on his return each autumn/winter each term, reads -111116.

    Disappointed to see that it hasn't quite worked out for the African Gold over the big 'uns but time is still on his side. Looks like a consolidation season over hurdles beckons before another go over fences in 12 months time.

    The AB was a bad race. Looked poor last year. Looks dreadful now. AFC didn't hold every chance when he blundered. He was never winning that race. AFC's form was talked up last year mainly because of The New One and the Neptune. The Neptune has worked out poorly with a Capital P. You said yourself earlier that you think Zarkandar will win this weekend. So I'll keep on chuckling until something stacks up.

    That Regal Encore is becoming expensive to follow. Wouldn't have touched him with a barge pole today at those odds mind. Anyone think JP could use some better talent scouts? This one and also the bumper winner he bought from Greatrex (Chalk It Down) have both seemingly failed to go on from their bumper form. Conversely, Andrea & Graham Wylie seem to have purchased a pot full of superstars.

    The drift was somewhat offputting and ultimately borne out. Have lost a few bob backing Pipe horses recently - very wary of doing so at present.
