Did anyone know that NH wouldn't let Nico de Boinville ride in the week before the Festival because he didn't want him to lose his 5lb allowance for this race? Would probably have lost if just claiming the 3lb.
Afternoon everyone , happy with Ballyaltons 2nd , especially as had s\f fav to beat it , looking at Captain Conan next race .
I didn't and it made all the difference...perhaps AP could have taken it up earlier but hard to fault his ride since he hit the front on the run in. Unlucky Toppy and RV.
How unlucky is Get Me Out Of Here, 2nd at four Festivals! What chance of Kid Cassidy winning the Queen Mother for AP? Although he's 10lbs worse off for beating Sire De Grugy at Cheltenham last November, he was a decisive winner so can't rule out.
How unlucky is GMOOH, really unlucky lads. Robbed. Deserves a big win here. Champion Chase. How crap is this (apart from SDG whose a brilliant horse but won't like the grd or track IMO)
Hi Donegal thanks pal appreciate that I had very big bet very confident , might not always be a treble sometimes a double ,, cant as you know guarantee but percentages very good. Pal
I really fancy Hinterland to give Sire De Grugy a proper race, but then again my tipping has been awful for a while so what do I know??
Delighted for SDG Lovely ride. Track and ground no issue. Module places at 20/1!!! And I had the tricast.
