    Was impressive, most aggressive performance ive ever seen from a horse I think and he broke two horses who are obviously not top class on that evidence.

    ill be taking him on at Cheltenham though, dont worry about that.

    Lol Take him on all you want but you WILL lose!

    Not many will be going to the Arkle taking that on. JLT looks like there'll be a fair few showing up I expect <whistle>

    I can see UDS scaring most of them off in the Arkle after that - will likely be a very small field.

    If there is anything good enough to beat him they will be in the race, those scared off no point in showing because a lesser class horse isnt going to beat that thing, good chance they will get ruined like those two today.

    Hes a very, very good horse, high level, but he will lose when he comes up against a top class horse with a more even racing style. Whether there is a horse in the Arkle im not sure but ill be looking!

    Superior performance from a superior horse. probably get bigger than evens on the day and I'd be surprised if he loses. I took 8/11 today and would certainly take anything above that price in the Arkle. It's not a good race and he's setting a very high standard.

    No, STH, watching too, rest on my laurels. Found winners difficult to find this year!

    <cheers> Oddy, makes a change. Went a bit mad with the early pints today, brief nap did the trick...<laugh>

    Why hasn't Fiscal Focus been sold since the grade two win first time up?

    Massive step up in class today and it's a very unusual way to campaign a horse but will be fascinating to see how it gets on. Running The Fly and Jezki to within 10 lengths would be a monumental performance. Looking forward to this race.

    evens the Fly and 6/4 Jezki in effectively a match race offers a nice little opportunity to turn a profit of Jezki wins and break even if Fly prevails.

    Hoping Fly does it again but have slight doubt's. If Jezki downs him today then surely but surely he regains his rightful position as second favorite for the Champion? He'd have to, you'd say
