    Stamina is my main concern, he loves Cheltenham and should be ok with the fences but he will go well for a long way but could fizzle out near the end

    They only hack around for the most part, might be interesting today to see if that changes. I really don't know what to think about the race today.

    last Saturdays forum winner Litigant has resulted in a free 365 bet in the first at Cheltenham. I think my fiver e/w will be on The Clock Leary anyone got a view on this race?

    He is a front runner who can set the pace, is a good jumper and his stable mate always runs wel round here. Maybe the trainer fancies him. I'm not worried about the weight,we are seeing better horses in these races now because there is good prize money.

    My only bet at Cheltenham is Josie's Order in the cross country for Enda 'King of the Banks' Bolger.Nina has a good record linking with Bolger and this 7 yrd old will hopefully pick off the older brigade and take this jumping the last.Win bet 11/2

    Niks, im on the same bet - Litigant with a free bet on Clock Leary today.
    I really fancy Ballyalton today, he was running a nice race after his long layoff on his chase debut before unseating over 2 miles - he jumped perfectly up until then. Back up in trip today will be ideal and i think the winner of this race today will go to the front of the Jewson market for March.

    IMO This race is about prove horses In this type of race - stick with one of them and you will get at least a run for your money- my money is DOGORA jumped well round these the last twice including I think 4th in the festival, the experience of last season will see him open to improvement an he's only 6 so should do

    Just so you know, Woolley .. I'm with him too.

    You might not get much solace from that :)

    "Champers On Ice, a £205,000 purchase at Brightwells in March, is a fascinating contender for David Pipe. He receives weight all round on his first start over hurdles following a game Punchestown bumper success in April.

    Pipe said: “It’s a small but select field. He’s one we like a lot, and he’ll be a lovely horse in time. The trip should be ideal as he’s an out-and-out galloper."

    Hmmm. £205k is a lot to pay for a hurdler. Must be expecting something big

    Yes Ballyalton for me in the next, if he can recreate the form that saw him finish second to Faugheen he's certainly in with a shout. Maybe a big if though
