They can go and win it next year. If Douvan is better than him then god only knows what he'll do to the QMCC field next year.
I really want Thistlecrack to win today but i have a few worries. Ground. Not been off the bridle for over a year. Championship pace. I really hope he wins though.
No better than it was Archers imho. We already knew it was the cream.
Only did 10p ew lucky 63 on the above but i must have Paddy Power nervous, they'r eoffering me £258 cashout already!
I have to say i am tempted. Even if Thistlecrack wins and the last two only place it won't return as much as they're offering now!
Wait until Thistlecrack wins then it should be double then cash out, Fingal Bay + Cause of Causes could easily both win though. fingal bay the tricky one
Thistlecrack next and I have rarely fallen for a horse as much as I have fallen for this guy. I was lucky to see his hurdles debut at Wincanton in January last year where he won an average race on the bit. He was then turned out really quickly at Cheltenham and disappointed, can't really say why to this day - possibly too soon? Then came the race where I really thought this guy is special - a novices hurdle at Ascot where Ruby Walsh rode him. He looked absolutely cooked 4 out, Ruby in last pushing him along, but he started to stay on and absolutely flew up the straight to win going away. He then went for the Imperial Cup, where he ran OK but I already thought he needed further. He skipped Cheltenham and went for the Sefton over 3 miles and I had a good bet on him that day at 25/1. The rest is history. He got mugged in Ireland and then has gone from strength to strength this season.
My lasting memory is after the Cleeve hurdle, when they interviewed Colin Tizzard. Now Colin has been around the block and knows his horses, including Cue Card, but after the Cleeve he was literally speechless. Couldn't describe what he had just seen.
I've already won plenty on this lad and have my 20/1 ante post ticket for today, but I really just hope he comes out and demolishes his field and shows what an awesome horse he is. I just want to see Colin Tizzard speechless again.
