    Good call, TopClass, well done. A very gutsy winner on a trip that was too short for him IMHO?

    Yeah I think even I have to say he looks like he wants 2 and a quarter to 2 and a half miles.

    Turning in at the Supreme I expected him to win the way he travelled but he lacks a proper turn of pace which has surprised me so yes a slight step up in trip would help. But quite often these Arkle winners are horses who can or would stay further so if he goes chasing I'd be excited by that.

    We'd probably be hoping for good to soft at Cheltenham with him and not the road that we got his year!

    Only adds to my confusion and angst over Barters Hill at Cheltenham (stuffed him twice)

    Had enough form on GtoS to think he wasn't that dependent but you might be right

    Had a little EW on HENRI PARRY MORGAN as the yard usually gets at least one in at the meeting!

    I think Dare to Endeavour is a bit of value in 4.05 at 30/1.C&D 2nd back in December and decent place claims

    Stick mate how do you rate Bolving's chances in the bumper? Lots of money for him throughout the day. I'd think Twister knows where he stands with him through Templeross, still think Ballyandy will take the beating.
