Only 2 days to go now lads, what is your NAP, NB and the bigger priced IWAC bet for the festival? NAP - Taquin Du Seuil NB - Saphir Du Rheu IWAC - Golden Chieftan(Kim Muir)
Was just thinking about putting this thread up myself as i hadn't seen one yet this year! I'll add a lay of the festival selection in too NAP - Ptit Zig NB - Parlour Games IWAC - Jetson Lay - Nichols Canyon/Silviniaco Conti
NAP: Faugheen the Machine. People knocking him due to price would do well to remember this will most likely be the last time we see him odds against. There's nothing about to give him a race, he'll absolutely destroy them NB: UDS. He'll laugh at that lot. Loudly IWAC: Bellshill in the bumper?! Should like a test like this, not one of Willie's higher profile ones but know a few of us on at 40s, could sneak a place if he gets a nice trip round. LAY: Sprinter Sacre. Big Bucks all over again.
Nap-annie power Nb-roi de francs Iwac-gwencily berbas(fred winter)/arbre de vie (coral cup) Lay-the new one (do well to place)
NAP: Don Cossack (Ryanair) NB: Coneygree (RSA - With a run) or failing that Beltor (Triumph) IWAC: Little Jon (last race day 1 - consolation for Twister when Faugheen beats TNO by 10 lengths LAY: Peace and Co, The New One best of luck all.
Nap - VALSEUR LIDO, JLT NB - BLAKLION, Albert Bartlett IWAC - GOD'S OWN, Arkle Lay - DOUVAN, Supreme. UN DE SCEAUX, Arkle.
Erm - it's probably just me, but - IWAC? It Wants A Cloudburst? It Wins At Cheltenham? I Was A C**t? Or something else ..... NAP Much as I would love it to be L'Unique, Annie Power will not be beaten here NB Faugheen without a shadow of doubt. IWANC It seems that others are naming outsiders, so on that basis - Noble Endeavor in the Pipe race Lay The New Once
No idea either Reebs. NAP Salsify Foxhunters NB Champagne Fever Champion Chase IWANC2 Irish Cavalier Novice Handicap Chase LAY Douvan
Nap - Sprinter Sacre (would have been Faugheen but decided to mix it up) Also Willie to be Top trainer once again NB - Don Poli - RSA IWAC - Sam Winner- easier campaign this time.around slipped under the radar Lay- Silvinaco Conti not a true stature and will get found out once a again
Nap - Silvanco Conti, clear top-rated & having his best season ever NB - Ptit Zig (JLT), fall LTO aside has looked a top novice at this trip IWAC - Qwey (Supreme) good class flat horse e/w shout & Foxrock (Ryanair), possibly a Ted Walsh masterstroke to spoil the expected Gigginstown Party Lay - never do them
Nap - Many Clouds - won me lots of money already this season - will be hard to get passed if leading going up the hill! NB - Faugheen - Simply the beast IWAC - Stars Over The Sea Lay - Rita Ora & Jessie J double
