    The Andrews filly??? She’s ridden him already this term and gets plenty of rides for the barn.

    Almost certainly right Barney but there are so many better, stronger conditionals out there and if you want to win at the Festival you need the best on board. Noonan, Deutsch, Fox and the young Irish lad that keeps banging in the winners would all be better options in my opinion.

    You can say that again. You really are the bloody end, Sir Barney, even Dan Starkey has quit the race (I think), only me to try to keep you in order, and I've lost the battle, and how...............<laugh>

    That entry is a feather in L’ami Serge’s cap as Mr Henderson also ran Sprinter, as a novice, in the ‘Game Spirit’ and I think was set to do the same with Simonsig prior to injury ruling him out of the race.

    You could have looked wherever you liked Woolly and you wouldn't have found the answer. The decs for both races are not even out yet!

    Could have looked at past festival winners by races and whittle it down that way can't be many chase horses won beginning with the letter S! But anyway I was wrong and it was stupid guess but it wouldn't suprise me a Gary Moore plot like that

    In the hurdles slog at Sedgefield (15:25) will take a chance with old boy Urban Gale (9/1). Certainly bred for the job and looks to be fit enough.

    I just laugh at it now Swanny - though Barney is right about the Seven barrows yard being like the Arsenal. They'll be overjoyed with any 4th place finishes when they get to dear old Prestbury Park this season......

    Well, that was a horrible start, but still brought it home ...
    I was surprised, if I'm honest.

    Unlucky, he keeps finding one too good. I'd put him in a handicap.
