    I really like the look of the Hobbs horse Giordano Bruno in the first at Taunton - ran a belter last timer after a long lay-off and if he doesn't "bounce" ha can go close here at a nice price

    Wouldn't want to call that one.

    Hopefully the fav has it - miles better horse but struggled with his hurdling.

    Promising effort from DEFINITE MEMORIES there over a trip that is certainly too short. One for the notebooks when tackling further and a lovely chasing prospect. Keep an eye on him!

    That formline was too good to ignore, shame it was a deadheat, couldnt believe he went off at 6/1, even money was always too short on the favourite and IFYOULETMETHINK was by far the better horse turning for home and with better hurdling would have won well, nearly unseated his rider 3 out

    Watch it again - the favourite lost around a length at every hurdle. Yes, the joint winner put in a bad one 3 out but apart from that was a much better jumper. That would have been a 5 length win for Urbain if he jumped as well as the others.

    EDIT: Ifyouletmefinish also jumped poorly at the 6th.

    Easy win for Railway Dillon....

    Just a question to the lads today... Whats going on at the Twisters yard...??? Havnt got the stats directly to hand but they dont seem to be hitting anything at the moment... Sherwani Wolf set off fav, was stone last from the off and stayed there...!!!

    Thats 2 yards struggling leading up to Cheltenahm...

    Twister 1 winner from 25 runners in the last 14 days .................... no 2nds and 2 3rds. Very poor, maybe they've also got a bit of something in the yard?

    About right, should be bloody 50/1 on that form, although it has been racing in decent company and LTO form has just been franked again with IFYOULETMETHINK
