    Have to applaud McCoy there, great ride to produce Twirling Magnet over the last. Really thought Savant Bleu was going to win that. Eway double still riding with Roll The Dice at 435 :)

    I've never seen a horse jump so well on debut and jump so poorly on 2nd start. Won't give up on Countess Comet just yet in a much easier race than this.

    Civil Unrest down 5lbs since putting in a decent shift at Muss in a strong race. Ignore lto, didn't make the trip. Could go close here by my reckoning.

    Regarding the Cheltenham Gold Cup I see old Long Run schooled well this morning in cheekpieces and is likely to have them on for the big one. Probably a plus point for those who fancy him and may well improve his chances, not that I fancy him myself though.

    Top info heis cheers, did the bet pretty shortly after ya put it up and got 9/2 then checked results later and saw it won at 9's so all the greater. Good stuff as my selection Civil Unrest ran terribly, clouted every fence almost.

    A big thank you to our Brendan for the BPG info today. God was I worried but then grateful for the drift. You are a star mate and I owe you a very large cool beer.
    A little aftertime here too as I had a tasty bet off my own back on BACARDY BOY too. Maybe just maybe my luck is turning!

    Cheers again Brendan

    NH Racing is garbage, everything is a prep for Cheltenham, none of the good horses are ever fit until then, staying hurdles and chases at the gaffs are the most boring events in the known universe. The form is completely worthless 80% of the time, even the top trainers are crooks, chemical nicky and wheres willie, countless terrible jockeys, the festival looks good beforehand but usually a letdown, bankers turned over most years.

    If I wasnt a degenerate gambler who is addicted to racing I would shun it <ok>
