    Ran like a drain Chan.

    Tizzards have a good one there though - what next for him?

    After Aintree big Col reckoned chasing next season would be his game. However he's only a 5 year old and the Champion Hurdle scene is not littered with talent. A rethink maybe?

    A non runner at 7 30pm at night? Nicholls is a prick, also what is it with the non runner farce still going on, thought these new rules would stop this stuff yet there's still loads and loads of non runners on the day of racing, it's pathetic

    Meant to add nothing against non runners in the morning fair enough as horses might not eat up or could be lame etc, but non runners after 12pm is what pisses me off there's still so many of them

    Well done FP. He was however lucky Optimised made that mistake at the fence coming down the hill otherwise it would have been 2/3 for the Shropshire P2P maestro.

    I've surprised myself by opting for Village Vic and the 'enthusiastic' Mr Maxwell in the lucky last.

    Was relieved he won as was going to back optimised but didn't chancing a big outsider instead which bombed out pretty quickly..seemed to have 3rd itus on all my other bets..

    I don't think I 've ever watched a race where it was so gloomy and dark as the last race at Cheltenham last night..shame about the weather but was a good evening with quite a few clearly there dressed to go in town afterwards..:emoticon-0100-smile. Best mate enclosure looked virtually empty when I looked across the track.

    I should get paid for this you know. Didn't quite get the 1/4 shot beaten (won by a nk), but got the 10/11 shot btn by 40l and my ew was pulled up.

    Alex Hammond makes a living out of doing the same Ron so it's not too unrealistic a suggestion!
