The Jewson will obviously be the easier target and afte that obviously stamina is no doubt if was Nichols I would go for exactly that
Oh didn't that go well! Urban Hymn couldn't jump out of his own way and Ptit Zig definitely stays. Happy fooking new year. Well done zig backers.
Barry Geraghty down at 10-06 for Ericht in the next at Cheltenham, which is pretty light for him. I'm taking the hint and am on e/w at 9/1. Hawk High to get back to winning ways thereafter at Musselburgh
After Mullins, Ricci and Gigginstown, there isnt many races left for anyone else to have a chance surely.
They are very dominant Boris but do you think their money is improving the standard of the sport? Seems almost impossible these days that a Norton's Coin could win a Gold Cup ....................... mind you, seems almost impossible for any team outside the top 4 to win the premier league. I guess money talks after all.
Something very wrong with the Henderson stable. I wouldn't touch one of theirs with stolen money. Ptit Zig runs in the JLT and i'd say he would have a very fair shout based on his current mark and ability to relish Cheltenham. It's shaping up to be the novice race of the Festival.
The New One could be doing with Vaniteux winning well today but Cole Harden looks a fair price at 7/1
As Henderson says there is 4 days in the season that matters and he will have his stable ready by then!!
I'd rather back Rock on Ruby at 3/1 than Vaniteaux at 7/4 even giving lumps away. He loves Cheltenham and is the only horse running at his best trip today. Vaniteaux has it all to prove. You know what you'll get from RoR.
Agreed fully Bob, he ran TNO to a head at the trip at Aintree and won nicely last time out over the C&D.
