@8Palfrey8 Agree on last two, already said regents runs hasnt he

@adotdack I'm happy with 5s. He has a decision over Regent's who is shorter and I dont think this is the right track for Wendigo or Salver.

Miami Magic 5/1 for the Mildmay surely best price of the week. Horrible set of market leaders.

@brodders_be Well done

The Glen Rovers looks overpriced @ 33/1 in the 4.10 Newcastle. Could easily have been laid out for this after winning the trial and only 3lbs higher than that now

@HonestFrank KSI

Ooh any guesses who the JJ might be? 😬

Soooooo … about to embark on the return leg from London He couldn’t could he?

@RichyShea @helynsar The results made the racing seem competitive but it was more random and unsatisfactory than anything for me .. the ground, the sharp corners.. wasnt a premier meeting setup unfortunately.

Ruby & @helynsar mentioned this on their review pod as well. That’s a scandalously bad track setup

@Evertongezza @RichyShea @helynsar Is that the reason?

@RichyShea @helynsar To avoid the drain.🤣

@RichyShea Elliot said after Browns, imagine he ran again too quickly and doubt we would see him again this season.. but could of been him throwing toys after being forced to run at fez. He also lined up jacobs here for a while too.

Did Romeo Coolio get hurt at Cheltenham 16/1 for Fairyhouse seems insane (for all that he needs to bounce back quickly from a poor effort) Wouldn’t like to lay 10 Koktail D or 7 Final Demand if either turned up Kappa Jy is nothing special. Doubt Sixmile is either. Weird market

@tayz2017 What was his injury again?

Speculative play on Idaho Sun Champion Hurdle 50/1

No wonder the bend before 2 out on the Chase course was riding tight, virtually a 90 degree turn. Surely the rails should cut the corner more to allow a much smoother turn?

@alanjohnsy Looked awful all week, someone has seriously fcked up there

Excellent blog from Gearoid... open.substack.com/pub/icyestretr…

@brodders_be Shameful isnt it.. will we ever see the ticket

But not including Be Aware or Kateira. Of course you did, Pinocchio

@RacingPost Not a chance he left out some of the other fancied hcp runners but had these all in.

"I've had an each-way accumulator on a number of mine, it's going pretty well" 👀 Dan Skelton has had it right off twice at this Cheltenham Festival - and now he's waiting on a whopping each-way accumulator 😮 Read more with RacingPost+ 👇

@theclaimer1984 @Unshookone Im sure you dont care but different race!

@Unshookone So we’re onto race 6 and my best pal is Reminiscing about backing a 50/1 shot trained by Venetia called carrickboy in this very race. 10+ years ago. We look at card and she’s got one in race at 150 on machine. Rest is history

Had an unreal day today anyone who likes run good stories can ring me up and hear about it. But it was insane

@freddy6T6 She looked awkward when she was made to go fwd in the morgiana, dont like cheekpieces for her tbh

Why are they putting cheek pieces on Lossie in the champion hurdle?

@RacingJim92 @Thelastgoodbet @istabraq_king

@Thelastgoodbet What about 3 figures? 🎣🎣🎣🎣 😂😂😂

If you are backing Mighty Park at these prices you’re simply chasing. Unless you’ve double figure prices I’d be leaving him. You can’t possibily fancy him on any known form lines, it’s all reputation. Hype won’t make him run any faster. He could be a freak but 11/4🤮

@RichyShea @freddy6T6 Why did they change it? Makes a huge difference

@freddy6T6 True. Haven’t seen many say it, some have, the race is half a furlong and one fence longer this year. Same start as Ultima. That matters imo and strengthens the appeal of the mare & Oscars for me.

First proper spin into the Brown Adv last night. HdB only 1 winning horse in the last 6/7 weeks and long odds on to have no winner on the Tuesday. What price will The Big Westerner go off? (RTF looks grand and I’ll still very likely back her on the day)

@MichaelTK1973 Does this transfer across the other hcp chases?

Another thing I noticed about the last 8 winners of the Plate is that their best Chase RPR in the last 365 days was at least 5lbs higher than their OR on the day of race (7/8 were a 6lbs+ difference ). Jagwar 145/139 Shakem Up’arry 149/143 Seddon 150/143 Coole Cody 151/145 The Shunter 145/140 Simply The Betts 160/149 Siruh Du Lac 149/141 The Storyteller 153/147 8 of the last 9 winners also had a weight adjusted RPR of 163+ on the day.

@MichaelTK1973 Yep especially with how the ground was.. willie was setting everything up for the galopin treble though. Cant blame him but this is why its detrimental to the sport having big owners so concentrated with one trainer.

@adotdack Destined never to run at the Festival. Easy to say now but he might have done some damage in last year’s Gold Cup.

Does Grangeclare West deserve a shot at the Gold Cup? I imagine it’s all about April and too soon after Fairyhouse but if you looked at his comparative form with Haiti Couleurs through Resplendent Grey he has the beating of the Curtis horse. Gave Murphy’s horse 26lbs at Sandown having come straight from the National and was still running on at the end.
