Cheers mate, looking forward to cashing in on 1 or 2 more of your tips this year too.

I hope I am too!!



Only had two bets on the racing so far and one hasn't been entered (though I've known he wouldn't run for 6 weeks).

just wondering whether to go down to cheltenham or not for 3 days



only a few antepost bets so far

kauto star 12/1 e/w
midnight chase 12/1 e/w
peddlers cross 6/1


world hurdle looks like it could be a cracker

and always look forward to the champion hurdle and gold cup

Think I'll be there the Tuesday or Wednesday if anyone's about - not sure which day yet mind as have to work the other three days.

Topped on Hurricane Fly @ 11/2 NRNB

Champion Court had a racecourse gallop over the weekend at Newbury and came out with some good reviews by all accounts. Expect it to hit single figures in the next few days.

You got an in with the Keighley camp Roonaldo6?

Really gutted Riverside Theatre is out this season, went in twice at 10/1 before his last run and had big hopes for him this year.

Paul Nicholls horses still not firing, 4 winners from 38 runners in past fortnight, no winners since Celestial Halo last Sunday.

Yes.

Matt Dawson left a bad curse during his Morning Line visit !

I'm taking your advice then, I'm on at 10/1. Wouldn't mind seeing the odds tumble.

All I can say is that the piece of work it did this morning was well noted, it may get a mention in the RP tomorrow, although not positive on that. 3 miles at Cheltenham will suit it to the ground and it has been flying at home previous to the racecourse gallop. Just hope it gets there safe and sound and ready to run a big race (having said Keighley is only a few miles away from the course anyway).

I was keen on following the horse of Hendersons that beat Champion Court in its bumper early this season (they both ran on clear of the rest and won by half a length). It came out and won its next race, but thought it may go to the Champion Bumper, but cant see it entered up anywhere.

Is the Champion Hurdle as unsolvable as it looks?!

I don't fancy Binocular but I have no rhyme or reason for saying that, I've backed Menorah and Hurricane Fly in their most recent runs and won a fair bit on both. I'm hearing great things on Peddlers Cross and cannot decide between the three. I'm defo having a bet and I think I'm going to have to do some real digging to get to the bottom of it. If the race was in 5 minutes I'd be on Hurricane Fly.

Thoughts?

Get on the Fly at 5/1 NRNB

Its last race was all set out to test it again at speed in a sub 4min race (3m 52.10s on soft) I got told by someone with good links in Mullins yard it was never off the bridle, as soon as NRNB came in for the Champion Hurdle I was on it like a rash as had heard too many horror stories of £200 going down the pan at ante post in the past few years, Mullins mob are really confident on it.

Very true

He gets a decent shout in the Cheltenham Weekender too, Peter Naughton throws in some quotes from Keighley. Benbane Head rated as his best chance, he wanted to get him in the Pertemps (not sure if he has) but he seems to really rate him.

Solwhit is the latest withdrawal

Hes always rated him, its no secret he is the apple of the trainers eye. He thought he would give Big Bucks a race in the World Hurdle before the season started, the only issue been Benbane Head has run three times this year and done nothing to set the pulse racing (including Saturday).

Kalahari King was cut by a number of bookmakers yesterday for the Ryanair Chase. Stan James who were biggest at 9/1 now go only 11/2.

Hills just credited me with a tenner free bet. Champion Court cut from 10's to 8's with Corals so it would be rude not to top it up again with my free bet at 11/1. Think Ive got enough on for now, will have to look at other races soon !

Just seen Binocular is 4/5 to be fav for the Champion Hurdle, given in the last few days 7/2 has all gone it looks like printing money.

I reckon if there is strong support for Menorah, HF or Peddlers on the day then his favouritism will be well challenged.

Can anyone tell me why Big Buck's is now out to 11/8, I reckon he should be 4/6!

i think binocular will go off fave too..

big bucks has strong challenges from grands crus and the irish challenger mourad ... 3 months ago big bucks was the festival banker but not anymore

The only thing that is deterring me from making Big Buck's my banker is the form of the Nicholls yard.
