    Following on from a question on another thread I am wondering what is everybodies Bizmark of the festival and why?

    Mine is Racing Demon in the Arkle without a doubt, doesn't have the toughness or experience to win a championship race of this quality. He'll probably be more suited by soft ground over a longer distance.

    Kauto Star, I said back in December that it will be a great animal, but it needs another year. It's a false favourite IMHO. It's never been to Cheltenham yet it's a short priced favourite. I was going to have a punt on it if it was around 8/1, but it's price is crazy. I could be wrong and it could end up winning, but I think it needs another year for sure.

    Racing Demon, Accordion Etoile and Missed That could all be Bizmarks in the Arkle to be honest.

    I personally think that Missed That still hasn't got his jumping 100% and could be easily expolited here.

    Thats gas cause I would say hes my nap of the festival. Its a very poor Queen mother imho, but hes the only horse thats looked classy this year. Beating ashley brook comprehensively. As a matter of interest who dyou think will win it?

    My 3 Bizmarks are:

    1) Moscow Flyer
    2) Baracouda
    3) Beef Or Salmon


    I love laying on betfair. A revelution it is!!

    I think Sweet Wake is a very skinny price on what we've seen so far.
    He'd be my Bismark.

    Baracouda is my Bizmark as he is the most exposed of the 1st 6 in the betting for the world hurdle.....

    Beef Or Salmon
    Brave Inca

    I have a feeling this year may be a graveyard for some fancied runners. My own personal bizmarks would be Our Ben, Andreas and Mister Hight

    Baracouda definitely and spotthedifference.

    Sweet Wake-not shown enough to warrant such a short price
    Mighty Man-Same as above
    Beef or Salmon-imo,needs soft ground,will once again be found out by fast pace,and jumping wont hold up,pretty poor gold cup tbh,might reconsider Beef or Salmon if ground came up Soft
