going seems to be very testing...

Puntal has a great chance, i also think L'ami will be there or there abouts, ive backed Juventus E/W as it ran in the par du biche (spelling). Could be the interesting horse in the race.

corban

torn between leos lucky star and over sixty...king is in great form...any thoughts?

ROCKMAN

What do people think of the whip exchange in the 1.15 :eek:

Will they throw out the winner ?

I have money on the runner up, so my pocket is saying yes , but my irish heart is saying fairplay , good thinking , did your job i.e what best for connections

gone for over sixty, ground is a worry for leo, good chance ruby will ride the winner but i just have a feeling kings horse might beat him...

corban

Same as that Rockman. He would not have won without the whip. He came from miles back. Still if you backed the winner you'd buy him a pint or two.

one of those days.

Garde beaten by Dix Villez after he takes shortcut that obviously other jockeys didn't know about. yet again clever riding costing me money .

mike65

My selection is the places which is fine for my bet, I saw a horse go inside but didn't spot who it was - thats cheating!

Mike

corban

it was clever riding and davy obviously walked the course beforehand....saw a gap and asked the stewards..
i wonderr how many of the other jocks walked the entire course beforehand?

Exactly, hats off to him.

at least Andytown did the business.

corban

what an eventful day at cheltenham, whip swapping, shortcuts taken and ruby running off at the last fence..?

i think walsh was beaten at the time, but its not very often u see a horse get the better of ruby....shining gale looked very good though...

:mad::mad: Had the second @33s anyone see the race was he unlucky or just beat by the better horse??

mike65

Soz for aftertiming but I was on the winner Shining Gale (I heard literaly seconds before the off that he had had a breathing operation and connections were very confident)

Second was 66/1 :eek:
