    Only saw from the last fence "streaming" my balls. Fav looked to be having a spin.

    What did I miss.

    The winner, as the rp commentary put it, hampered basically the entire field with his erratic last few jumps. Took out the favourite first, then your horse.

    The New One impressed in the end. That was tough conditions to recover from.

    The Best One in last furlong though. I thought that was good considering the ground and fact he was so many lengths behind.

    Impressed! Terrible jumping when under pressure. Faugheen would have slaughtered them today, very unimpressive imo

    Wont win in March jumping like that. Non TNO backers will be liking that, and a tough hard race for him. Will probably recover ok for March, but not sure connections wanted him to be grinded that hard in his last prep run

    In the end he was under severe pressure to beat a horse who is well below championship level, obviously today is not the day but even so to struggle to win today was a very poor performance irrespective of the win but moreso the poor jumps he produced when he came under the pump. The only good thing for TNO backers is he might push out a couple of points in the betting after it

    Taking a chance on him too. Think going right handed will suit him.

    He was hardly driven to the line there though? Had Dodging Bullets off the bridle a good way out. Think they'd be happy with that.

    Bit harsh. I thought he ran a blinding race. Wasn't once smacked by Geraghty.

    Looked ominous for a while for SS to blitz them but was ordinary in the end. As I said earlier though it's a run he got through unscathed, maybe that's all Henderson wanted.

    Travelled the best he just got tired which being off for so long he's entitled to do.

    3.10 Lingfield. Clockmaker can go close here. Down the weights and down in class. Draw a small concern as normally makes it however has run well from wide draws previously. Draw has held me back a bit but I still think the 20s with corals is good value. 1 pt win

    A never closer 4th. Max bet next time. Put this in your trackers. Better draw 7 or 8f and lump on

    Bullets isn't stylish but he's a game horse, was looking rough for him at one stage but he loves a fight. That's simply his style and wouldn't downplay it.

    Said it in the NRNB last week that I thought his form was awful this year and doesn't have the tactical speed and his hurdling when it gets to racing is poor. His form last year was far stronger, this time last year he had a scrap with MTOY and now he is struggling to get by a 149 horse getting 8lbs.

    He got past a horse that had nothing left in the last furlong, hardly outgunned him the manner of a World Hurdler never mind a Champion Hurdler.

    He is a lovely jumper, he took off at one and I thought he was going to land on it and he landed running.

    5/2 NRNB Sprinter is like stealing money isn't it?

    Smashing run, looked a bit cold out the back but when Barry let him forward the sparkle was definitely there, he just wasn't fit as you would expect.

    I was glad to see him do it, they must be confident his heart is fine.

    5/2 NRNB is stealing money.
