Down Royal Friday

What ye think lads, is the 5 short fav Acca a good thing?
Who is most vulnerable?
Bookies taking no chances the bastards!

Queens Brook to get beat I feel

Coneygree

Don't think I've ever seen a novice chaser as short as Envoi is. 1/12 is mad. There's nothing there to beat him but still...

Interested to see how Farouk D'Alene fares over 2m6f.

That's the one I feel is most vulnerable too actually... But..... Still think it will win

I love Abacadabras and have it backed for CH but Aspire Tower is no mug and any mistake will be punished

It will be interesting to see how Queens Brook gets on. I think she could be very exciting but she didn't exactly justify her massive favouritism last time out. Maybe she'll come on for that run and back up against her own sex tomorrow, hopefully she'll have enough in the tank.

Think she's vulnerable over 2 miles if you ask me.

Rogers' wonderful Mammy aside, where will Queens Brook likely be aimed at Cheltenham?

Has GE said? I can see her in the AB as I think she's a stayer. Today might tell us.

Paddy had a Special up although I dont see it now

Farouk D'Alane
Queens Brook
Abacadabras
Envoi Allen

10/3

Thats a kiss of death.

Earendil

Jeez I think Bold Plan in the beginners chase at Uttoxeter looks huge at 9s

Will have a decent ew swing at that.

My mam died young but its OK, you weren't to know....
If she were alive today she would disown me, she hated gambling!!!

RivetingRoger

Anyone else more excited to see Abacadabras than the mighty Envoi today?
No? Just me so....

Slattsy

Get on the Abaca and Envoi Cheltenham double before today, thats if you fancy them both.

I do anyway.

Aba Shishkin double done for March a few weeks now

Slattsy

I've Shishkin in a treble with the above too.

I think the Envoi/Shishkin double is the extremely solid.

Farouk D'Alene is some boat. NH chase 2022

We could all get a desperate land if Envoi doesn't like a fence!

Coneygree

Surely Farouk will be aimed at the spuds race.

codd is some spoofer queens brook is so average its unreal

Gutted for Queens Brook there. There go the acca(s).

Ah well.

Slattsy

She wants a step up in trip.

rubbish excuse was not even staying on better then anything else

RivetingRoger

Jack got going too early. Davy would have won that. Silly jockey error

gazza1

Paddy Knew......how, id love to know

AnniePowwa

goshen must be a monster over hurdles and finds the flat too easy haha

Slattsy

That was disappointing.

RivetingRoger

That's a shocking result yo me. I was sure Abacadabras was gonna be too good for them.
Am I picking holes thinking Jack very weak in the finish?

Horse very weak at the finish rather than jockey. What in the name of Jesus are they doing with Goshen on the flat if the likes of Aspire are doing this?

Abacadabras didn't look too fit tbh, I'm willing to hold onto my bets for now. Hasn't drifted enough to top up though.

I cashed out 😢
Got my stake back
Very disappointed
Least if I regain my faith 9ver the winter it won't have shortened

A poor mans Harchibald is Abracadbras. Bridle horse

First time out I would say it is half fit.

AnniePowwa

race wasn't up to much but you would have to love how quick envoi allen is over a fence

Coneygree

Made for fences.

RivetingRoger

RSA Marsh, don't mind thar, Gold Cup!!

Slattsy

Good at most, but got in tight to a fair few, looked hesitant to me. Will only get better.

IAMAMORON

He looked a natural.

The biggest problem punters are going to have is getting a price about him. He will only be beaten by himself. Has he ever even had the whip yet?

Honeysuckle, shishkin Envoi

I wouldn't bother with doubles or trebles over fences. It would break your heart.

Just watch the horse, he will be a coinflip or worse for the rest of his career at this stage, unless he developed issues and then you shouldn't be backing him either. There will be better 4/7 chances to have your money on the flat.

gazza1

I have Envoi, Shishkin and Honeysuckle treble.
Thought Envoi was very slick over his jumps today and will only get better.

Plasandrunt

Abacadbras just blew up after his first spin in nearly 8 months, I certainly wouldn't be writing him off for the CH yet.
