    After reading Hendersons blog post today I won't be backing Might Bite, sounds very concerned about the ground. As someone said in the other thread front runners aren't doing too well tho we did finally get a horse to make all and win in the last yesterday.

    He sounds most confident in Chef Des Obeaux in the Albert Bartlett. Annoyingly he has the top 2 in the market with him and Santini. I'll be skipping some of the other races tho so don't mind backing them both at around 5/1.

    Native River front runs but he is the one horse you know will love the ground and get the trip too. it's such an open race and I love Might Bite but just think it's gonna be Un De Sceaux all over again if he tries to make all.

    i know NR will give me a run for me money and with Definitely Red and Edwulf being proven on heavy they're definitely worth e/w bets at big prices. I don't fancy Our Duke at all, honestly just think he's popular bc Jessie won it last year and he won the Irish Grand National. he's priced shorter than he should be imo.

    Only had 1 bet this meeting due to work. €10 patent on Presenting Percy, Apples shekira and might bite. Didn't take prices and Apple is to 13/8 from 5/2 which will reduce the pot if it doesn't drift. Waiting to read all opinions on might bite as thinking of cashing out if Apple wins and the offer is fairly decent. Then again i have a feeling might bite may well drift due to the Irish factor and may get a good 5 or 6-1.

    Good luck with all your bets

    A wide open Gold Cup today where we might easily have another Lord Windermere type result. Native River looks like he’ll cope best with conditions of the favorites but is 0-4 at the course so I’m going for Definitely Red EW.

    Also throwing a few darts for small money at:

    13:30 Stormy Ireland
    14:10 Meri Devie
    14:50 Chris’s Dream
    16:10 Wonderful Charm
    16:50 Discorama
    17:30 Top Gamble

    Good luck to all

    I give Smaoineamh álainn a very good ew shout at 14/1 he's been backed in from at least 20s. For the gold Cup I'll have a small bet on Edwulf at 16/1,i think this will be an open race with the ground and trip suiting.

    I've bounced a load of doubles off variations of stormy Ireland, apples shakira clan and santini. I'm sweet on stormy and will back in singles. Think clan wins Albert, very sweet on him. I'll back in a single too. Good luck.

    Threw another few quid on Sadlier this morning. I really liked the debut run. It was against nothing of note but the French flat form plays in well.

    Deal D'estruval is another I backed this morning.

    Duca de Thiux, Foxrock, and defiantly red.

    Still have being backing Kiltuagh Vic every week since for the last 6 weeks or so for the gold cup. Getting worried slightly about him now

    was thinking of lumping on Apples Shakira/Santini Double @ 8/1,
    seeing a lot of support here for Stormy Ireland though today.
    Apples is dodgy?

    Waiting on the two in a treble and lucky 15 for big money but I have a bad feeling. The form of the 2 are excellent, especially Apples form at the ground but I know one will let me down

    It's rare Nicholls will come away from Cheltenham without a winner. Thinking Le Prezien might just about be one of his best shots.

    Apples Shakira looks far too short. Farclas has a similar profile to that of Tiger Roll when he won this race so he'd be my selection at 8s.
