DG, could you put up a link for that fella who compiles the stats/trends? I remember it from last year but forgot to keep the link.
It’s an impressive piece of work even if you don’t believe in such things!

I thought the novice chase entries for the fez would have been published by now? 23rd according to DG list.
Closed in Ireland Monday and with the BHA Tuesday. I'd have thought lunchtime Thursday would be release time.

You've got to love O'Leary, the cheeky rascal - in the RP headline article today where he's calling for a festival 2m4f championship hurdle:-
"I don't have any truck with this argument about the Ryanair Chase diluting the Gold Cup - it doesn't. Was Don Cossack's Gold Cup any the worse because Vautour wasn't there? I don't think it was."
Erm...
Alcohol, because no good story ever started with "I was eating this salad..."
Erm indeed, Lee.

Considering the ground and the fact the leader jumped brilliantly Sceau Royal has put up a top drawer performance
.
He has as much going for him as Footpad has the Arkle price difference looks crazy to me

Absolutely staggering what Tizzard has done to Finians Oscar.
I hate him. For now anyway, he needs rest if the season off.Originally Posted by Bonjers
I wonder if there is some sort of low level bug at the yard none of the horses are finishing their races - they are very out of form .
Very surprised Wholestone did not go by Agrapart there .
Doesn't have a clue what to do with the horse. Just read he makes noises whilst racing. So you stick him over 3 miles in heavy, appalling. Tizzard proving this year to be a very over rated trainer for me.
Finians Oscar looked a world beater last season, incredible how bad he can suddenly get.
Expect to see Finians Oscar aimed at the July Cup.
So much of this season's form is on soft or heavy. If it dries out for March there could be some value out there.
The older I get the better I was.
I expect to see a few forum members taking out trainers licences too, Seems to be plenty of armchair experts that know better than them anyway.
My thinking before the race was that Wholestone doesn’t quite get 3m and felt somewhat vindicated when he couldn’t go by the winner. Not that I backed Agrapart

It baffles me how Harry Fry and Tizzard have such talent in their stable and Nicholls basically has Politologue and handicappers.
Amen to that!
Man who catch fly with chopstick .... accomplish anything.
If I was ever in a fortunate position enough to own horses they'd be going to Hendo or Nicholls.
Probably due to his personality.
