    Tent, if UDS runs.
    SDG
    AFC - Think More of That will be chasing. If not he wins this.
    Djakadam
    All comers, all grounds, all beaten!

    This perfect mix of poetry and destruction.

    I nearly put up Djakadam too. A novicey mistake robbed us of finding out if he's the real deal.

    new one surely. Over MTOY who i wouldnt fancy to battle tno at all in this race

    sprinter if he ever gets back otherwise SDG will still dominate

    I would fancy cue card at the right price for sure. I dont believe at all its a given he wont stay and another year will help

    If he stays with the division then this years winner is surely hard to beat in the stayers

    The way he jumped in the Arkle? Not a chance.

    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done

    Ok. I had to watch the race again. I thought first time round that he jumped brilliantly. Not just average for an novice. Brilliantly, especially down the back. I cant believe this statement. Watch the race again and name the fence that he was poor. He may not be quick enough for a QM, but in his third chase, was notably good.

    also thought CF jumped fine.

    i like the horse but i'm still not sure what his trip is. could be an interesting one for the king george possibly.

    If they do it will be a Mullins benefit

    Supreme Novices - Shaneshill
    Arkle - Vautour
    CH - UDS
    Neptune - Black Hercules
    RSA - Ponte Alexandra
    QM - Annie Power (novice winner)
    JLT - Faugheen
    Ryanair - Champagne Fever
    WH - Briar Hill
    AB - Killultagh Vic
    GC - Djakadam

    These could obviously be mixed and matched but not a bad list to start with.

    As this year shows Cheltenham is not a benefit for anyone - look at all the Mullins favourites turned over.

    I would much prefer if we could put up the winners of the
    1) Supreme
    2) Neptune
    3) Albert Bartlett
    4) Bumper
    5) Triumph


    That would be interesting
    Do not mistake my silence for ignorance, my calmness for acceptance nor my kindness for weakness.
