interesting to see how Captain Guinness gets on today after his problem.

All comers, all grounds, all beaten!
This perfect mix of poetry and destruction.
All well with Klassical dream and they do seem to love the monk

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

Agreed and now re-scheduled for tomorrow. Did any news come out on what the problem was?Originally Posted by Frankel
A fibrillating heart I believe.

You'd be slow to risk anything on him now in any race.

Quite an eye catching run from The Mighty Don there.
He's a horse who's taken in the last three festivals, including an honourable 8th in a stayers hurdle and has been sent to the track numerous time, winning a Pertemps qualifier on the old course a couple of years back.
The combination of spring ground, even with the inevitable soft somewhere in the description and a trip now just shy of 4 miles in the NH chase could be right up his street and there are much worse 40/1 pokes out there.
Edit : Hills are boosting to 75.53/1 so I've had a sneaky tenner e/w at that price

Alcohol, because no good story ever started with "I was eating this salad..."
Nice return from the Captain.

Yes, jumped really well. There's a big race in him somewhere down the line.
Good to see Fusil Raffles back in the winner’s enclosure. He just doesn’t seem to jump well out of soft ground as it wa a bit sticky again today at some and I thought it was the end of him with a bad blunder 4 or 5 out

I just did my first anti post bet for the festival on Shan Blue in the RSA, as I've had a good day overall. I managed to get 60 quid each way on with bet 365 at 25's each way, albeit after being referred to a trader. Fingers crossed now.

How you’ve had a good day in this bloodbath I don’t know. Every credit
I had a good each way single on Chatham Street Lad mate. I feel for you though. I nearly selected Rockys Treasure as I had him down as a good horse about two seasons ago. Anyways. Good luck in the future pal.

Well done. I live a few miles away from where he trains. What a master man he is. Just superb.

Elixir de Nutz and Ofalltheginjoints not helping dispel the notion that there is a bug or something in Tizzard's today.
stems pre-Cheltenham too!
There is, and he's the licence holder!
Well good to see the Skelton stable is in form.
We'll see if Shan Blue runs next week.

I wonder if Shan Blue gets entered today for the Boxing Day race......
9 left in the race including Shan Blue.

Cheers.
Monkfish could be a good thing in the rsa but when I thought about it i remember that saying' never been afraid of one horse'.
More often than not this holds true.
I just hope Shan Blue impresses this Saturday and puts himself in the RSA frame.
It's the best I can hope for.
Anti-post fancies for Cheltenham Festival aren't exactly jumping out at me at present, although this festival i am going to analyse the handicaps later than the past few seasons.
I've been looking too early weeks in advance and ending up on donkeys.
I'll be doing it the old fashioned way this season. Buy a Racing Post the morning of each day and study hard on the day.
