Been hearing some whispers about this Jeriko Du Rheponet who could be an absolute weapon. Was given a RPR of 95 for his P2P win, which makes you sit up. Only William Hill have him in their betting for the Supreme and 20/1 doesn’t seem generous for what is essentially hype. Could be interesting though. Mirazur West is another I’m looking forward to seeing. An RPR 122 for his one and only bumper win is again quite eyecatching. JP won’t want everything going for the Supreme. He could be a weapon. |

The horse I have shares in Apple Away ran brilliantly again in winning at Leicester on Wednesday and she is now being targeted at “a race” at the Cheltenham festival, sorry I do not know which race but she will I have no doubt go very close, she was a brilliant novice hurdler last season finishing the season spectacularly in winning at the aintree festival. This season she has successfully moved into novice chasing when coming 3rd on her debut over fences over a a trip of 2m4f which is totally inadequate distance for her. On her 2nd chase she romped home by an incredible 31 lengths over 2m6f. She is even better at 3m + distances, so I ask for opinions which race at Cheltenham you think lucinda and scu will aim her at?
yes a few races spring to mind but given the following
1.she is obviously a mare
2. A novice first season chaser
3. Ideally she wants 3m+ but they may consider races further than 2m6

I’d be sending Stay Away Fay to the NH Chase having watched that!!! Not a snowflakes of beating either of the front two there.

And handle the course. The second looked held against Stay Away Fay to me last season and still doesn't look like a natural yet over the larger obstacles. So all to play for. |

Hello team! nice picks.
Historically its my best ground! but I've not had time to really play, just here to watch! and support some real favs today. Looking forward to Il Etait Temps and Mr Vango who'd be an emotional win maybe the most.
So much of interest in the Ultima esp in this ground! Old Chambard a big decent price for a likely place. Eyes will be on Meetingofthewaters but really need 6pairs just for the national interests 😂
Best of luck today!
