  • What do people think of Holly Bush Henry in the 1.30? I know nothing on horses and a mate tipped me but at 66/1 I assume it doesn't stand a chance.
  • No Lily Waugh backers yet?! Was with the owners and trainer today and its certainly not without a decent chance

    As if that wasn't bad enough Pricewise in the Racing Post has gone for Supasundae and The Young Master too. The last time Tom Segal had a winner at Cheltenham the King was doing the presentations!
  • Suprised Kruzhlinin hasn't been mentioned in the 2.50. Looked good in its last run out at Kempton. I'll be backing that for sure EW

  • Most over hyped tipster Pricewise and is showing a loss for the past two years but keeps on getting hyped with no stats provided from the Racing Post only a mention of a winner when it happens.Was given the stats at a Cheltenham preview evening and amazed how bad they are.
  • 2.50 Fox Appeal E/W 50/1 (5 places)

    Starts wide left, drifts inside a lot and struggles to get forward. When he does he just can't seem to get past the first horse.

    I've got a feeling Min is going to let a lot of people down. Altior has that devastating turn of pace and has answered many more questions than Min.

    I'm on Altior but will cover with Min forcast

    Edit: Henderson has a 100% strike rate when riding for the owner.
  • min drifting watched the morning line bookies saying there are going to take it on, as scared of the 4 fold landing.

    Pricewise was the original concept of a guy called Mark Cotton (he also wrote a couple of well received books including one called Value Betting). We are going back almost 30 years and by his own admission a lot of the recommendations were based on a particular bookmaker being out of line with the rest e.g. Ladbrokes going particularly short on an Irish horse. It was a cheap way of buying inside information that only the few (bookmakers in particular) were privy to.

    With the advent of Betfair there has, of course, been a complete turnaround where bookies no longer need moles in the top stables because the market offers a major clue to a particular horse's chances.

    Equally, whereas at one time, Segal et al were feared due to his influence, his lack of success, particularly over jumps means that they aren't quite so keen to halve a recommendations.

    Going back to Cotton, I spoke to him a decade ago and asked him how the punting was going. He said that he only had the odd fun bet as all value had gone and was a university lecturer - and the subject of his lectures had nothing to do with punting!

    is Vatour entered into the RyanAir or Gold Cup? When do the declarations have to be made by?

    Entered in both- But Ricci has said there's no chance of him going Ryanair, it'll be GC or stay at home
    I thought i read after he said that, Ruby Walsh was going to hold a meeting with him to try twist his arm.
    Vautour goes in the Ryanair instead of the Gold Cup!
