Didn’t get time to watch that.

Jack Kennedy was recently on the Road To Cheltenham on Racing TV and I found him fascinating. What jumped out me was when he was asked about the Supreme, he went straight to Firefox, without even blinking.
Elliott was very similar when interviewed on Royal Bond day. Farren Glory had just won a Grade One, but he didn’t even pause when asked who his best novice over two miles was, again reaching for Firefox.

Facile v Gaelic v marine with a couple of Noel morans thrown in.

Don’t forget last year there was a few odds on shots turned over.

Yep that’s why it’s so disappointing the likes of Gerri columbe doesn’t turn up.

You have some chance of upsetting Mullins here.

He missed it last year too. Went to the Scilly Isle chase in Sandown the same weekend.

I can’t get at the price but Intellotto is all sorts of wrong at 12s.

I’d have him close to second fav. 12s is at least double the price imo.
