What about Distant memories DH? Will it head to Cheltenham do u think? Will it there without another run?

[Donnellys Hollow]

Not looking good Mickey. He's 113 on Betfair and not even entered at Naas on Sunday which was probably he last chance for a prep run. Haven't a clue as regards the Supreme now. Tetlami has impressed me most of the English horses but he mightn't even be Henderson's third choice.

Had a decent bet on Monksland for the Neptune last weekend. Two out of the three horses ahead of him in the market currently will probably end up in different races.

Winner! with a bit of good fortune

[Candyman]

Lively Baron wins by 20+ lengths!!!!

(Only because the 16/1 outsider of the field who was cruising and 2lengths in front fell at the 2nd last)
