Cheltenham 2008

Heard harchibald's trainer last weekend basically counting him out if the ground was soft so don't think its too wise to go against the trainer. Not sure whether to go for Sizing Europe or Sublimity but the general opinion seems to be that Sizing Europe is poor value. 5/1 is a decent price for the defending champ.

I did much the same meself.

Someone in work after telling me all is not well with Sizing Europe and could be pulled out. Not sure how true these rumours are tho he showed me a few text messages from mates who are over there. Anyone else here anything of this?

His price has drifted a small bit but nothing major.

There has been money for Harchibald this past hour, especially with Hills who have cut him from 8's to 13/2.

Mick Fitzgerald on criticism of Paul Carberry's riding of Harchibald: "He's a jockey, not a bloody psychiatrist".

An Accordian in the Bill Hill at 6/1 is my bet for the day. Hard to bet against Ruby and Carberry But that is the news so far anyway.

What's wrong with King harald?

Lads, why do none of you like Sizing Europe? Have also heard that story about Patsy Hall aiming for this race from last January. There is money on him this morning big time.
