With the gold cup looking fairly weak i wonder if trainer would be tempted to run him in that instead of hcap chase (which he looks fairly treated). I could easily see him powering up the hill to grab a place when others have crieadd me to his list of fans ive long had a soft spot for this fellow,but as pointed out,his jockey is useless,so much untapped potential there if ridden in a proper manner by a top jock,shame we may never see it though,Cracking e/w bet if he lines uphttps://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/28921669/knockara-beau?post_id=516430307#516430307add me to his list of fans ive long had a soft spot for this fellow,but as pointed out,his jockey is useless,so much untapped potential there if ridden in a proper manner by a top jock,shame we may never see it though,Cracking e/w bet if he lines upThu, 16 Feb 2012 10:39:47 -0600Agree with original poster and Flying Bolt.

Until that happens I could never back him over fences. With a good pilot he would be maximum bet material in the Scottish National.Of course if ran 3rd or 4th in the Gold Cup his handicap mark would be buggehttps://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/28921669/knockara-beau?post_id=516427017#516427017This horse badly needs a change of jockey.
