The horse won very impressively over course & distance on the New Year's Day meet and is only 5lb higher tomorrow. Plenty of excuses for the disappointinggreat shout Glossy, had him picked shortlisted too, but never got on in the end. Freaked!https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/28997757/houblon-des-obeaux?post_id=517560677#517560677great shout Glossy, had him picked shortlisted too, but never got on in the end.

The ground looks on the softer side to me. Jockeys splattered with mud at the end. A lot softer than it was yesterday.https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/28997757/houblon-des-obeaux?post_id=517559549#517559549Good pick.

Also thought he needed soft ground however if it had have been you would probably had the win as wellStayed on powerfully up the hill.https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/28997757/houblon-des-obeaux?post_id=517559315#517559315Great call.

If it wasn't Cheltenham I would be giving it a swervehttps://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/28997757/houblon-des-obeaux?post_id=517542307#517542307Certainly got a chance then.

This horse is an improver whilst it's probably fair to say that we're not likely to see much improvement at this stage from KA. andy85 - I think it probably would like a little more cut in the groundhttps://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/28997757/houblon-des-obeaux?post_id=517539517#517539517Can't really see a 1lb swing making a difference.

BTW they are closely weighted but i personally don't trust Kayf Aramis and he's 10 where Houblon is 5 and there is a chance he could improve.https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/28997757/houblon-des-obeaux?post_id=517539457#517539457Andy I think people thought he wanted soft over 2 miles where actually he needed 3 miles.
