It's like last year all over again for him. Only 2lb higher when winning comfortably and 3lb less than when narrowly beat into 2nd. I'm not a believer that he doesn't handle soft, surYup the year before it ran terrible races prior to Cheltenham then oh so nearly won.......... again, last year I thought it had a lot to do with the weight it was carrying but I figured it might just do it, however it ran very well in defeat, just sohttps://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/29777071/son-of-flicka-331-bet366?post_id=529174207#529174207Yup the year before it ran terrible races prior to Cheltenham then oh so nearly won.......... again, last year I thought it had a lot to do with the weight it was carrying but I figured it might just do it, however it ran very well in defeat, just soTue, 19 Feb 2013 14:42:23 -0600TBF I think gmooh ran mostly to his ability last year. The year before was a lot more suspect. Is he being aimed at the World Hurdle this year? Seems to love Cheltenham but probably too high for any of the handicaps now.https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/29777071/son-of-flicka-331-bet366?post_id=529150523#529150523TBF I think gmooh ran mostly to his ability last year.

I can't stand these horses that only try once a year, it's an insult to watch them canter around all winter on bad ground.Why does the handicapper not do something? Just ignore every run thishttps://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/29777071/son-of-flicka-331-bet366?post_id=529147467#529147467No offense to backers, but I really hope he's tailed off.

Only 3lb higher than when winning the Centenary Novices Hcap 2 years ago.He doesn't win very often but looks very well h/capped for Chelts this yearhttps://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/29777071/son-of-flicka-331-bet366?post_id=529147207#529147207Regarding Divers, he was 4th last year off 7lbs higher, and placed in the paddy power off 9lb higher.

A very similar profile to last year and you can see Adrian lane being put on just before Cheltenham as before.
