Could this end up as a quality rather than quantity renewal? There is a chance that the big guns will force the connections of some of the lesser lights to seek other tarhttps://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/30628071/how-many-will-actually-line-up-in-the-king-george?post_id=547206591#547206591RP just tweeted Smad Place due to run@RacingPost: BREAKING: Hennessy hero Smad Place set to run in the King GeorgeMon, 21 Dec 2015 02:58:39 -0600https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/30628071/how-many-will-actually-line-up-in-the-king-george?post_id=547204737#547204737Apache Stronghold is at 580 and Southfield Theatre at 510 on here, so they're not running. I'd be surprised if Menorah runs; he's ran in the last two renewals and finished 8/10 and PU. I think it depends on Smad Place: if he runs it's 8 runners, 7 ifSun, 20 Dec 2015 17:34:46 -0600https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/30628071/how-many-will-actually-line-up-in-the-king-george?post_id=547204631#547204631wait how come only 8? so there's silviniaco conti, al ferof, cue card, vautour, don cossack, irish c., smad places, menorah, southfield t, apache s, thats 10.. anything else ?

If he doesn't get in the mix on Boxing Day, then I guess it's The Ryanair or as you say, wait for Aintree.Wed, 16 Dec 2015 08:52:59 -0600https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/30628071/how-many-will-actually-line-up-in-the-king-george?post_id=547153461#547153461I'd say Aintree is a more likely course. Kempton seems to find an awful lot of the two and a half maybe three milers out.Wed, 16 Dec 2015 07:54:54 -0600https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/30628071/how-many-will-actually-line-up-in-the-king-george?post_id=547153239#547153239Apache Stronghold will probably turn up at Kempton.If it's going to get 3-miles (at Championship pace) anywhere it's at KemptonWed, 16 Dec 2015 07:22:37 -0600https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/30628071/how-many-will-actually-line-up-in-the-king-george?post_id=547152929#547152929I can see now why they weren't keen on putting up the 10k for the King George.Really sad to see him out for the season. The big Xmas races & the Gold Cup will be the worse for it.I'm in Conti ew myself, reasonably happy a bet to nothing if he turns uWed, 16 Dec 2015 06:36:34 -0600https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/30628071/how-many-will-actually-line-up-in-the-king-george?post_id=547152239#547152239You could be right, I can't see there being 8 for sure - now looking like 5 or 6.Getting better for Vautour all the time.Wed, 16 Dec 2015 03:59:15 -0600
