His first two runs this season were superb, and while many were dissapointed with his effort behind Menorah, off level weights it has to be said, he was not right that day, Tizzard was horribly out of form as the yard suffered with the weather and he couldn't work his horses as he liked, so basically a 70% fit Cue Card got within 7 lengths on Menorah...that my friends is FORM! He's gonna come to the race mad fresh, he loves the track, he's been there, seen it and done it all before, Spirit Son and Sprinter Sacre are very good but they've yet to really be in a race, Zaidpour they can't decide whether he wants this trip or slightly longer, and then there's Recession Proof, who beat Bothy in receipt of weight with the jockey's claim in the Totesport Trophy but a neck; the same Bothy who Menorah beat by a next giving almost two stone too!!
I understand people's concerns about Supreme Novice favourites, but Cue Card is bombproof, and if you don't back him you're a fool. Tizzard is still convinced he could win the Champion Hurdle this year, and he won't have to be half that good to win this race, it's a penalty kick! He's no Dunguib, he's an absolute gift to punters on the opening day; backing a Cheltenham winner will never be this easy again! Don't miss out, please!
you may be right dwm but the festival is littered with beaten short priced good things my instinct is to be against it with something at a bigger price and i will probably lay cue card especially if it shortens but good luck with your bets mate

Fair enough fellas, after last year I just want the bookies cleaned out, and im so strongly convinced this is where we start! They'll be falling over themselves to lay him tomorrow, and id love to make them pay!
Good luck all!! :)
