Seabass runs tomara in NAAS

Divers looks cracking value to follow up on last year's festival suucess.

Not without Graham Lee on board...

rumour that ferdy is trying to secure the services of paul carberry  to ride divers.

BJ in post race interview suggests forgetting Cheltenham and going to Aintree(Topham) with Hunt ball,so nothing concrete decided with him at all.

rumour that ferdy is trying to secure the services of paul carberry to ride divers

That's news to me.  Jockeys haven't been discussed nor will they be until the weights are published. There will be no shortage of top jockeys available so no panic.

Mark - Are you the owner of Divers? If so, good luck - I think he's got a great chance and he's in great hands with Ferdy!!

jetodd - Mark is the Racing Manager of the Lets Live Racing syndicate who own Divers

AP McCOY is confirmed for Divers in the Bryne Plate.

Great news !

Diver nailed on imv.

Fine Parchment 33-1 ldbks nrnb. Looks a great price, e.w. for me. Course winner, ran well behind Hector's Choice at Aintree earlier this season. His h'cap has dropped back to a winning mark. Maybe want it softer than he'll get, but not sure about that.

A bloody nightmare in the recent past!

Anyone else still wake up in a cold sweat after dreaming about Mister McGoldrick blitzing the lot of 'em at 66/1 a few years back.

WTF was that all about??

BYRNE GROUP HANDICAP CHASE comments from the preview evenings so far.......

Paul Nicholls said Crack Away Jack would run here, seemed quite keen on a decent run as well I thought

David Pipe said Salut Flo was entered in just about every race; there was some money for this one yesterday in this race. DP- Keen on Salut Flo. Still young hopefully at right end of handicap in Byrne Group Plate. Entered in other races.
