so what we reckon then a 5 runner QMCC??
|
|
By:
4/5 runners max
Shocking entry |
|
By:
Thought Mail De Bievre was suppose to be going QM route?
|
|
By:
needs to be supplemented .
|
|
By:
Sizing Europe v Cue Card v Finnian's Rainbow v Sprinter Sacre would be a great Queen Mother...
|
|
By:
Unfortunately the first 3 prob have more chance of meetin in the Ryanair
 |
|
By:
The Arkle and Champion Chase look like being miniscule field efforts.
The Grand Annual could be an interesting (and potentially trends-busting) race if not-quite-top-class animals go down the handicap route this time around. |
|
By:
QM - 5 runners:-
Sanctuaire Sprinter Sacre Tataniano Wishfull Thinking Mail De Bievre (if supplemented), all the others going Ryanair imho. Ryanair will be the race of the festival! |
|
By:
Realt Dubh not in the Ryanair (didn't spot that) so he will probably be QM bound.
Not that he has a hope! |
|
By:
Noel Meade Stable Tour on RP yest said he was very unlikely to travel to CHelt, will prob b kept in Ire

By:
So Cape Tribulation going for the gold cup

Entries for the 11 handicaps at the Cheltenham Festival close at mid-day tomorrow.
Expect Barry to have them up here on Wednesday  |

By:
Finian's Rainbow target likely to be QM chase according to Henderson on SL site
|
|
By:
20/1 e/w doesn't look too bad given the race lacks strength in depth. 2nd and 3rd favs might not even turn up. Obv his form this year is a worry especially since he ran decent enough races on heavy earlier on in his career.
