Tizzard should supplement Cue Card, because he'd win, and it'd really p*ss off his Gold Cup backers!

im on arvika ew at 16s. hopefully it can just bomb it from the front, s**t or bust. but you could now make a case for half a dozen.
|

By:
I bet Tizzard is regretting taking Cue Card out now.

Supplemetary stage available
Be careful |

By:
Gutted on two fronts. 1. Was really looking forward to seeing SS again
2. Was very very tempted to take the 10/1 NRNB on benefficient this afternoon. That will be long gone now |

Don't fancy any of them and they've all got questions to answer.
No winner this year imo. |
|
By:
PP have Sire De Grugy at 5/4 now
 That's very short considering they were taking him on in their daily special today.Reformed market top prices (not including Betfair): SDG 7/4 Arvika 5/1 Beneficient 6/1 Al Ferof 7/1 Captain Conan 7/1 Kid Cassidy 12/1 |

I don't agree the Tizzards will be gutted.
They knew at the time they withdrew him the doubts surrounding SS. They are after the big prize and rightly so. Sire De Grunge is the most likely winner despite people looking at his defeat by Kid Kasdidy, but I'll take a chance on Captain Conan |

Somersby for Terry wouldn't that be great
|

If Hinterland wins the QMum after last years form Simonsig will be rated 243 by April.

By:
Sizing Europe has nothing to beat.
|
|
By:
When is the supplementary stage, and what is the cost? Its idiotic he was taken out in the first place. Shocking race now.
|
|
By:
I'd love to see Sizing win it, but I don't think it'll happen for the old boy. I still think he would have beaten Finians fairly cosily if it wasn't for that last fence fiasco a few years ago, so he deserves another one for that.
The beaten ones he finished ahead of last year are no where near as strong as the one's he'd face this year. |
|
By:
Sizing has looked a shadow of himself this year though WC. Had Benefficient backed for Ryanair, will surely go for QM now, so bad news on top of bad news really.
|
|
By:
I think the supplementary stage is Thursday before the race judging on what happened with Mail de Bievre last year.
I think the cost was £17,500 last year so something similar I imagine. Backed Sizing Europe NRNB before his last run, you'd have to lay him based on that performance but hopefully you never know. Also managed to get on Al Ferof NRNB tonight before the announcement @ 16's. Can see him going close and surely this is the most likely option now |
|
By:
Sizing is 12 so can't be at his peak, but won 1st time up this season, then beat into 2nd over 3m like he always is. Last race at Xmas, put a line through it. Don't know why they made the running and had a long lead, was sure to tire. I think he's great value against this lot on a course he loves.
|
|
By:
He was beaten too far out though at Down Royal for the trip to be the sole cause though. To my eye, he has had enough, and should be given a well deserved retirement.
|
|
By:
It's worth another go with Sizing. I wouldn't be surprised to see him place. There's no chance of Cue Card running here; connections would have considered this eventuality before deciding to scratch him.
I put last year's awful run from Arvika down to a need to go right handed, but he had won left handed before the Arkle, so maybe the poor effort was down to his fall lto. I'm not confident about this opinion, but there's so many question marks about everything in the race that I'm struggling to pick something. |

By:
Captain Chris would win if entered
|

His Excellency
|
|
By:
Or... when does Mad Moose's ban expire?
|
|
By:
Captain Chris can't seem to go left handed nowadays. He probably needs further too. If the wanted to run him at the Festival though, he should have been entered in the Ryanair.
|
|
By:
Arvika for me, think hes the best horse in the race,and took nice prices on here ages ago.
Better going the other way I know, but he ran ok left handed earlier in season,and hope a more positive ride will make the difference. Outsider of interest is Baily Green if he runs. That's my bets. |
|
By:
Can't believe that Sire de G is still 3.1 on here. He is surely rated as far in front of the rest as SS was in front of him so should be around evens plus a bit for the non runner possibility. The 2 outsiders that would appeal for a place are Alderwood and Wishful Thinking if they turn up on the day.
|
|
By:
Sire de grugy is a lay here at the prices. Record is best away from this track.
Captain Conan n Arvika are shocking prices as well given that the former has had one run this year -only 3rd- and the latter is a right handed track horse. If Hinterland was to finish in top 3 I'd have to go back to betting school |
|
By:
I've taken Al Ferof ew 20/1 NRNB Kid Cassidy ew 32 Benefficient 25 after laying Sacre at 2.1 and just added Baily Green 27
|

By:
Arvika Legionnaire decent horse but concern is the left handed track.
March 2010 Cheltenham 3m 4th of 19 beat 27 lengths December 2012 Leopardstown 2m 1f 1st of 5 won by 2 lengths March 2013 Cheltenham 2m PU of 7 December 2013 Leopardstown 2m 1f 3rd of 7 beat 1 length So that's 41P3 over left handed with the P being pulled up in the Arkle when never travelling. Zero appeal at current odds. |
|
By:
got 50 on here for Arvika, so expect to have a concern or 2.
current price would be ok if it were right handed, not gonna be a high class race so may bet away with it left handed, especially with the fav seeming not to be a Cheltenham horse. |
