Would like to point out the obvious though, that Paul Nicholls is some trainer!

Having said that, he did run a perfectly respectable race (the hard way) today, so maybe I'm being a bit harsh.

Its nice to see he's at a stable that know how to train horses now, just a shame he wasn't with Nicholls from day one.https://community.betfair.com/horse_antepost/go/thread/view/94098/29503607/hennessy-cognac-we-need-it-gold-cup?post_id=526517129#526517129I'd be worried about Tidal Bay not having Ruby in the gold cup, been defending Tidal Bay for a very long time.
