Atr festival preview

If you have a reasonable racing knowledge likely you would have learnt nothing. It's closer to two hours even though they virtually ignored the handicaps. Boycie clueless, and the others more irritating than informative.

not ATR but seen 2 different pundits talk re cheltenham that this year looks like being soft ground cheltenham first time in a long time

breathtaking

i noticed a few incl that one had started appearing on youtube, tried a diff one and gave up after 5, a discussion about the betting

Blake napped a 20/1 shot, which probably means he has not properly understood what is meant by nap. There were some price boosts but obviously they've gone now. Jamie Codd felt elated when he rode Cheltenham winners (thanks to MC for extracting that gem).

If you want to know their naps, next bests and charity bets, just watch the last five minutes or so on ATR or Youtube.

At this stage, you are not going to get much insight. The handicap weights have only just come out; the novices have shown their hands; Willie Mullins has not announced his plans which means everyone who fits their entries around Willie's can't decide yet either, and of course we do not know the going.

some of the panels lined up for the coming week are bottom of the barrel stuff

Did listen to a couple several years ago , that's 2 hours of my life i'll never get back   

back in the day i liked the leeds one dale tempest slybet at the time,ferdy murphy and a few narrthern jocks , obviously not much interest in what the narrth has to say about chelt these days

The problem with all these previews is they spend 90 per cent of the time telling us what we already know about the championship races and the other 10 per cent making random guesses that we don't believe about the handicaps.

Thanks for the input.bit the bullet & just watched it.nothing much to take out of it,it did cross my mind it was very early re handicap weights etc.feared the worst when chapman was draped in a Union Jack flag doing his Big Mac impersonation but he was just on the right line of insufferable.Codd & chapman seem convinced that CH will run in the ch hurdle not borne out by present markets,marked a couple of the bigger price Irish runners mentioned,that’s about it.

The Newbury racecourse preview will be streamed on Youtube at 7pm today (Thursday) so might be worth watching for boosted prices if you have a BetVictor account.

Join Richard Hoiles, Jim McGrath, Jamie Snowden, JJ Slevin, Sam Boswell, Gavin Sheehan and Mark Boylan to get the inside track.



Panel is a bit on the large side imo if six or seven talk about every race.

Thanks for the link.

Given that he was visiting the yard today, Chapman was never going to say that Constitution Hill wasn't going to run.

The Ladbrokes one from Ireland is live on

Mark Boylan is on both so presumably at least one was recorded.
