1. Henderson getting his excuses in early and calling it horrible ground.
2. New untried distance 2m 5f around a tough course. Does he have the stamina?
3. Had a hard race in the Clarence House last time and is now 10 years old.
4. In the Clarence House he won but the 2/5F fell and it was an incredible power packed ride by James Bowen that got him home.
5. Pic D'orhy loves Ascot and Nicholls is bullish
6. Huge massive downgrade on jockey today. James Bowen unfortunately replaced by Henderson's mate - glorified amateur Nico who will give up if it doesn't look like a steering job.
Should be 5/6F Even money IMO. This is one to watch.

Some riders get lucky with certain trainers and owners (favourite boys)….
Moore admits that he got lucky…..
Buick and J Doyle also ….
Then there is Havlin blue eyed boy with Gosden and certain owners…..2 decades to win a group 1 in one of the best yards in Newmarket….

Have you actually backed your opinion,Newmarket?
It is a simple enough question.
The opinion of the utterly hapless loser Aceform is of no consequence.

I would steer clear of any today that are aiming at Cheltenham, Jonbon, Alexi, Myretown (also for various other reasons). Jonbon has been a great horse, paid it's way .... I think Cheltenham is more their prize than another Grade 1.
Afterthought - you might be right but I cant see Jonbon winning the Ryanair can you?
Clarky9 - horrible was Hendersons word. He might be referring to it being really tacky rather than heavy.
Today's race is the race in question not the Ryanair
Didn't see it beating Il et temps but Jonbon jumped the fences - it happened at Ascot so can certainly happen at Chelts ..... Looked beat on the turn for home last time but stayed on, looked to me it may have won even without It et temps falling, they were all tired......soft ground today and 4 weeks before Cheltenham ..... not for me. I would rather lay an odds on shot than back it.

Afterthought - A great ride from James Bowen got him home combined with the 2/5F falling and one of the others pulling up. You can see from my reasons above that this is one to watch. If Jonbon does win today I'd be surprised if its an easy victory.
Newmarket Spurs If you cannot answer a simple question, then what are you doing on here ?? Can you just answer the question or is that beyond your capability. ? Is that plain enough English for you Einstein I do not think so. Go get a life dumbo..
I wouldn't run Jonbon at Cheltenham.
Even Hendo has admitted it's not Jonbon's favourite track.
Freshen him up and save him for Aintree.

Both fav and 2 nd fav have done well at Ascot,who wins,your guess will be as good as mine,good race to watch and enjoy.
Let's hope Jonbon has better luck than Altior when attempting a distance further than 2m for the 1st time. I think and hope he'll win otherwise....
The helmet should play he likes to buy money…….hero in the saddle what more could you ask….?
always interesting to see what firms want to take it on
only Skybet (Evens) appear to have stuck their neck out today on JonBon
B365 have a boost on PicDory in the race
and Alexei at Evens at Wincanton

Jerseyboy - you really are a class a moron. I wrote 'THIS IS ONE TO WATCH' so obviously I'm not getting involved it either way. Lost for words. Another who sits in his basement spending all day jumping at the opportunity to bully & attack people because your life is so empty and vacant.
You're the big man - well done.
You're the big man - well done.
Some of you know I thought 5-2 worth a shot on Pic D'orhy and that Jonbon was to short at 1-2 even 4-9, well worryingly 365 Have pushed him out to 11/4 with a bet boost, I though Denise might want to take Jonbon on but she is keeping well clear so seemingly confidence in Jonbon is strong
The thick "Two Bobber" remains desperate for me to talk with him
It does appear that the one Denise wants to take on today is Alexei, she is offering the days SUPER BOOST and offering evens, obviously only to 365 customers though
AFTERTHOUGHT - I agree. It really is one of those races where anything that happens to Jonbon wouldn't be a major surprise. He is now in to 4/9F so maybe it will be a steering job but at those odds I'm leaving well alone. He won't be winning at Cheltenham IMO so this is a good move in what is the twilight of his career.
A true horseman would probably get it round and it would be trading 1/4 tbh….
formoftherace.... I went back and watched Jonbon win the Clarence House and that was a terrific ride from James Bowen. Like his brother he never gave up and managed to get him home in tough conditions..... Putting aside what we both think about 'point to point' I think he is very unlucky not to keep the ride. Surprised JP didn't step in.
That just might be because the Stable Jockey is riding,you obsessive cretin
hey..its all about opinions...av ewe laid it please?

Your evens chance is now 3.55
How much is your opinion worth to you?.
.........................
The thread title said 4/7 was the wrong price. It was, but still you pick.
He said he wasn't having a bet, but still you pick.
You must have had some beatings in your life, the internet must have been a godsend.

It looks like a lot of people are getting pretty fed up with you, UTI. You’re not a very pleasant man. Sniping and name calling on a daily basis. It’s getting a bit tedious now imo.
Dropped in and this is all fighting

You don’t even need to ignore them. The problem is that you can’t take an objective stance without calling them a cretin, moron or thicko etc.
Novel/ingenious tactic from Dan Skelton in the next...in order to get Kateira's handicap mark down you'd imagine? 
I’ll give the helmet the good old saying “ away and get fkn stuffed “
Lol,I enjoyed that tbh….

I think this is the perfect time to announce that I blocked Forum Bully - Uptheirons about 5 months ago and I have no idea what he is saying. He is frothing at the mouth and I'm just laughing my head off.
Uptheirons - please go and seek some help for your anger issues. Its just opinions on horses ,jockeys & trainers. Myself and a few others really don't rate Nico for example whilst some on here disagree. From day 1 you started personally abusing myself and others. Now I just wind you up.
Just go away and leave this forum. You're a nasty piece of work.
(remember I cant read your reply lol)

1.51 Jonbon who would take those odds? Horse can put in some strange jumping!
I have little doubt that Jonbon will stay the trip
I didn't get any of the 1.7 and have not played yet

spurs ewe are fckn hopeless.

and there aint a jockey riding could have given it a better ride.
Careful Rico as you are likely to be called a bully or even Blocked
ascot jumps usually throws up good finishes just a shame only 8 fixtures a year 
Fantastic heart by the winner, in spite of the second getting a much better ride. Horse really deserved that.
Thought I was on the winner. Very enjoyable race none the less. Beautiful horse

He won - just. I think he's an unlikely winner at Cheltenham in The Ryanair, if he goes there.
Almost but not quite.
He won on the horse in a battle.

new course 2m 5f will suit a lot more than short of 2m old course
If you were on heavy at 1/2F then well done. A bit too close for comfort at those odds.
Did anybody say he would win a Ryanair,Implausible?

Nico has a lot of knockers but gave it a lovely ride
Not too bad for a supposed PTP rider as stated by the Chuckle Brothers
I watched it rico,looked terrified at the last….
The grade one got him home….

Certainly a good spectacle for NH……but my opinion regarding the rider stays the same….
david,sorry but your talking absolute and utter nonsense,Jonbon got a yard to close and he lifted its head perfectly..watch the reply and apologise for making clown comments..

completely understandable to back off & sit a stalking 2nd when up 1/2m in trip
but PD was allowed the run of the race just jonbon the superior horse

Guys its all about everyone having their own opinion, sometimes we get things right and sometimes we dont, its no biggy, lets not crucify anyone just for having a view on a race, thats just silly, for what its worth I do not disagree with a single point the original poster made, they were all valid reasons for Jonbon to get beat especially at 1-2 up against a quality horse in Pic D'Orhy, after the fact all those views are still as valid as they were when posted, nobody mentioned anything to Jonbon thats all
Never had a problem with an opposing view from somebody that actually knows a bit,Manuel.

Ascot is up hill from a long way out, its a stiff finish for sure
steady uphill climb from swinley bottom & 2m 5f they do that twice
