I think i have one under the guise of "donkey" Norn.

Prospectus 4.50 @ 14/1 ew.
A mid 60's flat horse,it has to fit the bill but while i wouldn't be too finger on the pulse with English form he looks up against a fair few other donkeys, top weight Divin Bere seems to hold a few through Master Blue Eyes,maybe Martins is held also on that line. I think Prospectus has the best of the Irish form,the Giggys look held as does Linger on Zig Zag/Lord Justice lines.
I liked the manner of Prospectus 2 wins,came from behind and ears were pricked passing the post,the booking of Ruby is a positive,decent price but a tentative choice due to knowing very little with the UK opposition.
GL all.

.1st race I fancy bacardys and messire des obeaux
2nd acapella  bourgeois 
3rd Tombstone looks a good thing and is one  for early prices as it could end up very short. 4th in last year's supreme which is the form everyone is looking at.
4th Douvan good thing
5th  Cantlow is proven round cheltenham and on advantageous terms
6th stick a pin . Maybe nietscke

Nothing I'm crazy about just a few at big prices.
2.10 Heron Heights 33/1. Race has a bit of depth but I really like this horse, would be mad keen on him in a handicap but I'll chance him in this. Gets along very well with Enright and in all his wins he's done it really readily, always going well and settling the race fairly quickly. His course and distance win in October was very good, overcoming keenness and a bad mistake. I think he might be one of those that keeps getting better when put in better races, and he does nothing in front (he's very quirky).
2.50 Carrig Cathal 40/1. Mental price this for the most solid horse in the race. Has returned from a break in great form and I thought his Irish mark of 133 would translate to higher than 136.
3.30 Special Tiara 20/1. Not been in great form this year but mostly on soft ground which isn't his thing at all. If he's in the same form as he was last year he'll give Douvan the toughest race he's ever had, and the rest are useless.
4.10 Colour Squadron 28/1. Backed off the boards at Punchestown last time and made a solid cross country debut, can't see why he's such a huge price as he's every bit as classy as the other JP horses here and jumps fine. The trip is the worry.
4.50 Percy Street 28/1. Lots of these actually look on fair marks but Percy Street especially makes a lot of appeal. He's been pretty free over hurdles so far but hopefully can settle better tomorrow and with a flat mark of 98 should prove to be better than a 124 horse over hurdles.

With the gears Sutton place has shown and cheltenham runners might be over the top Sutton place connections must be eyeing up a big prize at aintree or punchestown

Scoir Mear had to go from wide to the rails and back to an outside lane again...

Had a nice bet at almost 4/1 a place the 5.

Good shot S T backers,what a flop Douvan was.

Me brother said RTE weren't covering Cheltenham,i was shocked, plenty of interest,i presume it must be cost cutting,very very poor.

Douvan too bad to be true,mentions pre race by Chapman of all not being well?

that was some sp compared to books!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure it may have something to do with Merkel! I'll come back to ya on that after i've "the lifetime payback guarantee" figured out.

TV3 are showing Cheltenham instead. I think it is just a case of ITV taking over from Channel 4 ans selling the rights to TV3 instead of RTE. ITV tend to sell their programmes like to TV3 and Channel 4 and BBC tend to deal with RTE.

Thanks Newsapproach,that makes sense, i was surprised it wasn't on,though the brother is a once a year punter,he probably didn't check that and just went to itv.

Ran a nice race alright wr maybe pocket talking but thought Katie had him very far back for most the race but maybe the ground wasn't quite as good as he needs it in fairness.
