Wouldn't trust Nicky Henderson as far as I could throw him. Doubt Hills would make such drastic price changes based on hearsay, but then there must be some logic behind their decisions.

depends on binoculars price on the day, a drift will probably mean JP has got the gold down before hedging it.

purely me being sceptical of course.

rock on ruby has just as much chance as zarkandar IMO, fehily a better jock than jacob and the stiff finish is right up RoR's street as he was just touched off last year in the neptune by the very strongly finishing first leiutenant.

oscar's well could also lay it down to zarkandar.

the logic behind those two offers surely is that a peak binocular could rattle the fly, and that unless zark sprouts wings has a job on for third. people will see it as 8/1 nice profit if he finishes third, but not quite that simple IMO.

what about ten quid per person per race or 5er e/w? i know the points way would be easier, but that way would maybe give a truer refelection?

i dont mind, either way i'll have a stab.

Zarkandar has a lot to find on official ratings, could well improve significantly but perhaps going out to beat the big guns could see him beaten into a place.
Had a dream last night that Hurricane Fly fell at the last when cruising and Quevega was beaten on the bob, woke up in a cold sweat!

see willie has left her in the world hurdle, along with another 5. along with the rest of his entries so far, he gets harder to second-guess by the day!

Andy;
Hills just trying to get money in the kitty to pay out the Fly backers.

Put me in the comp aswell please.

I am going out shortly for the tradional pre-cheltenham booze up.

Should be good.

Count me in for a competition if ones being done.

Can't wait for it to start now!

I like the sound of that way - Odds will be the ones showed by Racing Post on their Results page.
