    2:10 Superb Story - there is a big message for it.

    9/1 Ladbrokes, 1/4 odds first 5 home, money back as a free bet if it finishes second.

    I will boost the protest fund if this wins.

    In Aiden's name, but trained by Joseph as he couldn't get his license on original date they gave him...Breeders Cup Day...he was a little busy riding that day & they take ages to rearrange.

    That's me done. Absolute shite from Zubayr.

    was similarly disappointed with Sceau Royal's run.

    My granddad had had links to Alan King so I always have an eye on following his horses at Cheltenham as it used to be a conversation piece with my granddad. he has been an absolute disaster for me over the years, with more often than not me missing the occasional winner he has had!

    no doubt Smad Place, which I haven't done, will romp home in Gold Cup....

  • It wont Dan, rest assured as Ive backed it.

    Can't believe that you backed the very same 6 horses as me, although I've also backed All Yours in next. I wish you the very best of luck!!

    Great win for Superb Story. Sorry @superclive98 that didn't last long did it. Had an e/w on the Acca and Starchitect was vying for 3rd/4th and managed to get 5th instead! :-(
