No way is that deliberate. He has a very high centre of gravity, he's leaning to correct the course and the jink means he's off balance to the left while the horse has no interest in following. Just a really shit bit of luck.Gravesend_Addick said:

My mate had no winners, until the last when he stuck £5 E/W on Tobacco Road (I think) & it won at 18/1 (I think).
Good day out.1 -
Absolutely mental they have the gate for the paddock about 10 yards from the finish. Notorious place for horse jinking to the right.PaddyP17 said:

Cheers. Have had a bit of a lash on it at 3/1 and 11/4 owing to a decent four-figure (off a fiver!) L15 return, so here's hoping!bobmunro said:
Today's declarations - 11 left in. Bellafina now generally 9/4 - 2/1bobmunro said:Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies - 2 November - Belafina.
Currently available at around 3/1 - it's a beast, definitely runs and will go off odds on. Expected to win.1 -
I’m going to Cheltenham on Saturday so any tips would be greatly appreciated!

5.30 Cheltenham. Magic Dancer will run very well.0

glad to see cheltenham back, early race meets like this one i usually avoid am excited to see how lilrockerfeller runs but havent backed it as i think it is a bit short.0

3.10 Cheltenham - my only one for today is an each-way burgle on Vive Le Roi. Has been in great form and while there's a 9lb rise, there's a lot to like about his previous win.1

have also had a smell squeeze on that, form would read 11 which is slightly unusual for this sort of race but skybet are 5 places so a place at worst would be happy with.PaddyP17 said:3.10 Cheltenham - my only one for today is an each-way burgle on Vive Le Roi.

Samcro to remain hurdling this year. The 10/3 available antepost on him winning the Champion Hurdle all of a sudden looks very very good.0

Will it go off odds on though? Here's hoping! Either way, a win means a big night out for me...bobmunro said:

No, I don't think it will now - will likely shorten on the night but not odds on.PaddyP17 said:

Samcro beat at Down Royal.
Does he need further than 2 miles now to show his very best?1 -
i think its hard to judge a horse like Samcro first time out, majority of the time the big names are out for fitness and if they win its a bonus.1
-
My personal view is that he needed more than 2 miles last season but was so good in novice company that it didn't make a material difference.Addick Addict said:Samcro beat at Down Royal.

Even before today I wouldn't have backed him for the CH and I expect him to run over longer distances, perhaps even novice chasing, despite what connections are saying.1
