Not sure. Thought it was a few days before alright but might have changed. Don't ever remember that many horses listed two weeks before the off though!!

Yeah, I think they changed it last year. I would imagine most firms are NRNB at this stage, so you could take a chance
Also, Skybet are doing money back on all losers in the first race of each day for bets up to 20 quid again Edited by HuntysCousin - 26 Feb 2018 at 10:28pm |

RSA is a very loose race, though it has produced a decent bet for the following years gold cup. might bite winning last year and currently fav for GC. I know presenting percy won on good ground in the pertemps last year, but reckon the horse is better suited to heavier ground. RSA pace tends to be quite high, and if the ground is quick then it might be a bit too quick. should be a top race though.

Monalee is a tough horse, and Black Corton has been winning regularly since last Summer, so will be a good race hopefully

Anyone betting against Samcro in the Ballymore? Have a few quid each way on Kalashnikov, but no guarantees he runs in that instead of the Supreme

Footpad is drifting a bit today for some reason. Still a very short price, but you can get 13/8 which is pretty good considering he was evens before today

I have a feeling he’ll be around 2/1 on the day, and if he is he’ll be worth a good bet. But at current prices I don’t think so

Was at the Belfast one last night.
Usual panel - Gordon Elliott, David Casey, The Couch Winstanley, Richard Hoiles, Gary O'Brien, Neil Mulholland and a couple of bookies. I'll try to keep my summary as brief as possible. Supreme Novices - Casey said Getabird has a very good chance but thought it was short enough at 5/4 or 6/4. Most others said to avoid the favourite and that it was very short just because it was the big Irish hope and Willie Mullins in the first. There were no real serious tips here. Arkle - Casey very happy with Footpad, seemed more confident on it than Getabird. Couch said Petit Mouchoir jumped the first two very badly last time out and won't get away with that here. Saint Calvados not in the same class was the general consensus. Champion Hurdle - Buveur's to lose. Words for Elgin in the betting without the favourite. Also My Tent Or Yours each way. Casey didn't seem to have a clue if Yorkhill would go here or the Ryanair. He also seemed to have no clue which Faugheen would turn up and its just wait and see. Ballymore Novices - Samcro won't be beaten RSA - the English panellists all liked Presenting Percy while Casey and Mulholland give Black Corton a big chance. General consensus that the last day would have taken its toll on Monalee Champion Chase - Altior the one to beat, none of the panel were keen on Min. If Douvan had had a prep run and won it would be 6/4 and is the real danger to the favourite they thought, but its very doubtful it'll run Bumper - Elliott gave a good shout out to his only runner in the race Felix Desjy. Good words for the top 5 in the market from the other panellists with nothing really concrete Stayers Hurdle - very open race. Bacardys tipped up with Couch mocking Sam Spinners chances due to the jockey. The bookies will take on the top 3 in the betting they say and offered 5/1 on Supasundae today in their shops. Hoiles reckons La Bague Au Roi has a chance. Triumph - Couch & Mulholland thought Apples Shakira is a good thing having won 3 times already at Cheltenham. The Bookies want to take it on. Casey said Stormy Ireland is a small horse but is very powerful, won its first start this season by 50 odd lengths but the opposition weren't up to much and hasn't ran since. More or less said it could be anything. Elliot thinks Farclas can reverse form with Mr Adjudicator. Casey gave Sayo a mention each way at 25s Gold Cup - Couch and Hoiles bullish about Might Bite. The rest of the opposition is poor Couch thinks. Kilultagh Vic got a good few mentions while Total Recall could get a place Mulholland thinks They're trying headgear with Djakadam to see if it makes a difference. Other tips - They more or less all thought Un De Sceaux would be the nap of the meeting and is a good price at 9/4 Laurina will definitely win Casey said, though will be short odds. Elliott likes the chances of Cause of Causes, De Plotting Shed and Dounikos Other tips I remember off the top of my head - Project Bluebook, Bouvereil, Long House Hall, Storyteller, Rathvinden in the 4 miler |

No, he was just presenting and chairing the discussions. Didn't give any opinions or tips of his own sadly, as he's one of the best about.
