    Cheltenham Day 3

    I know some people who are LUMPING on Big Bucks to win the World Hurdle.

    Some people I didn't even know gambled putting huge sums of money on it.

    Can anyone make a case for me not to follow in?

    Grand crus is the only danger. If he lives up to expectation he could be the one. He has looked awesome so far. Don't know the stats on ten year olds in the stayers but big bucks has to lose sometime. You may never get grand crus at these odds again if he wins today so I'm gonna go with him.

    Cracking race

    Good point Jim. However you do get the 'expert' once a year gamblers winning and telling everyone how easy it is to pick winners every now and again too

    He's definitely the most likely winner Dodge. Only thing about him is that he hits a flat spot in his races and if anything can pour it on during that phase of the race he could get into trouble (he's not got a great turn of foot, he's more about high cruising speed). I suspect that's just as likely to be one or other of the Mullins horses as Grands Crus - he probably wouldn't want ground this fast. I wouldn't rule out Zaynar over 3 miles for the first time either.

    Up to yourself but I won't be on him - not my type of bet.

    Got there but Christ I wouldn't have liked to have been piled into him him coming to the last, Grands Crus looked to be coming like a train. Couldn't understand why Ruby wasn't whipping him up the hill, turns out he dropped it!
