Interesting to read in yesterdays Racing Post that Harry Findley would rather take 8/11 Kauto Star than 9/2 Denman for the Gold Cup.

I'm guessing he's not alone.

Weird Al misses Cheltenham (leg injury).

Not long to go now before the Festival begins.

Any decent Festival guides in the papers today?

Buy today's Racing Post Wheels - get a behind enemy lines section too ie. what the bookies PR boys say and full form for every race on every day

Morning Supreme won easily yesterday - sadly Winters left the money in Cork so MS was never any bigger than 4/9. Still it all helps for Cheltenham

Cheers mate.

Williams has had a few winners recently 20/1 one today.

Should bode well for Deep Purple as it means the yard is finding some form after the bug that was going round.

Beshabar out of Coral Cup

Beshabar will not run in Wednesday's Coral Cup because the ground is too fast, Paul Nicholls has said this morning. The horse, a winner of handicap hurdles at Sandown and Ascot on his two most recent starts, had been 10-1 third-favourite for the race.

Can't wait till the festival.

Think Mobassher, Fredo and Frawley have good chances at biggish prices.

Got a treble on Voler La Vadette, Quel espirit and Long run.

Mourad and Shakervilz out too

Best guide there is Wheels - not read it all yet but buying the Racing Post each morning is a good idea too for all the form, cards, tipsters (some better than others) etc.
