Paddy Power GC 2012
Apologies for auto correct on CollonGes. Dammit.
A very exciting Paddy Power is ahead today. Competitive doesn't describe the race well enough. I still feel with Paul Nicholls' horses unsurprisingly in flying form already this season, that course specialist Poquelin could squeak into a place at a huge price. That price doesn't reflect his ability, especially around Cheltenham, but reflects the fact that there are better horses than him in the race. In fact, I'm sort of grimacing for a losing bet now. But you know me by now, I like plummeting my money on horses that are pretty much passed their best but who can still run a good race and finish... 4th. Dammit.
