Cheltenham Gold Cup thoughts

Rooting for Exotic Dancer & Tony McCoy all the way, although that uphill finish is not to be taken lightly. Jumping blunders late on in his last two triumphs mean Im just not convinced about Kauto Star.... Anyone rooting for an outsider??

Kauto Star - providing he stands up !
Have only just got over cheering Gaspara up the hill (wiping out my losses and making me a winner - what a relief)

I have an each way bet on kauto star and exotic dancer though i just have a bad feeling about KS for some reason, after seeing the favourite fall at the second in the queen mother today i'm feeling very uneasy about whether KS's jumping can stand the test

I think Well Chief's fall was caused by the amazing speed they were travelling at the time.
If Ruby can get Kauto Star concentrating then he'll win.
