As Victoria Pendleton prepares to race at the Cheltenham Festival on Friday, 7 times Champion Jump Jockey, John Francome and Cheltenham Gold Cup winning jockey Andrew Thornton have their say on how she'll perform. Francome has his doubts - "Everything I've seen tells me she won't get round", adding, "I don't care if you're AP McCoy or Victoria Pendleton, you're in the lap of the gods". When asked about those who are backing Pendleton, Francome says, "They're seeing the dollar signs, not the warning signs" Thornton, however, sees some promise in the Olympic Champion, "I was very impressed with what I saw at Wincanton - but it will a different kettle of fish on Friday" This clip was taken from 5 at Cheltenham, on Tuesday 15th March.
