I set that up for you hours ago Hughsie …what took you so long … take it as a early Xmas present
I was watching Algeria Vs Sudan combined with peeling the carrots
Charles Darwin to conquer the World
Ah ok , I’ve just spent 20 minutes trying to wrap a small square box , it’s now finished and looks like something your find at Santa’s murder scene….
“Price boost. Some bookies i am with occasionally give a price boost offer.”
Of course.
Iroko and Panic Attack the early bets here, with Three Card Brag added
Huge question marks over whether any of these will even get an entry
Iroko 260’s
Panic Atrack 460’s
Three Card Brag 470’sThe Jukebox Man & Jango Baie for me so far.
Both 8/1
I think both will improve again from now to March. Jango is only 6 going on 7 and bred for 3 miles. TJM’s jumping and cruising speed are world class. If the ground is decent, he’ll go very close.
He would’ve won the 3m novice hurdle there a couple of years ago but for the appalling ground conditions.I had Iknowthewayurthinkin at a big price last year and still think he’s the one to beat this year but would want bigger than 4s. Cromwell would need to start finding some form soon also.
I’d fancy Galopin if he went straight there after Christmas. If he runs in the Hennessy, his 10yo legs won’t have time to recover for the big one. I feel they left their 3rd Gold Cup at Leopardstown last February.
It’s Grey Dawning who seems to be the forgotten horse in the field to me.
I’ll be having some 14’s in the morning.
“I’ll be having some 14’s in the morning.”
He will want soft ground conditions in March to be seen to best effect, so something to consider if you want to risk it now.
He would absolutely be seen to best effect on soft Mike. But he’s put down a serious performance at Haydock. And crucially in comparison to others either hasn’t had a hard race. Or, in comparison to inothewayurthinkin and ftf performed well when he was expected to.
Did Bafta see Cromwells performance , if so he should clear a place n the mantlepiece , the bookies haven’t fell for it , next time look out for the movement side to side of the course and you’ll know the horse is spot on again
Maybe the Gold Cup curse has struck last season’s winner but as HDLG says, the bookmakers were not fooled and I doubt many punters were either.
I took the 6/1 yesterday. I expect him to run better in February and then be favourite on The Day That Matters.
If he wins, I wonder how many pundits will question the runs in the Durkan and the Savills?
I would find it disappointing should Inothewayurthinkin win. I like to see the winner have some decent form figures to their name and not 5s and 9s. His overall chase record though is 25% wins to runs and combine that with places it is 50%.
The more I know the less I understand.
Although he is gonna be 10, I could not resist the 7/1 for Galopin des Champs. Let’s start a rain dance already.
Galopin des Champs 7/1
Bend what’s his form at Cheltenham in March … The bookies haven’t forgotten and neither have I , Cromwell has one job , March , I get people may not like it but go back and watch last year’s race , nobody has destroyed GDC like that before , he put him to bed with cocoa and a teddy bear in 3/4 strides
