    kutz,

    First, what price did you get and second, what convinces you it is nailed on and that it is definitely aimed at the Gold Cup?

    The jumps are not my speciality, but you seem unusually confident, or is it just bluster?

    I couldn’t have this beast at all until he shows he can mix it this season without the benefit of his rather generous 5-y-o allowance.

    I’m on it 50/1 thank you. The value lies with other horses now Trabolgan and Monet’s Garden to name two.

    I think Monets could turn out be terrific.  Trabolgan I think is overated but perhaps he can improve aswell.<br>

    Trabolgan for me.

    doesnt he just somehow look the part?

    in the right hands of course and bags of improvement to come …i would imagine.

    Beef or Salmon for me!:biggrin:

    Seriously though, how anybody can say that SdeM is nailed on against the likes of KK, WoA, and Trabolgan is beyond me.

    Yeah agreed, ridiculous. Previous season novices simply need more time to make it. I think he’d have a great chance as a 7yo, but this season, no chance. Trabolgan for me – I think KK will win the Punchestown GC though. He’ll just need more time to get back to his best.

    i thought trabolgans injury was pretty light though grass and he could have run again last season ? Didnt they just play it safe?

    Kutz, Darkness is surely a national horse if it learns how to jump, or at least an out and out stayer and the Listener for me never had the pace to win a grade 1 chase.. Not a great RSA for me.. I think you’ve done your money.. More likely to win the ryanair than the gold cup

    Huge Trabolgan fan, though as Grassy says have to see how they come back. Azerty never made it back :-(.

    Eurotrek @ 66/1 IF he runs is huge value imo.

    Possibly Our Vic at 12/1, no way he should be 4 points bigger than In Compliance, though it’s more a case of In Compliance being too short I think. I don;t think there’s a bet to be had on the Gold Cup.

    He’s an unlikely runner yes.

    If he runs what price will he be? 14/1?<br>What is his chance of running? 33%?<br>Current Price 66/1

    You could argue its marginal value but i’ll wait for NRNB (although VCBet give 50% of stake back if its a NR)

    Forget the Past it’s more a question of do you think In Compliance will stay 3m?  If he does then FTP won’t go in the Gold Cup and if he doesn’t connections think that In Compliance is some way better than FTP so what would his chance of winning be?
