Must admit i`ve never been tempted to do the “Tote 10“……….. until late last night when i was sitting by the computer with RP open and my credit card staring me in the face,i`ve done several lines as i can`t stand losing:biggrin:
Used has bankers:-
KICKING KING :- Although i was far from impressed with his return (Could be an opt out come January,however, King George looks at his mercy)
OLLIE MAGERN:- Could be the new king of Cheltenham although im not overly keen on his rider.
CELTIC SON:- Best round of jumping ive seen from a novice on his debut in past 5 years.
INGLIS DREVER:- This for me is the 100%er.
OUR VIC:- Don`t need to be a genius to see that he stands out at these weights for the Paddy Power and has he seems to like Cheltenham he could follow up at the festival.
Supporting the biggies:-
BRAVE INCA as he`s the one i would want to be on if Champion was run tommorrow,however,predicting the champion looks a major task at this stage!!
DE SOTO should have won champion bumper,will be wiser this time round and Paul Webber my fav trainer;)
TIDOUR Improved through novice year,Cheltenham bound with a bit of luck.
THE MARKET MAN Looks a fair way ahead of the h`capper and could chalk up a sequence,downside is the h`cappers likely reaction!!
MY WAY DE SOLZEN real chaser in the making and likely to have a good novice season,bigger tracks should suit this strong galloper.
OVER THE CREEK probably overhyped but we have a get out clause come January:biggrin:
MONETS GARDEN:- Change in system will stop him sitting up north whilst cleaning up,however,he`s the one who could mix it with the southern boys and Irish.
RACING DEMON downside is stables horses are usually wrapped in cotton wool,however,hard not to be taken with chase debut.
FUNDAMENTALIST Wish he was a year older has he would probably me idea of Grand national winner,2nd seasons are notoriously hard but this chap looks top drawer!!
MOSCOW FLYER Guess we should stick with him until we see signs of deteriation.
No Nicholls horse although i like the way he places his charges,no JJ because i avoid him like i avoid eating chickens in Croatia,should probably have a few more Irish horses in the perm although the one i don`t like is WAR OF ATTRITION……can`t jump!!
Probably more chance of winning the lottery but what the hell……..good luck!!
<br>
Nice to see we agree on a few Tony.
My Bankers are:
Ashley Brook (love him!)<br>Asian Maze (better than Solerina)<br>Celtic Son (can take in handicaps as well as novice route)<br>Inglis Drever <br>Iris’s Gift (Hennessy, right Jonjo?)<br>Kicking King<br>Our Vic (not sure about Cheltenham, but could be a King Georger type)<br>War Of Attrition (too many good races for him)
and I’ve permed any 2 of these 4:
Brave Inca<br>Harchibald<br>Mighty Man (like this one a lot)<br>Lacdoudal
Regret not adding Red Devil Robert to my permed 4, but what can you do?
I went with
Moscow Flyer<br>Kicking King<br>Inglis Drever<br>Monkerhostin<br>Justified<br>Celtic Son<br>Brave Inca<br>Ollie Magern<br>Power Elite<br>Travino (my trump card)
Rory,
Yes where to stop!!,plenty of nice prospects in the list,luck needed,lets hope its a good season.
all the best with all your lists
Good luck to everyone.
I was fortunate enough to come joint 1st in the 2004 jumps ten to follow, and it really is an amazing experience.
I only did 2 lists, so you do not necessarily have to break the bank, and, although I thought I knew a fair bit about racing, since coming on this forum I realise that I am a complete amateur compared to some of you guys (and girls).
So, with a bit of luck (a lot of luck) and the skill people regularly show on here, I predict that this years winner will come from this forum ;)
