King George 2021

[Venture to Cognac]

Market up….

It’s far enough out, but this seasons winner Frodon, looks a fair price at 16’s, but they might not get things their own way this time.

While it’s impossible to predict how Covid will affect things this year, Asterion Forlonges makes plenty of appeal at the same price.

The one who isn’t quoted is recent Kempton winner Royal Pagaille, and I’d be very interested in him, to the extent that I might just look for a price. He’s the one I’d be most interested in betting right now.

I’ve not 100% given up on Master Tommytucker, and we should know more after Saturday.

Early Shortlist
Asterion Forlonges 16’s
Frodon 16’s
Royal Pagaille N/Q
Master Tommytucker 40’s

I tipped Asterion for this in March, in one of the other threads.

Edit: it was in the Cheltenham 2021 bets thread.

20s available with Bet365- I’m on.

[Venture to Cognac]

Not great yesterday G, but I’m not out put off too much with him.

Master Tommytucker added now to the market at 40’s, that certainly appeals.

I’ll probably get Royal Pagaille added myself this week if I can, see what I get offered.

Personally I’d love to see mcfabulous go here as a novice

But he’ll likely be in the kauto star

[Venture to Cognac]

FF, next year hopefully for Fab. This is definitely his race at some point.

[FinalFurlong91]

I honestly think hed win this year

One of my favourite horses around at the momemt

[Mike007]

Clan Des Obeaux 16-1. Just need to leave the Betfair Chase out this time.

[Mike007]

Got 18-1 CDO with price boost. Will still only be 9, very few Irish horses turning up as usual, Nicholls learning his lesson re the Betfair (hopefully). Will be 6-1 or shorter on the day I reckon.

[Lemons68]

16-1 is a great price for CDO, I’ve had an early bet myself.

[Venture to Cognac]

Just took the 50’s on Royal Pagaille, happy with that, and hopefully he can continue to progress.

Royal Pagaille 50’s

[He Didnt Like Ground]

Wonder where they will go at Cheltenham , he did that really well Inc the jumping

[waroftheroses]

He Didn’t Like Ground, it looks like Gold Cup for him now. I thought he jumped much much better today.

I’m not going to have an early bet on him here, but I think that I will stay loyal with Waiting Patiently nearer the time. I bet him at 25-1 this year, and I think that they’ll be on a mission to go one better.

I agree with Mike and Lemons though, and I think the 16-1 on Clan Des Obeaux is worth taking early.

[Venture to Cognac]

Looking at this, I just wonder if the switch to De Bromhead might make this a more realistic proposition for Envoi Allen. This race looks perfect for him, and De Bromhead was happy to send Monalee here before his setback.

The 12’s looks tempting on that basis, and I’ve taken that.

I’ve already added Dashel Drasher at 50’s, as it looks a realistic target for him too, for all he’d have to prove himself again beforehand.

Dashel Drasher 50’s
Envoi Allen 12’s (cashed out, small loss)
Royal Pagaille 50’s

[FinalFurlong91]

A plus tard as 2nd fav?

Are the bookies actually serious with that one, hes a stone worse going right handed

[Danny_TLDR]

I really like this angle. With Elliott we could already plot his maiden open company season from Down Royal onwards but now it’s back to the drawing board.

I hope that’s the case Danny, thought it worth chancing anyway.

[He Didnt Like Ground]

Listening to Henry he seems quite keen to bring him over so 10,s is a fair price
