Thsnks though I only actually got 14s, he was 33s before final decs and I thought ah sure it’ll hold, nothing I back ever shortens…
But pleased with the win. He’s a good stayer with a light weight, just glad he stayed up!!
Is Happy Diva OK?Well done Grass, any price is a good price when they win
Saint Sonnet was disappointing but Kauto Riko charged up the hill for place money at 66/1. Was outpaced early so he must be worth another go at 3 miles.
Just saw Kauto Riko on the replay TYT, monster ew and he came flying up the hill.
My one to watch is Siruh du Lac, he had a whale of a time and jumped brilliantly loose, will definitely back him in March.Guys where would you go next with Kauto ….surely screaming for a proper test

Just looked back at the form. His second in the Peterborough was his first run in a tongue tie and today was first after wind surgery. I think I’d mind his wind carefully over the winter and try to pick decent ground, then aim him at the Topham.
Yeah i’d be careful not to overdo it with him as his best form is when he’s a fresh horse. I’d give him another run in a similar race to today before Christmas, something like the Caspian Caviar Gold Cup, then freshen him up for a punt at the Ultima come March.
Hmm I suppose so. And his siblings put up their best performaces with plenty of dig though the French describe everything as vsoft it seems. I dunno, he might like soft but it might not like him…
Interesting anyhow.Its a shame for the contest that Siruh Du Lac fell at the first, from there the winner has been able to dictate his own terms on the front end and hasn’t had as much pressure as might have been expected on his jumping, over fences they have not been coming back today from the front. Not wanting to detract from him too much and well done anyone who backed him but I suspect he’ll go off close to favourite for the Caspian Caviar, I’d be avoiding him he’s very hard fit today having his fourth run since August and I think that coupled with the easy lead he got could and the inevitable surge up the weights will find him out if he goes there. The second is a standing dish in these sort of races and without wanting to be too harsh on him is one who’s attitude and will to get up that hill has to come under scrutiny now, he’s clearly handicapped to win one of these but I wouldn’t bank on him doing it anytime soon.
Well done Greenasgrass! Nice price
Happy with Kauto Riko as well. Mister Fisher was disappointing, ground too soft? I also thought that Kauto Riko was done, but he came storming up the hill.
Is it just me or does Mr Fisher look like a horse that prefers smaller fields ? , not convinced he likes to be in a hussle , I wouldn’t be to hard on any horse in the race to be honest , a right proper slog today
