    Has anyone got a strong opinion of where Samcro may run in next years Festival?
    Looking to find a few early prices before he bolts up this year

    JLT if he were mine but no idea what connections will favour

    Surely between JLT and RSA though

    Purely hypothetically, at what odds would you chalk up Samcro for the Ascot Gold Cup?

    Don Cossack stayed at 2 and a half miles for the JLT from memory and this fella looks to have enough pace for 2 miles so my guess is JLT then up in trip after.

    Agree with Mike, they’ll likely go with what worked for Don Cossack, so JLT next year.

    Given that connections have made no bones about the fact they think this boy is the 2020 Gold Cup winner I’d be pretty sure that so long as his jumping is up to scratch early next season that he’ll end up in the RSA.

    The way he settled his last race over 2 miles (that was in a matter of 3-4 strides), I wouldn’t be surprised if Mr. O’Leary might want to win the Champion Hurdle with him.

    What would he have to beat next year? And you never know what might happen, if he doesn’t take to fences at all.
