WORLD HURDLE
Yet another dogs breakfast of a market with so many question marks. I’m a Big Bucks fan and took 4/1 about him straight after last years festival and am sticking with that and have Annie Power at 5s NRNB.
However, for the purposes of this compy, one without a question mark over his head is :
CELESTIAL HALO 20/1 GENERAL
1pt EW
He should give a decent run for my virtual money, loves the course, ran a blinder last year, shown he’s in good nick again this year, rates a cracking chance of hitting the frame.
For the world hurdle i’ll chance Salubrious e/w at 25/1,been running very well against some of the horses ahead of him in the betting and i think he could’ve beat Reve De Sivola last time out only for that awful blunder he made 2 out and he’s open to more improvement to him and doesn’t seem to be as ground dependent and won at the Festival last year.
Nicholls says he’ll get an entry and i think he’s a cracking chance of at least placing with some of the horses towards the head of the Market not certain to line up.Salubrious e/w 25/1 Bet365
Arkle: I am looking forward to this one. I will keep the faith with the dual Festival winner Champagne Fever @ 4/1
World Hurdle: I will hope Annie Power turns up here and powers to victory @ 7/2 with WH
I’m risking 1pt ew on Lyreen Legend (50’s generally) who is next engaged in the Henessey at Leopardstown over 3 miles. Hopefully will take in the Gold Cup rather than the Ryanair
Good luck Aaron……I’ll be shouting him on too
From The Racing Post
"Hughes: Lyreen Legend is my horse to follow"
Hughes expecting a big run in the Irish Hennessey so the 50’s could look good
Ante-post book in tatters after Mullins’ comments on Felix Yonger after Sundays race…
Hinterland represents the best value of the contenders – like Carlingford Lough in the 3 mile division the extra years experience is valuable, which is evident in hinterlands consistency. Proven around Cheltenham and goes on soft and good ground
Arkle
Hinterland, 1pt each way, 11/1 paddy pWorld hurdle
Fishers cross, 2 pts win, 7/1 ladbrokesThx Vtc, I’ll go 2 points win on Valdez at General 12’s then. I’m suprised Annie power isn’t in the betting for this too, she seems favourite for every other race at the festival…
Who knew zarkander was such a yardstick
Sorry for the delay
Already have AP and CF at their end of 2013 prices for the respective races, but with those prices gone now and for the point of this competition here are my efforts!
QMCC – Benefficient EW @ 10/1 Ladbrokes NRNB
Arkle – Valdez @ 12/1 Skybet
World – Rule The World EW @ 11/1 Skybet NRNBArkle – Dodging Bullets, 2 pts win (6/1 General)
World Hurdle – Zarkandar, 2 pts win (12/1 Stan James)
Lee
I think i need to post Arkle and WH bets.
Arkle – Trifolium 2pts win @ 7-1 Betvictor.
World Hurdle – Big Bucks 2pts win @ 9-4 Paddy PowerRSA Chase next isn’t it ?
All over Ballycasey antipost at 25s but I am a little worried about the lack of experience so I will have 2pts win Morning Assembly at 12s
