What was once one of the highlights of the season is now just an ordinary decent handicap, however the winner still needs to be picked, so it’s All In You at 6s for me.
All In You and Milldam for me. Both proven on the ground and that can make all the difference in those conditions.
WD Ruby and VF, the weight was nothing to him. WD DBR with those big ews too, and VtC.
Cobden rode him like he didn’t give two fecks about anything else in the race. They knew what they had today.
Some performance under that weight.
WD winners.
Well done, Ruby and VF. 👍
Think we’ve just seen the 2027 Arkle winner there. That was some performance under top weight, albeit off just 138; you rarely see top handicap hurdles won in that fashion – it was a total demolition job.
“Think we’ve just seen the 2027 Arkle winner there.”
Big statement there.
Personally i dont trust the form completely on ground like that, he won rated in the 130s and some of his rivals wanted better ground including the Twiston Davies horse so was the margin of victory exaggerated? Nicholls said they might supplement him in the Champion Hurdle if conditions were similar, if he was top class and speedy they wouldn’t worry about ground conditions and just say yes without hesitation. That doesn’t mean to say he can’t improve though next season but that looked like a staying perfornance than a speedy 2 mile performance to me. Those are my thoughts today, time will tell as to how he progresses and best trip.Thank you all. It was nice to see Mr. Nicholls still being able to have a big Saturday winner.
Well done to the EW players.“Big statement there.”
Sorry – I’ll stick to backing short-priced favourites each-way at imaginary prices in future.
WD winners.
Had him in a short-priced double, but the 1st horse in my bet didnt win.Chucked a few bob at him for the CH NRNB. 25s with bet365.
