Fist

if you are correct and he was a good in the champion hurdle then Silent Oscar who beat him 8 lengths 5 weeks later must be some animal…..puts him 5 lenths in front of Sublimity

I think you may find Callow Lakes position relative to HE, Harchi and Iktitaf and Macs Joy position relative to that of HE, Harchi and Iktitaf makes that particular race very suspect indeed and if you had any real idea how to assess performances you’d know this

Charlie don’t throw form at me that’s not worth a pinch of salt just sow me at which point in the CH did HE even look half the horse he was the year bef

There’s just no point in me repeating myself – talk about banging your head against a brick wall

[Charlie D]

Hardy Eustace was not gone last year and his finishing position relative to Brave Inca, Afsoun and their positions relative to that of Kawingo show you this

So does his AIG win, so does his Ascot Hurdle win, so does his 2nd in International

[Charlie D]

Go LOOK at the dam horse and compare his runnings in his last two CH FFS HE he was gone, finished khaput out on his ass

Horses that use too much energy early on in a race usually do end up gone, khaput by the end of the race

[Charlie D]

Both of my winners were odds-on.

Both were "value" bets in MY opinion and all the best with this thread reet

[Charlie D]

Not a race i’ll be betting in either.

I do find Farj’s participation in this race fascinating though and look forward to seeing how he goes on here

[Charlie D]

The more dangers there are the less likely it is you should be betting each-way, not the other way around.

.

Why Glenn???

[Charlie D]

Although not as good as some Smithy, I do believe that race would be deemed a decent each way thieving race in some quarters

[Charlie D]

I wouldn’t give up on Etched, as i stated earlier i thought he ran ok under circumstances and by my reckoning it was only a few lengths below his Nashua Stakes romp.

When you consider it was his first run since Oct, he was a tad keen , he got checked and Frankie wasn’t hard on him after others had flown. That wasn’t a bad showing imo behind two horses that were race fit and a horse who is very highly regarded by the SA Maestro De Kock

[Charlie D]

Perhaps we could include Fast Parade from the U.S./Canada so we can bet ew three places!

Perhaps Bob Baffert could convince Midnight Lute’s owners to make it a dead 8

[Charlie D]

Probably missing a couple, but 6f on decent ground

Sacred Kingdom
Absolute Champion
Takeover Target
Gold Edition
Miss Andretti
Apache Cat
Sahkees Secret

YES please

[Charlie D]

It would be great if both of them were to turn up at Royal Ascot this year.

Certainly would Ven – mouth watering stuff

How do we rate Katchit’s performance?

RP handicappers rate it at 162

Injury scare on RP website

[Charlie D]

He’ll run his heart out, but i’ll be surprised if he places and even more surprised if he wins

[Charlie D]

There’s a decent prize in him Jeremy that is for certain, where that may be i’m not sure

A decently run race at Aintree looks ideal for him

[Charlie D]

Heart of a lion and well done to connections

A nice blow out for Blythe Knight i thought
