His pulled up was because he wasn’t right , Elliot confirmed he didn’t eat up the morning of the race and in hindsight wouldn’t have run him , also he,s not built to hurdle he was bred to jump a fence …and he,s excellent at that , is I’ve said previously elliot confirmed after the last run ” he,s blowing hard and will come on for the run ” , in my eyes he,s solid and should be favourite , he,s the best value even if you played safe e.w
Lord Windermere GC , felt like the only one in the world who backed him ….was screaming him over the line , on actual performance Frankel guineas was breath tacking , watched saying he can’t keep that pace up …..yes he could
The Gold cup is wide open , I’ve played native river e.w again purely from a value point of view but it’s feeling very like the 2014 race
I backed midnight shadow today as I really thought there was a chance champ would come a croper , I can’t believe he,s still around 3-1 favourite , if he cant win a average grade 2 chase how the hell is going to win the RSA , he’s got to be the worst value bet for the festival …some more of today’s winnings will be going onto Battleoverdoyen ….quote after his grade 1 winat the weekend ….he’s,had a good blow after …a good blow , winning grade 1,s while not fully fit will do for mev
I’ve never known so many fancied horses get turned over , heyho ther s still 10 weeks to go
I can’t believe Kemboy will win a GC as he,s simply not a good enough jumper , I’m sure he will come on for the run , what did you guys think of presenting Percy ?
The question with AL boum photo is if last year’s race left a mark , when native river won a few weeks back johnson told Tizzard that he finally felt like his oldself , Tizzard remarked that’s its maybe taken him a year to get over his GC win , if you look at the stats of prev GC winners performances after there GC,s they don’t make good reading ….bar Native who had even won another race in recent times , the race is a horse destroyer … I haven’t given up on lostintranslation yet but for value e.w ….Native old friend I need you again
Each to his own but I reckon cyrname will be back down in distance , been a strange day with plenty fancied festival horses getting beat , heho onwards and upwards
From a GC point of view I’m keeping the fingers crossed that lostintranslation ok , bit annoying that nicholls wouldn’t say cyranme didn’t stay
Altior not running in Desert Orchid …I don’t believe this horse has been right this season and it’s why I’m happy to believe lostintranslation will win
Elegant escape has the class do be involved despite the wait , that Hennessey (or what every it’s bloody called now ) was a eye catcher
The way I see it Lostintranslation has the fewest questions to answer in this , we know he stays , we know he,s classy enough , I can honestly see cyrname getting ran out of the place , I’m really bothered by the form of the Altior win , I don’t think Altior ran anywhere near to form that day so out of the 2 I’ve got to remain on the side of Lostintranslation , out of the remainder I think Footpad could follow him home , the fact Mullins is sending over says enough for me , good luck all
