Agreed Mike.
Hard race to be massively enthusiastic over.
Nick R was my idea of a NHC winner. He’s fresh and clearly could be a 160 horse. The ground should should be ok to be fair, but over the trip it’s a slight question mark. The thing is he probably has such a class edge he’ll probably be able to travel round on the ground in his comfort zone.
The couple i had given chances too are weak in the market.
Hartur D’arc going from Gibney-Cromwell has already picked up a big pot for the Handicap Chase king of the moment. I wouldn’t be shocked to see him go well again. Off 137 i think he’s worth chancing.
Churchstownwarrior was another i looked at for this in the initial entries for all he’s had a nothing season, he’s a horse i’ve always liked and has a shrewd trainer. Drifting like a barge + the trainer citing ground concerns, he’s acted on it fine before but overall it’s a concern.
Favori De Champdou is also a big price, nice claimer and loves a bog. Best form right handed is a bonus.
Good Time Jonny’s trainer has mentioned heavy as a concern but if he holds his jumping together he’s also very well in. The trip should be no concern either.
So i’ve 4 to go to war with + it’ll be small stakes.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!Built by Ballymore has the makings of another top horse for Brassil. I’ll probably look daft in a year or two but i’d say he’s a G1 chaser in time. 139 isn’t bad and the ground having juice will be a big bonus.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!Finally found a race i’m semi interested in!
Queen Jane is my pick. 5 chase starts + showing herself to be pretty promising when a hd second to Brides Hill a horse i’d give a decent chance to in March. QJ looked to be staying well at Punchestown over 2m6 and her pedigree really screams at being a staying type.
I saw her at 20s slept on it and had to take 14s about her. I thought she’d be half that price. Really did.
Obviously the WPM runner is thrown in and could win this doing handstands but he has to jump and on his 3 starts over fences he hasn’t looked the most fluent. He’s very inexperienced and i wouldn’t want to be taking that price.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!If hes superior Ham shouldn’t he have beaten him …
HLDG…
FOS has won 4 of his 13 races- surely if he’s so good, he should’ve won them all? As he’s now seen as “superior”?
No, it’s not that simple as he’s progressed at a different stage of his career.
The same as the two times he’s beaten GDC, GDC has had his reasons.
Horses can have bad days HDLG, or not be at their “best”.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!yep well done winners!
Thought my saver was going to get me out of trouble but the hard to win with Aint That A Shame wins for Blackmore Tin!
Twitter: Jackh1092
Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!Tin while Blackmore probably did have the option Darragh is certainly no drawback and for me, the horse is so much more unexposed.
28 Rides this season for Henry over fences- 5 wins, 5 2nds, 5 3rds and 4 ths…some record.

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!Nice price on Dunboyne Bobby.
I’ve been very quiet on the racing for a couple of weeks with the weather and lesser racing.
One that i think potentially is better here is Shantreusse.
Has been largely disappointing over fences there’s no doubting that but some of his runs have valid excuses over too short and some of the form has worked out pretty well.
His reappearance run was over too short again and he was well put in his place by a horse appreciating a drop in trip and new yard.
I’d say 133 is very appealing in time and perhaps 3m1 on heavy will be enough to bring out his stamina.
11/1, he’d be for me.
Glengouly is a strange one, not sure what to totally make of him as a horse but interesting given WPM sends him massively up in trip. won over 2m4 over hurdles + a 3m trip mentioned for him.
Could be unexposed and might be saver worthy.Twitter: Jackh1092
Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!FF91- that horse has been entered in quite a few of the UK 2m handicap hurdles this year i noticed.

no entry for Its For Me….cashout if i was you if you can

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!Ahh, sorry agreed.
On him, he could be interesting for a NHC i think.
Im on Nick Rockett but if he’s planned to come here, he’ll probably struggle to get in a KM, so perhaps a 4miler horse…
NHC-GN route..

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!lOl GAG, stupidly didn’t reply to this. I’ll be honest i wouldn’t rule it out. He was running a cracker in the KG. UR yes but he was in the process of running to a better level than Gerri was IMO.
@HDLG
“He will go straight to Cheltenham. It worked brilliantly last year and it’s strange to think the Gold Cup will be sort of a warm-up to the Grand National.“He was great in the Betfair Chase and was close at the finish; he’s in great form and seems better than ever.”
Most recent on your fancy

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!3-1 about a 1/2 shot alright, rule 4 was to come, but beating markets about short ones and getting beat always feels a lot worse…..why i hate backing shorter!
Wd Winners Classic Getaway was cream crackered!Twitter: Jackh1092
Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!Classic Getaway ran the last day on yielding so he’s a “maybe” but he’s fragile too so any bets for March would come with a warning. Nevermind the fact he needs to step up still. Is he really one for 3m2 around Cheltenham? Not sure, but he’s a fair enough price for it.
He’ll shorten if he wins this well, even though it’s miles away from Grade 1 GC form.
