Love this hoss. 3rd time lucky with my ap bet on him.
|
|
By:
Will be the best horse in the race but not an AP betting opportunity for me.
|
|
By:
Lovely horse....but you couldnt bet with any confidence he'll make it to Chelt with horses injury record.

The horse is made of balsa wood, any A/P money on it is madness.

If HF and Bino both turn up fit and well in March,we could well have the best since Istabraq,certainly possible.

By:
Binocular my arse

By:
Bino will be a different horse in March,but Peddlers Cross is now a big threat to all.

Will murder Menorah, Binoc and co.. Flying machine |

By:
Without any shadow of doubt the absolute worst favourite for the festival, possibly ever.
Crazy crazy fav imo. |

Wins CH on the snaff, what a hoss

Most noticeable was how one paced Solwhit looked one and a half lengths back. Voler La Vedette just one and three quarters back in third. Solwhit no chance in a Champion Hurdle. Hurricane Fly loved the soft ground today being a Montjeu and travelled very well on it. All of Mullins very fit today as borne out by the results. Over-reaction in price as the faster Festival ground against horses with gears up the hill is a different world to the one paced animals in todays race ... nonetheless couldnt have asked for more on his return.
|
|
By:
Thing is, faster ground and faster pace will suit him better as well.
 |
|
By:
Dont agree, think he loved the ground today but how one-paced did Solwhit look ... Menorah would have laughed at him there. Great race coming up with the main 4 protagonists all looking good.
|
|
By:
eric_morris your making out Hurricane Fly is slow? This is a horse that made Go Native look like a snail in their novice days. N Go Native made a fair few look slow last season one of them being a champion hurdle winner. :S
|
|
By:
How am I ? I said Solwhit looked very one-paced and he did. I also said HF loved the soft ground which he did. HF travelled very well but he will need to finish much faster than that on quicker ground over a shorter trip to beat Binocular, Menorah, Peddlers Cross and the like. Solwhit looked a slow old boat today.
|
|
By:
HF's neck defeat of Solwhit over just 2m on good ground in April accentuates the importance of the ground to him imo.
|
|
By:
lets be fair it looked a testing 2 and a half miles and for a horse having his first run this season against quite a few fit horses i think he did it well enough picking up a very game solwhit, pretty sure that form stands a little higher than beating bothy in the greatwood imo how slow did Menorah look there?
|

By:
Do you believe Solwhit will be in the first 6 in the Champion Hurdle?
