He wasn't traveling as he usually does in his races and his jumping was'nt as fluent as it ussually is. He will take alot of beating if he goes for the Ryan Air.

On its own you could probably give him the benefit of the doubt for yesterday but it really does seem to happen too often to be coincidence. Paid 1.70 on the tote for the place yesterday.

Cooper probably rightly always claims he needs good ground, but when r u going to get that during september to Feb? Anway, owes me nothing, got a good plunder out of him Arkle year, & usually always is a backable ew price.[smiley:crazy]

Personally I think he gets second all the time because he lacks the pace to get involved with the speedy types. Step him up in trip, something like a fast run King George could play into his hands....

against see more business in the king george......he once won what is now the paddy power where he had to show extreme battling qualities in an all out victory against strong promise....in 23 more races from that day....he won 1 more race.
