Does anyone know of the plans for this won?
He impressed me a lot at Southwell the other day, effortlessly scooting through two horses to really stride out and accelerate on the run-in.
Trouble is, Nicky Henderson has such an embarassment of riches in the novice hurdle department that it's hard to know where Bear's Affair is in the pecking order. His bumper form looks excellent though.

looked good dident he bumper form was excellent too
trouble is as u say hes got so many novice hurdlers to chose from Minella Class Spirit Son Sprinter Sacre Kid Cassidy Problema Tic Bobs Worth Chablais Prince Of Pirates Cavite Beta Mossley State Benefit and bears affair |

By:
Yeah exactly. I had him added to the Supreme Novices's market just out of curiosity at his price and last I looked, the 65's had me tempted. Just wish I knew what his plans were.

Very impressive as you say to go between horses and picked up very well when an inch of rein was let out. Bumper form solid (champion court running again this weekend). Even tho NJH has an abundance of horses this has to be right up there and i think one more run in Feb then on to Supreme (hopefully).

We get a guide to the form of his last win in a minute with Basford Bob up against Cavite Beta and King Of The Night at Donny.

Ran well enough in 2nd.

cavite beta good hurdler, missing out 6 (i think) hurdles played a big part for me, a farce

BIffa - stop looking for value and just back Cue Card
 |
|
By:
why would he want to back cue card at 5-2 whenwe know how good he is no scope for improvment a genuine 150 horse who knows what most on the list i put up could be for all we know BA could be 190 horse
|
|
By:
agree paul cavite beta was majorly inconvienced by them only jumping 2 hurdles hes a 3m point winner
|
|
By:
190
|
|
By:
Cue Card has "no scope for improvement"...what a bizarre statement. I'll bear in mind that a horse's ability tops out after 5 runs then
|
|
By:
im not saying BA will e 190 im just saying nobody knows do they horses who are unbeaten could be anything
we know were we stand with cue card he was beaten fair and square last time hence he is exposed as a genuine 150-155 horses now that may be good enough to win a supreme or most probably wont be who knows |
|
By:
Alvarado - i think its more likely his price will go to 190 - he is currently 150 - terrible drift. Any news?
|
|
By:
Ignoring the fact that you're retarded enough to think a horse is exposed after 5 runs, a rating of 150-155 is easily a Supreme winning rating when you look at the previous recent winners- Go Native 139, Menorah 147.
|
|
By:
yeah but what are they rated now
go native 161 menorah 164 just proves he wouldnt of won the last 2 runnings u always like to think of a supreme winner to be a champion hurdle winner the following season but IF cue card wins the supreme which he may well do he cant win a champion hurdle cos he cant beat menorah hence he is exposed as being very good not top class |
|
By:
He's had 5 runs in his lifetime...He was only a few lengths behind Menorah, why is it so inconceivable to you that a 5 year old with 5 runs in his life can't improve a few lengths?!
|
|
By:
cos menorah went by him like he was a selling plater and idled and was value for 10l and menorah might not even be placed in the champion personally i think he,ll win it
|
|
By:
ffs if the highest rated horse won the champ hurdle or supreme every year then the game would be very easy. stupid argument
|
|
By:
what are u going on about
|
|
By:
can we get back to the topic. Assume not runnign as a massive price. Has NJH mentioned him?
|
|
By:
be very surprised with bobs worth being fav will he now run minella class in the suprreme
|
|
By:
Biffa I can absolutely promise you that if Bears Affair runs..... you should back Cue Card [;)]
|
|
By:
why would he want to back a horse who is exposed
