Agreed. Best jumper and classiest horse in the race. Hopefully she will not get too fizzy at the festival and it will be plain sailing.

No chance. Sorry boys.

Yabba dabba dooooooooooooooooo

Oh dear me! Where has this come from!? One notable piece of form, when going well before a fall at Kempton! Seriously!

will barry get off grandouet cant see it myself
|
|
By:
Dont think Henderson will run it in the Triumph...certainly didnt seem to want that option after it won last time.
|
|
By:
he sed already in his rp column amedia defo runs in the truimph
|
|
By:
Could run in the Gold Cup for all the chance she's got!
|
|
By:
u layed her at 50s then
|
|
By:
Sadly the funds to lay at those odds are not at my disposal, however I wouldn't back her at 5 times that price!
It's notoriously one of the roughest races at the Festival, I can't understand where this new found confidence from everyone has materialised from!? For me, Local Hero has all the attributes needed to claim the race. |

By:
are u fishing boy
local hero was just tailed off at haydock |
|
By:
confused.com here.....did i read A Media Luz def goes for the triumph?
|
|
By:
Hendo says so yes.

haha shows how much 'dwm767' knows tailed off today |
|
By:
Haha, so your strongest form lines are going to be Haydock on unbelievably heavy ground are they!? Interesting...if it was that simple (or as simple as you two), this game would be easy!
Regardless of what he ran today, I still believe he has the attributes to win a Triumph! Looks a type suited to Cheltenham, he's hard as nails, and McCoy will be back on top to make strong use of that! I'm not saying he's a cert, im saying he's got all the attributes, unlike some power-puff French import who needs very little to rile her up! |

ap mcoy will ride grandouet as barry g is riding media luz, and your form line is local hero beating franklino whos a waste of time, and then beat third intention who turned up and turned the tables today by 9 lengths, we have seen the best of local hero hes not an improver, a media luz has improved every time shes hit a racetrack, something with great scope for improvement wins triumph hurdles,
|

By:
j2010....spot on....this will go to an improver through the season...always does!
|
|
By:
Will be interesting to see if Gradouet runs in the adonis on saturday at kempton...will probably be a deciding piece of the henderson jigsaw?
|
|
By:
i heard hes got CELTUS lined up for that owned by simon munir
|
|
By:
Thanks Alvardo...maybe Grandouet goes to the triumph without another run if that's the case. I still think it's the form horse to beat...a switch by Barry however would be fairly damning as the trainer knows what it is to win the race...have folowd him on Alone Success and katarino over the years...

By:
pricewise :)
|
|
By:
pricewise has been a curse for henderson horses spirit river/minella class
|

By:
didnt grandouet, media luz and tartan di sarti all run behind sam winner in same race?
and didnt barry choose to ride tartan??? which means they thought he was best of the three on work at home? and he turns out to be rubbish ....so grandouet and media cant be superstars??? barry will ride hendo 1st choice ...not mccoy ..so whoever barry rides will have best chance in race altho i still feel hendo wont win race this year not sure what will win tho .... doesnt look like a superstar in race so could be a big priced winner this year ...altho prob be about 12 horses all around 10/1 price on the day |
|
By:
solid race so wide open grandouet/sam winner are good but i feel there vunerable to a relli good one i was always of the belif that we hadent seen the truim ph hurdle winner yet even as late as early feb thats why i backed moose moran.but i must say i was very taken with zarkander cos to me he quickend twice once off the turn to go past them and then again to hold of molotof who looked like he had him going to the last and the betting told u on sat that zarkander would improve loads i think hes the one
|
|
By:
i knew something didnt look right when i was writing ....just figured it out ... titan not tartan!!! ;-P
|
|
By:
AML ran behind sam winner in a different race monkey.
|
|
By:
cheers hardy, my internet goin bit slow at mo and didnt want to log onto racing post website to check facts which i should have! :-S
|
|
By:
Alvarado - do you have any idea how NJ Henderson would rate Molotof compared to Grandouet - this would give us an idea as to how Zarkander should be rated against the favourite?
|
|
By:
I cant wait for this Bridle Ponce to get to Cheltenham,been prancing around getting lumps of weight from everything, and been getting the run of the race.
Cheltenham will find this one out "Big Time"and i will be laying till the cows come home. |
|
By:
Acey - you mean AML?
|
|
By:
Yes AML.
|
|
By:
Looks an open race to me, and whlist I think she is very classy, and will receive weight, i'd not be certain she'll get up the hill as she will almost certianly run free. BJG on Grandouet I guess too.
|
|
By:
AML + Ear Plugs surely??

Hope so Carver - been a bit of a journey for my Ante Post 20/1 placed in November lol!!
 |
|
By:
yeah good point carver hendersons might have came away very pleased from that he does seem to be relli bullish about grandouet
|
|
By:
What do we reckon now? FW or Triumph? Been topping up on NRNB for the Triumph but think the handicapper's given her a chance in the FW with some overly high ratings for other horses.
