One fell, the other 8th.

I don't lay horses Duncan but the very best of luck to you of you play at that price.

OTS - most of the horses are now laid out for it now the trainers have got used to the race. Let's face it if Vendor 'works evry bit as well' as his two in the Triumph, Vendor could well have much more in hand than the others.

I've had a very small bet on Asaid e/w for a bit of interest and because I believe he is a little better than he has shown so far. In fact may pitch up for Triumph but interesting that got a third run him to him after Ireland. Decided just to leave the race alone now.

roo, if it's an absolutely bonkers price, why arent you laying? do you not like money?!

Sorry Duncan if you failed to understand but I do not lay horses....I back ones that I feel have chance to win and at a price that I feel represents value. Its a shame this is a race that I have no clue about as the attention on this horse and Vendor will make the market.

I would personally be surprised if you cannot get bigger on here closer to the event and as said previously good luck to you if you are playing or have played the horse.

This is the horse that apparently galloped with the ( deperately trying to get fit) KS this morning.

Well if it's a bonkers price and you don't know what to take it on with Roobuck, surely laying is the best way because then the rest of the field is running for you?

If it was important to me to be heavily involved in each race then yes probably. As I have said elsewhere I have a very small interest e/w in Asaid and I will leave it at that.

However what I have said is my opinion of the price of the horse in question and I'm so sorry if you feel that it is worthless if I do not lay the beast

Not at all, just an observation. Good luck with Asaid.

The French import was allotted a rating of 122 after his debut for the stable, at Newbury on New Year's Eve. "He just missed the last, landing very awkwardly, and did well to pick the other horse up," he said. "But for that, I don't think he'd have come off the bridle. I couldn't quite believe the mark the handicapper came up with, so we just thought we'd look after it for Cheltenham. He has gone up to 129 since, just standing in his stable – but I'd be very disappointed if he's not a whole lot better than that."

With the Festival imminent, King might pardonably confine himself to platitudes about growing tension and diminishing expectation. Instead, even as a pale disc of sun emerged over the hidden Wiltshire downs, King volunteered an unequivocal insight – not so much on the relative merits of his two JCB Triumph Hurdle candidates, Grumeti and Balder Succes, as on the parity of another juvenile in his care.

Sorry duncan I misunderstood. It is hard to know what will happen with the price, but just think that a couple of Irish horses will have been laid out and will be gambled. Whether it will ever be a lay-back opportunity I wouldn't like to say.

FWIW I genuinely think he has been bought to go chasing and they have thought that as he has this mark, go FW and then chasing next year.
