Not convinced Chapoturgeon likes cheltenham.....on a line through Hills of Arran is arguably up to chapoturgeon's rating from his decisive warwick win....progressive and in what looks like a weak renewal good value at 10s imo

Signing in on this project Fistful, really like thais horse. Oh so impressive in Warwick in an ok contest. Looks a hunter of real potential.

Still like MY FLORA...will be about 15LB better off with chapoturgeon, the distance is a big plus, stays farther than this, hacked up in a P2P last time beating Findlays Find 15L.....could take some stopping at cheltenham!

I always look for an up and coming hunter rather than a high class handicapper on his way down, I still think On The Fringe can improve on last year and be in the shake up

I think so, but with the proviso that there already seem to be more fancied horses this year than is usually the case, which is odd, and perhaps ironic in a year when new challengers are thin on the ground in the races for professionals.

Gets a nod in the wetherbys Profile book on the basis of it being a front runner

It was very impressive at Wariwck though I'm not sure it beat much. It's very hard to assess accurately with only one run under rules!

is the jockey any good? more Nina Carberry or Doreen Calder?
|
|
By:
She did the job nicely at Warwick but it was her first (and I think only) ride under rules. I believe she's also the trainer and owner so she won't be jocked off.

I'll have to watch a re-run at some point. Not a big follower of the PTP scene and my usual policy of just backing what Richard Burton or Derek O'Connor ride isn't possible now. Love the name though

Noted re the jockey - not the strongest part of the tip but it's a weak renewal - if she gets on well with the horse sends it out to the front - may not be too complicated a steering job...that was my thinking...as I say regarding the handicapping and OR - a line through hills of arran arguably puts him up with chapoturgeon's OR...

I'm on just because I love the name - lead all the way hopefully.

So it's Unclepuncle backing Monkerty Tunkerty in the Foxy Woxyhunters then?

Can't believe that 10s is still available...ovelooked horse compared to those ahead of it in the market imo...
