btw i hope they run WAF without Blinkers,He seems to run better without them

By:
OTS, if LR and KS run to form, then they win, but that would mean WAF can run 5th and still collect and 3rd is a bumper pay day.
It's my biggest bet of the meeting. |

You'll know youre faith early enough shockster,if he's travelling and jumping okish he'll have a great chance,He's probably one of the best Travellers in the race when he's in the mood,He's a horse that needs a certain type of jockey,if i were Sir Alex id be on the phone to Carberry or timmy murphy,they might be able to kid him around better than Jacob

I agree with you Shock, I've got WAF and Weird Al at 20's and 11's in the without market, if Kauto runs then it's a good chance you're backing first 5 a place. I cant see Weird Al out of the 5 and WAF could easily pick a few off in the last furlong or so.

By:
LR, KS, BP, GC, Medermit
that could be the first 5 easily plus Diamond Harry and some rags wish you luck |
|
By:
Diamond Harry has to be one of the most over rated beasts to grace a race course,Never won a Grade 1 Chase in umpteen attempts yet is almost always fancied to win one
|
|
By:
personally I couldn't have Medermit, Grands Crus hopefully won't run and I'm just not a Diamond Harry fan especially at Cheltenham. But that's just my opinion and I have been wrong more times than i'd like to admit.
|
|
By:
oh I agree never liked him myself but his Hennessey form would put him somewhere in the top 5 - if he were to produce it
|

By:
Judo, WAF might run a stinker and I'll have done my brass, but I doubt there are better 16/1 shots at present. I would say he should be 6/1 in W/O market.
|
|
By:
judo he won that with no weight on his back mate,and a few injuries have blighted his career thus far,admirable horse that falls short of top class,having said that,wouldnt be impossible to see him running into a place,
i think Grands Crus will run in the GC but wont be winning it imo,Cant see him seeing it out,He Barely see's out his races over 3 miles as it is |
|
By:
you can argue it always round and WAF may well get in the top 5 and fair play if he does
just, as I said, not one for me at any price |
|
By:
He has the course, distance and race form in the book. Simple as that. It's all about opinions of course but 16-1 about a rogue running like a rogue and placing without the top two is massive in my eyes.
|
|
By:
Good luck to all who got 16/1. Now 12/1 best price.

I have been backing WAF and Carruthers for this since before xmas. WAF was beaten a nose last term by Kauto. People seem to think that Kauto can run a bigger race that he did last season which,personnally I think is bollox. I have never seen the GC as Kautos
race but he surprised me at how well he ran last year,still mixing it with Denman going to the last. If he does repeat that run he still aint going to beat Long Run,barring accidents. He stopped dead over the last last year and I think his really vunerable to all sorts of rags running on up the hill If you take LR out the race i wouldnt be surprised if anyone of half a dozen won it! One more thing. In the event of Kauto not making it, would Ruby ride WAF? |

By:
in that case i'd expect Ruby to ride Quel Esprit
