Surely Astracad Isn't Going To Run In The Arkle?

long absence, maybe think he needs a prep run for Friday?   


Or he is just winding up the missus...

Nigel has been known to tilt at a few windmills in the past,so wouldnt put it past him

the interesting thing about this horse imo is that it's very unTwister-like to keep one back to preserve the hcp mark...given how badly Arkle has cut up, tho, prudent to keep him engaged in case SS trods on a stone etc sunday morning!

Prize money down to 6th isn't there?

Astracad is married?

Hope he runs,just had a couple of quid on here at 500 and something!!
Improver.

Bud next time you fancy throwing a couple of quid away give it to charity

Maybe he will do a "Sound Revielle" and take in both races

I like the horse,thought he ran well lto against seasoned handicappers,bit like SS!!

Only joking

down to 310 now!!
telling you,this is a dark horse chaps.

Twister could run it in both....sort of thing he'd do

Sam Twiston Davies was on ATR yesterday talking about Astracads chance in The Grand Annual- there was no mention of The Arkle. His dad also said that he's his best chance of a winner all week in The GA.

trying to put us away i reckon

before we totally rule it out I remember Our Arnmageddon finishing nowhere in the Arkle and coming back two days later to win the Cathcart

Already mentioned Sound Reveille - in front when blundered weakened quickly and pulled up in Klairon Davis's Arkle, won Grand Annual 2 days later.
