Struck my first festival bet today.
Dynaste to win the RSA. The highest rated hurdler going nov chasing this season. Got to have a little at double figure price. Similar profile to Grand Crus and he started a 6/5 shot for this years race. Will surely win a few easy nov races then step up for the feltham.

thats my only bet so far too
|
|
By:
A lot can happen between now and March obviously but this years RSA could be the best ever renewal
|
|
By:
My bet is that a plodder who goes on to do little or nothing will win the RSA.
I like my trends. |
|
By:
^like Denman and Albertas Run?
 |
|
By:
still like bostob bob for this myself
|

By:
Champagne Fever could be an interesting one if it goes well over fences, gutsy in the bumper.

After For Non Stop bolted up on Saturday I had a little poke at Champion Court for the Gold Cup. I know it's not really the plan, but it could be that the Jewson is the best form on offer for the second season staying chasers, which is hardly original with SDC fav for the race.
My feeling is that the last 2 Gold Cups have been below par renewals, so once again I expect the winner to be having his first run in the race and it looks a pretty open affair. This fella loves it round HQ and with Finians and a few other crack 2 milers likely to take in the Ryanair, connections of any horse likely to get three miles+ might fancy a shot at the big one, as it could conceivably be the 'weaker' race. At triple figures, I just had to. |

By:
Cannot believe the QM winner will line up in the Ryanair.Think if he dont prove to stay 3m he will end up back in the QM again.If he stays then he will be in Gold Cup.

By:
how anyone could back a runner in the RSA before seeing it jump astonishes me.
|
|
By:
have had a few early ones this year, zarkandar champion hurdle 14s ,finians rainbow gold cup 80s ,sunnyhill boy gold cup 330 on here ! and am sorting out some mad crazy price festival multiples in the shops in the next few days.good luck to all who play !
|

By:
also al ferof gold cup and sanctuaire champion chase
|

howdi. if dynaste jumps ok on its debut it will no doubt win comfortably then will be single figures for the RSA chase. Thats how i see it but i am a mug punter
 |
|
By:
Fid Dynaste was put up on the Timeform radio preview - you know the one H, you posted the link! - so I certainly wouldn't put you off. AS for being a mug, well aren't we all?
|
|
By:
2 examples gents
get me out of here celestial halo couldnt jump for toffee be careful H |
|
By:
Captain Chris cant jump either but won an Arkle ( jumped ok that day )
|
|
By:
Isnt that the joy of antepost punting though Howdi? If you wait until they run, and they show themselves to be excellent jumpers, the price shortens.
I'd always take a few more risks to get a few extra points tbh. |
|
By:
not for me ccm i wanna see them jump first but im old fashioned
 |
|
By:
has get me out of here jumped a fence?
|
|
By:
Not in public. Jonjo has said that he schooled very well when asked though - not sure if Howdi knows something we don't? As I understand it, they are making up their mind whether to campaign him in the Championship hurdle races or to send him novice chasing because of his high mark.
|
|
By:
schooled terribly. (nap)
|
|
By:
scource please
|
|
By:
Dynaste will be more of a jewson horse, Pipe has already said he isn't slow and 2m4 will be his trip, same applies to Fingal Bay but both will probably run in the Feltham.
|

By:
jp mcmanus said it
|
|
By:
must be true then
|
|
By:
 |
|
By:
well he owns it fidway so I would suggest he knows better than us. (smarty pants remark_)
|
|
By:
jp mcmanus said it
where/when?? |
|
By:
2 years ago - they abandoned the jumping campaign on the back of it. I also recall Jonjo saying he wasn't a natural on Racing Uk.

By:
okey doke,cheers

By:
Hidden Cyclone - Gold Cup (50/1)
|
|
By:
Montbazon - Champion Hurdle 40/1.
Though since I placed that bet the trainer has said he wont be out until second half of season.  |
|
By:
Cracking introduction tomorrow. Getting weight from Fingal's, the Pipe team will surely be disappointed if they get beat?
|
|
By:
They must think very highly of him (or have egos the size of the planet) to have entered him in the Betfair.
|
|
By:
Delighted with that. Jumped and travelled very well indeed. Quicked nicely too. Feltham next?
|
|
By:
did it well today jumped and travelled well and the feltham should be on the agenda ,the betfair entry was a huge positive for his chance today ,good luck with it .
|
|
By:
I hope he runs in the RSA for you willie,showed a lot of speed in a slowly run race,could very well end up in the jewson,but best of luck.
|
|
By:
I really hope he runs in the RSA too. Mainly so I can lay him at something like 6/4 though
 |
|
By:
jumps like a dream there you go lads
 |
|
By:
Very nice debut. 50-50 for the RSA/Jewson though imo. 6/1 not aqn attractive price for the RSA at this point!
