MR WATSON CORAL CUP

Why step up in trip, 2 miles looked ideal? Also looks good for a viable handicap mark in the County.

Agree, will b County surely

I hope the handicapper gets a hold of him

McCoy said afterwards that when he gave him a smack the horse did n't like it one bit (quel surprise!) and although he won 4 lengths it would have been 2.5 lengths if he'd hit him again - was n't overly enamoured with the horses attitude, most animated I've seen him in a post race interview for a while.

Probably an indication that they think a lot of the horses potential as was the fact that he got down to 10st 3lb for the last race of the day to ride him.

That after a power packed display on At Fishers Cross - bloke's a freak, don't know how he does it.

McCoy was animated because the money was landed. It was almost embarrassing to see a usually sour faced man ramble on like a drunk because they landed a couple.

Great point Graeme. I saw Mccoy in my local independent this morning. He had £20 on Mr Watson at 5/1.

Either that's a lie or you're making a serious allegation which you should raise with the BHA.

mr eboue do you honestly think that a champion jockey would walk into a betting shop and back a horse,just think it will be suited by a step up in trip and good groud would bring out more improvement !

I think you'll find Mr E.'s is a tongue in cheek response to the previous post.

Attempted tounge in cheek. I don't reccommend anyone taking Mr Eboues advice and trying to get 20 quid on a race that was run the day before. 

I think the idea is that AP was collecting his winnings Graeme - clearly not a concept you're familiar with

It certainly isn't Reaseheath. Bookie shops are for chavs, hill billys, and tough old woman who can fight like ****. I haven't set foot in one for years.

Anyone who took my post seriously needs to lighten up!

Mr watson could be a good thing in the coral cup , and about 20 others stop guessing ffs

i had the good fortune to go to Jackdaws and witness the beast trying to bite all and sundry
only the head lad rides it at home. He is a nutcase and how his nature with stand up to the very different atmosphere of the festival is a point to at least consider.
Clearly well thought of but an other point (and i know this isn't the motive for purchase) how can he possibly win his purchase price back?

must admit stepping up in trip wouldnt be the first thing on my mind...i'll be looking elsewhere

conditor,that stable are as good as any of beating the handicapper,probably got another stone up its sleave,i know its a hard race but stepped up in trip on good ground will bring alot more improvement !
