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.

By:
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 |

By:
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? |

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

By:
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 !
