Considering Guitar Pete''s solid form this season and the Hussars win over this fella at Chelts im tempted to ignore his last run and take a decent price would be interested in any opinion

I would be interested in this horse, but am concerned that he's been off the track since mid December. Maybe he'll run in the Adonis?

Definitely on my radar for the same reason moat, although Dessie thinks Guitar Pete has improved immeasurably since then... and the lack of a run and the form of NJH's string would worry me.

But clearly a decent ew poke at fancy prices.

After his win at Cheltenham in November (thumping Guitar Pete) he said when interviewed in the parade ring afterwards that he was better on better ground, he'd been on the go a while (on the flat in Ireland as well as hurdling with NJH)  and that he would 'probably be put away until next year'.

I was suprised therefore when he ran at Doncaster and that might have been a case of going to the well once too often.

A player at Cheltenham then, given the above and his course form.

Well hes a nice price,so worth a shout imo.
The formline with Guitar Pete is good,and should better ground be around in March,and he turns up hes probably gonna be backed into shorter odds.If you want to back him id do it now.maybe with nrfb?

NRNB is defo the way to go i think if it turns up im gonna back it anyway and could not see it any bigger if it does so a no brainer for me

Depends how greedy you are! I decided 25-1 was worth the risk over 16-1 NRFB. Even if Baldfred only alloweed me a whopping £16 ew Sad

Likely to be pricewised on the day if he is a runner. But maybe that extra run at Donny has been to his detriment?

I do think hes one that is priced bigger than he should be.
Pretty sure hes better than that last run,and would be inclined to draw a line through that.Certainly the run GP put in other day suggests you could.
Have him and Guitar Pete nrfb,so hoping that form proves as good as it looks.

Rather have Fox Norton at 20/1 than RIH myself.
