Fancy this horse for the WH currently 20/1 - Pipe knows what it takes to win a race like this and have been close had the might Big Bucks not been in the way. Think they have another contender and cant see this horse being out of the first 2 in the trial race tomorrow... price sure to contract.
He convincingly beat COLE HARDEN last season and really has SAPHIR DE RHEU to beat but he is a iffy proposition really and connections hoping to do a Big Bucks with him - but not so convinced yet...
There is a good yardstick in REVE De sivola - so that will give us an idea of whether they are upto that class
but for me UN TEMPS PUR TOUT may not have the fitness but will have the improvement come March
Good Luck

Fully agree with the above and backed him for it at the start of the week when i also backed him for tomorrows race at 7s and then again at 6s with 3 places. I get the feeling that the Pipe team fancy him tomorrow given that on Tues 80% of all that was traded on tomorrows race was on UTPT at around the 6.2 - 6.6 area. By Thursday morning that was down to approx 45% but it was 3.85 - 4.3 then.
20's could look pretty huge for the WH after tomorrow. Even if he finishes a close 2nd he will contract in price. |

Should be a big player tomorrow but I've backed Cole Harden in the World Hurdle. I think the Ascot form was a red herring as Cole hated going that way round. At least that's what I'm hoping...

guess we will find out if he stays tomorrow,if nothing else.

Him, Smad Place and Saphir du Rheu are putting their festival credentials on the line more than most, as all three are prominent enough for their festival targets, but are all getting weight tomorrow.
A big run is needed by all three to enhace their claims imo |

i think saphir du rheu is one of the best value lays in a while at 2/1 or less. think people are thinking big bucks mark 2. his hurdle form is suspect for me (think he would have been comfortably beaten by whisper had whisper not fluffed the last).
woeful price |

this cleeve has cut up quite badly really...un temp has his ground and a good chance getting weight tomorrow...personally i just want to see him jump well, something he hasn't in the past if he does he could be anything but for me not a bet for the world hurdle until he proves he is up to it, he has his ground tomorrow...
saphir du rheu also has questions to answer and i'm just not sure about him... i'd say he won't be the next big bucks but like un temp has no excuses getting weight from the reliable top 2 in the weights it is a weak race for the money |

i will add - i see no reason to spray the forum with bets everyone knows he is 20/1 and can be discussed on the world hurdle thread...put it on there and we will give you all the praise you deserve when he romps up the running
ben linfoot put him up the other day on the sporting life as well GL |

take your point HC - but to be fair dont post many Chelt selections maybe handful of strong fancies... but if you fancy a horse and if people following it... nice to see it in a single thread to keep track... etc
