I agree sonko - surely the croooks will switch him back to this at the last minute - once they're all on

Gigginstown want to win graded races, not land gambles.
|
|
By:
This is a bizarre decision. Would have won the 4 miler, but not good enough for the RSA.
|
|
By:
Easily good enough for the rsa on good ground.
|

By:
Based on what? The Albert Bartlett? He just outstayed everything. Surely that race suggested the further they go the better he'll be.
|
|
By:
Why are you telling me he wants further ?
why cant he outstay everything again ? (on decent ground) I have not backed him but he is a typical irish that improves pounds if not a stone for better ground. |
|
By:
I don't think he is likely to win (or place in) the RSA because I don't believe he jumps well enough. The 4 miler would be a slower pace so less pressure on that and there would have to be little doubt about him getting the trip imo.

By:
I agree he has not jumped well in ireland this season.

6 year olds have a terrible record in the NH chase - one win since 1989. I was hoping he would run so they would drift Sego and Cause of Causes....

What are the french bred 6yo stats against other 6yo?
|
|
By:
I've got to say that I find this a very strange choice to make.
Take away the fact that he's a french bred 6yr old (who do have a horrific record in this) but he was by far the most likely winner of the 4 miler. I get that he's the reigning AB champ, but it was a piss poor renewal. Same with TUM. Don't see him as a 2m horse at all. This smacks of wanting a horse in every race and wanting the better ones in the perceived better races, rather than the race best suited to the horse |

By:
This mean Wounded Warrior will go for the 4 miler?
|
|
By:
Seems that way Davey.
|
|
By:
Hope so, backed it antepost and was near discarding it, sure I read it was going RSA for definite.
|
|
By:
No sense in this, cos Gigginstown will win the RSA with Don Poli!

IN.....!!!

As I said on the 6th March - not wholly unexpected - fibbers!
