West Approach update right on cue from Racing UK:
http://www.racinguk.com/news/article/49468/west-approach-likely-to-stick-to-novice-company-at-cheltenham |
|
By:
Wholestone highly unlikely to run.
|
|
By:
Just and a good saver on West Approach as with Barcardys heading to the Neptune, this increasingly looks a three horse race between DD, West Approach and Augusta Kate.
|
|
By:
Sorry make that four horse race with Penhill
 Wonder if HdB will be more tempted to have another go at DD with Monalee... |
|
By:
What's west approach actually done?
|
|
By:
looked at his rating and he's 2/13, not very inspiring is it?
perhaps people are fooled by the fact he's been doing ok in better company. |
|
By:
record even
|
|
By:
Have a look at Thistlecracks from before he went on his winning sequence! Its not about the number of 1's beside your name it's the substance of form. Would you back a horse in here at 5's havin 15/15 wins to his name.... 15 donkey derbys?
|
|
By:
yeah probably... it'll be bubbling with confidence
 |
|
By:
Dont tell him he's only beating donkeys though!
|
|
By:
CCM where has the Wholestone news come from? Looks strong on here with money waiting to back?
|
|
By:
I'm hoping CCM meant West Approach, I want Wholestone to run.
|
|
By:
From a very credible poster on another forum who knows the stable. There have been a few mentions of him having a setback at a few recent previews, and apparently he has.
|
|
By:
Yes I've been fooled lewisham
 You may not fancy the horse but it's a bit disrespectful to suggests people who do have been 'fooled'. His third place in the Cleeve was impressive for a Novice imo and I think he is a horse going the right away. Let's see. |
|
By:
Hope it's just a New One style setback a few years ago, when there was talk of him not being ok, but still ran and won the Neptune.
|
|
By:
Yeah fingers crossed mate. Only passing the info on I read. Just looked back at my notes and it was Carl Llewelyn who said at a preview the horse had had a setback.
|
|
By:
Assistant trainer so should be fairly solid info. Shame.
|
|
By:
Cheers CCM
|
|
By:
Lots of money to lay still if correct.
|
|
By:
Trainer out of form 0/27 last 14 days slight concern for Wholestone, Ballyandy backers?
|
|
By:
NTD saying he's happy with Wholestone now. Sorry lads, was just posting what I'd seen, but looks like it might be wrong.
|
|
By:
No worries CCM
 , it's one of those cases where I'm pleased someone is wrong. |
|
By:
Henderson says he's running 2 in this Baden & Constantine Bay. He says Constantine Bay reminds him a lot of BOBSWORTH and obviously likes him. Didn't say anything daft like he'd win, but def likes him.
|
|
By:
Doesn't look like it
Baden is 1000 on here |
|
By:
He said they run Baden & Constantine Bay Killie. He didn't say get on at 1000?

Death Duty is No More Heroes reincarnated, in a nutshell. Just hoping Cooper does not screw up (again).
|
|
By:
cooper isn't riding it, god pay attention
 |
|
By:
jack kennedy is going to be onboard
|
|
By:
NMH wasn't winning that race imo, yes he got pushed into the rail but i've already written my view on the race above after watching it.
|
|
By:
It's not on this thread i not sure where it is now

Immaterial now as was 2 years ago but i've just watched the albert bartlett back again there and paused it at key stages of the race and written it below. Not sure NMH would have won anyway but you make your own minds up on that dependant on pocket i suppose but anyways ........ "No more heroes not very fluent over the 4th had to be ridden away from it" I notice Blaklion jumped across him at the 5th, not one i would have been wanting to back at this stage in running either tbh strongly ridden into the flight at the top of the hill and strongly driven str8 after it, however back on the bridle rounding the bend, ish, Whip is extracted but not used as the round the bend, head to 2 out and some small niggles by cooper for the umpteenth time They jump 2 out no more heroes looks strongly ridden to me as cooper ups the ante and wants to win the race, Milsean for me doesn't come across that much, maybe half of a horses width but no more than that. If you ask me cooper went for a gap that was bearly there and paid the price. I doubt he would have won anyways but we will never know that. Here it is was on the Death Duty thread. |

Baden has had some support from somewhere, 36's now.
|
|
By:
He's got absolutely no chance but i've just been on the market for 4 mins and seen money chasing itself out to 310. What some people don't understand is, when someone else puts a bet in at the same price as you have already entered into the system, the first bet is first in the queue! Always astounds me when you see this happen. Am like why? It makes it so easy for market manipulators to make easy money!
|

By:
So, the 1000 has all been taken, so what. Someone has made an easy £7 probably. But in 5 mins after i seen 22 appear at 65, then 12 went over the top at 90, a few seconds later the 22 moved to 90 over the top of the 12 so if left, and some were matched, the 12 would have been matched first leaving the 22. Now the 11 has chased each other out to 310
 Talk about compulsive  |

West approach drifting massively. Now out to 17.0. Has anything been said as I must have missed it??
|
|
By:
has it been declared for the stayers today
|
|
By:
Not heard anything.
If he is still in the Stayers it should not make much difference,he can stay in both at this stage. |
|
By:
The Twitterati Consensus is that there is an interview in RP this morning in which Tizzard states he runs in the Stayers.
Not seen it myself, so don't shoot me I'm only the messenger. |
|
By:
to be wholly accurate it apparently reports that Stayers Hurdle is preference over Albert Bartlett, so still some wiggle room.
|
|
By:
Apparently the owners (same as Thistlecrack) have made the call to go for the Stayers. Earlier in the week Joe Tizzard stated they were going A.Bartlett, but this has now changed!!!!!!!!!
