paisley park last years winner all the rage and must have a great chance but is odds on and no value to me at all ,may well win but wont be carrying my money . no harm in having a few darts at decent prices and i am taking him on with penhill and city island, both have festival form both have won an albert bartlett and penhill won the stayers a few seasons back and could be ready for a big run , 2 from 2 at the festival and a decent run last time in the boyne he looks to be coming to the boil and is around 20 on here . also backed city island last years spuds race winner been chasing but this looks his game could improve a bundle back at the festival and around 16 on here may be worth a pop .
selections penhill 1 point win around 20 plus on here and city island 16 ish on here 1 point win . glaktcyfa.

I'm doing another Envoi Allen and 'lay' this beast to risk manage again. Similarly Samcro and Faugheen.

city island won last seasons ballymore not the spuds race ^^^............beating champ who HAS NOT DONE THE FORM ANY HARM.

looking at this more in depth and ignoring his runs over fences this season city island has a decent chance imo ,better than the odds of around 16s on here ,his ballymore win was a very decent effort and the 2nd champ has done the form no harm winning cosily at aintree, and in yesterdays rsa , city island dissapointed at punches festival but may have been over the top . the step up in trip could bring further improvement and he stayed on strongly in the ballymore . penhill has solid credentials having been there and done it before and with willie getting off the mark yesterday its all systems go i am going in again on these 2 .good luck. and opinions encouraged .

I would say,just be careful Foyles,PP is a winning machine,and imo different class.
However,i do think he could be vulnerable in a slow run race,and your two plus SB could threaten him in that scenario. Don't go too mad!! |

already gone in quite heavy budd and will be topping up through the day . gotta respect paisley park but at the prices i have to be against him . not knocking him and he may well be a class apart but the media will be all over him and he may too short come race time as money comes for him. i just question the form ,last year he beat sam spinner and an ageing faugheen and this season he has also beaten the best of the brits but they may be a modest bunch who were behind him ,he will be meeting a few better horses than he beat in last years stayers imo ,he may still be too good but with his profile all those wins next to his name and the media attention he smay well be overbet and if he hits 4/6 on here i will be laying which is rare for me tbh . if i am wrong and often am thats life .

Interesting to see Apple’s Jade being nibbled at. A huge leap of faith given recent performances. Trying new headgear and jockey. She could go close but it’s a very big ‘if’ in terms of her rediscovering her sparkle.

I need Paisley Park (average 13/8) for doubles and a treble with Champ; 'lay' some to risk manage.

The fav Gaelic Warrior looks likely to be fences bound. Another nail in the coffin courtesy of Mr Mullins even before the NH season begins proper.

Flooring Porter also going chasing.

Paisley Park is getting old for a championship race but his odds are too long for the 2024 World Hurdle at the moment. If he runs again before March and does not disgrace himself he will be my bet.
|

He has twice beaten Dashel Drasher and when the result was reversed, PP was giving 6lb on both occasions. PP ran poorly in the race last year but DD beat Teahupoo so why are both of them telephone number prices (while Teahupoo is favourite) despite dominating at Newbury? I always think that past Stayers Hurdles are the best guide so those 3 would seem to be the ones to concentrate on.
|
|
By:
It does seem to be the ultimate specialist C&D. By similar logic, the defending champion Sire du Berlais is a big price. However, it's always a difficult race to weigh up until we know which "failed" chasers will be running. For example, it's not impossible Flooring Porter will end up back here.
|
|
By:
I agree that the field is as clear as mud but why is Teahupoo trading at a fraction of the odds of horses that beat him last year?
|
|
By:
His target is clear. He's younger than most. Some people think he would have won last year had he not been hampered by DD, he won't have Davy Russell riding so weakly this time. But yeah, there must be better value bets in the race.
|
|
By:
PP and DD both run on Saturday so they must be sound and fit at the moment. If either of them win the Long Walk they should be favourite for the World Hurdle imo.

took some of the big prices on here flooring porter for buttons for this in case they revert back to hurdles.
|
|
By:
Still think that Paisley Park is the best value bet of the meeting. He will probably be second or third so I am waiting for Betfair to put up a place market.

By:
Impaire Et Passe (nrnb). He's class and hopefully stamina too. The others are much of a muchness, I believe.
