Whinstone boy big chance if weather forecast correct

i also fancy whinstone too, they deffo know how to win a national when the moneys down, i will be watching the weather f,cast closely

Agree Direct on at 60s,backed lto not stopping over 3 miles on soft no weight if getting in could run big race.

Sorry time before last i backed over 3 mile,last time was 2 mile and half miles. Backed on its own e/w 60s and 40s and in e/w doubles in 2000 Guineas with winner i hope?

direct route 29 Mar 20:50


Must have big chance if weather forecast is correct. Race may cut up a bit. Not many will handle the ground. Looks progressive, so steep hike to 136 may not stop him. Will probably carry bottom weight, trainer has won the race before and meets most of the trends.

Worry is that he has not raced beyond 3m so possible non-stayer. Any breeding help would be welcome.

Ok, you can come round to mine tonight if you are attractive.

DR IF GETS IN WILL BE 12/1 MAX 16/1 ON DAY WILL HAVE SERIOUS CHANCE AN WILL STAY M8

Never raced beyond 3m,so doubtful stayer,and if soft a horse will need to stay well for sure.I will be looking for a proven stayer myself.

WHINSTONE BOY (IRE) G, 2001 DP = 4-1-4-5-4 (18) DI = 0.64 CD = -0.22
BOBBYJO (IRE) b. G, 1990 DP = 5-1-4-6-4 (20) DI = 0.67 CD = -0.15
BINDAREE (IRE) ch. G, 1994 DP = 1-1-3-4-1 (10) DI = 0.54 CD = -0.30
NUMBERSIXVALVERDE (IRE) b. G, 1996 DP = 2-0-0-6-2 (10) DI = 0.25 CD = -0.60

BUDD WHINSTONE WILL STAY LONGER THAN THE MOTHER IN LAW :^0

You may be right Norn,but his form says it is not definite at all,why are you so sure mate??

Have to agree with NORN, although WB doesn't fit the trends, he def does stay.

BUDD , VERY FEW ON BREEDING GET OVER 4MILE BUT STATS SAY TOP 2 HALF MILERS BEST FOR NATIONAL JUST LETS SAY IF IT GETS IN STAYING WILL NOT BE AN ISSUE AN USUALLY VERY GOOD JUMPER BUT IF HE GETS IN WILL BE GAMBLED BIGTIME ON SOFT TIL HEAVY GOING

^ an unconvincing explanation imo

All got Busted in the pedigree as did Seagram, Rough Quest & Silver Birch (and 2nds Romany King, What's Up Boys & Supreme Glory)

Apologies Bindaree was a Roselier (like Royal Athlete & Suny Bay)

DUNCAN ILL BET U CANT EXPLAIN WHY IT WONT STAY ?

Iron please don't use Caps Lock.causes me eye strain

BEST M8 sorry BUT AS MOST NO I NEED caps LOCK 2 BRAIN OPS

GREAT!

Ninetieth, I just picked those at random for reference to try to help those who haven't yet read much around dosage. I haven't backed whinstone boy as I haven't yet had a look at the likelihood of him getting in, but he certainly meets the dosage trends. Norn the 2 1/2 miler argument is a common one, but the pedigree's of almost all winners are laden with stamina even though they may have been running at shorter distances- this is a handicap after all.

ok whinstone backers, we need 14 to come out for a run, what will come out u reckon....... i think maybe madison du berlais, air force one, conna castle, pablo du charmil, deutchland, HELP?

Can't see Dooney's Gate running.

u think lennon will run rhinestone? its a 2miler surely

Just got this horse on the following website so MUST come close...

www.grand-national-guide.co.uk/myhorse.php

Save me reading up on terms please.... If I back this horse & he does not get in, is it money back (ballotted out ?)

yes, money back if balloted out

bet 365 non runner no bet and 33/1,seems fair to me as wont be that price on the day if he lines up.

Come on then who's dropping out to let him in?

Air Force One
?
?

hello bud has no bckers

Still not convinced he stays,and in likely soft maybe Heavy,where they need to stay every inch, i will go with a proven one,good luck though.

Dream Alliance will like it soft,better class and proven stayer-thats more like it for me.

if balloted out on Betfair is it money back?

Yes

thanks

the last of the 40,s gone 2day on whinestone! id like to think the moneys coming for it but its probably all my cash!

A stone wrong at the weights with BFT. No chance.

That's 100 lengths over 4 miles btw

:)

Only one or two coming out so the horse has absolutely no chance of getting a run....fact

Heavy ground . Very few finishers. No cover for BFT.... D.O.W.N. Im afraid. Good Luck mind :)

Don't get me wrong JC, I am no backer of favs, but this WB is miles away from the winner of this race.

im prepared to take the chance at the 70,s etc ive got rather than 8,s on fav but its all about opinion tho i suppose

And of course GL to you too.

:)

bertieboy

the more i look at WB - the more i warm to it !

me to. shame it wont run

no chance of running. laid off my bet

bestmate...if he misses the cut...all bets returned ?

Backed him yesterday with Billy h. Did me a favour earlier in the year

All bar three (which he lost) of Whinstone Boy's runs have been right-handed and it is hard to believe that is mere coincidence.

i am on at 50's....so disappointed to see he is nearly the same price on here now and has drifted. rain not coming perhaps and not enough osses dropping out?

not getting in & rain is now history

been raining for last 4 hours in st.helens , 12 miles east of track and more forecast for wednesday

not much rain looking at radar

Tipped by Couch - K.O.D = Kiss of death

Now 30.0...

Out maybe just as well with ground firming up? At least money back but would have been nice to see how he got at 60s e/w.
