Let's try and keep it on one thread so we don't annoy the flat boys. B-)
Champion Hurdle
Bino very hard to beat if he turns up 100% on the day with the ground on the good side.
Khyber Kim, Hurricane Fly?, Dunguib? the dangers...
Champion Chase
Tataniano and Sizing Europe for me at this stage. If Tat is fresh with decent enough ground he could be very hard to reel in and I reckon he could be the Nicholls number 1 for this next year. Sizing Europe, one of my favourite horses, loves Cheltenham, loves the fast pace that the race will have, conditions will suit perfectly. B-)
Zebo will be tough to beat, but he is a bit unreliable.
Gold Cup
Weird Al. Good novice season, would have pushed Weapons Amnesty hard in the RSA imo, seeing that Knockara Beau was as close as he was. Weird Al beat Knocky B fto, receving a fair bit of weight and then bit him easier next time on level terms, showing how much progression he had in him. Only 5 lifetime starts, 2 out of 2 at Cheltenham, going to improve again this year, gotta be a player at a massive price now.
World Hurdle would be interesting if Big Buck's didn't show up, if not he's got it in the bag.
Peddlers Cross will win the Arkle if he goes chasing imo, think the way the Arkle is run will suit him perfectly. Alfie Sherrin is the one for the RSA. B-)
There's a good bumper horse of Alan Kings that I thought might be the sort for the Neptune next year, but I can't remember its name ;\ owned by John Hales and won a bumper at a Northern track (I think) maybe Haydock.
Fire away your thoughts B-)

We all getting ready to back Cee Beast in the Champion Chase when he**es in later?
Anybody going to give Go Native another chance in the Champion Hurdle? |
|
By:
Forgot about Go Native. Yeah he's a big player imo.
|
|
By:
Gold Cup is coming back to Ireland imo ;\
Pandorama, Joncol & Weapons fighting out the finish. |
|
By:
Obvious chance FFT, but might be a bigger price midseason when he gets beaten in heavy ground.
|
|
By:
Keep dreaming down :)
|
|
By:
Yes Gunny, think that is the general consensus regarding WA's price :)
|
|
By:
thought I might get a bit of banter for the Tataniano view ;\
|
|
By:
:D
Raya Star the bumper horse? won at Uttoxeter ?:| |
|
By:
High Benefit actually probably the one you're after
|
|
By:
that rings a bell, went off really short price, was a big gamble
|
|
By:
Not biting on that one Gunny ;)
|
|
By:
High Benefit or Tataniano down?
not fishing. |
|
By:
High Benefit (IRE) 11/10F 5 10-9 A King
|
|
By:
Tat!
|
|
By:
gotta be Weird Al for the paddy power
Am i mad in thinking J'Y Vole has a genuine chance in the Gold cup - very unlucky in the ryanair? |
|
By:
Tataniano beat nowt at Aintree imv
was impressive in doing so, but i'll hold judgement on him until he wins a proper race |
|
By:
Osana
|
|
By:
Osana over the top imo. I'm amazed they are running him today tbh
|
|
By:
Tat just made him look over the top B-)
|
|
By:
Just think he'd had one hard race too many, and did't put in his true running. Rest of the field were handicappers
|
|
By:
think he runs on Sat in the Celebration chase.
|
|
By:
Does Twist Magic run?
|
|
By:
think so
|
|
By:
Twist is unopposable at Sandown :x
|
|
By:
who will ride?
|
|
By:
Good question ;\
|
|
By:
They're going to get a Ruby face mask for AP ;\
|
|
By:
Forgot to add that Tat has a very good record at Cheltenham.
Backed Cue Card at 16/1 for the Supreme too a while ago, thought the price was too big. |
|
By:
Cue :x Card
|
|
By:
Albertas run in the gold cup and Time for Rupert in the world hurdle are my two early dabbles
|
|
By:

|
|
By:

|
|
By:

|
|
By:

|
|
By:

|
|
By:
Already on Cue Card (16/1) and Somersby (25/1).
Main focus again will be on the Arkle and Triumph - I will have no problem with several bets in each race unless something breezes up impressively and buggers the market ! |
