Going: Hurdle Soft-Heavy in places; Chase Soft-Good to Soft in places.
Ballyalton
Oscar Rock
Timesremembered
Beat That
Shantou Magic
Royal Regatta
Creepy
Kaki De La Pree
Port Melon
Captain Cutter
One my favourite races, given that it will be really testing ground and for his liking of newbury i like Oscar Rock.
Ballyalton has done his winning on better ground.
Kaki De La Pree might be a live outsider.
Thoughts ?

Agreed. And On. Taken 5/1. It is his soft ground bumper that made him standout. He looked really good when it was so have to give him the benefit of the doubt re his last run, and in anycase it was a perfectly decent effort.

I hope it is on, really heavy rain in newbury tonight.
|

By:
yep could be off.
His form figs with soft in going description are 111. On officially Good, they are 22 and those two defeats were actually behind decent horses. Point is though, if it was slightly softer, he could be unbeaten, 5/5. |

Yeah his two wins at newbury on soft ground read very well, cant remember the last time newbury was rained off.

6 line up
1 Captain Cutter 2 Creepy 3 Kaki De La Pree 4 Oscar Rock 5 Shantou Magic 6 Timesremembered At least we got a decent price on OR, will be interesting to see if they ride Timesremembered like they did at chepstow and not at cheltenham. Kaki De La Pree still interests me as he has won over further and will like the ground. |

By:
Thanks Ibrahima - whether it wins or loses I'm happy with the price I had. I opened an account with 8 8 8 just to get the 6/1
after I saw your original post. It'll be interesting to see what the prices are like when they open up later. |
|
By:
Nice prices procured. I've never bet with 888 before so just took the 5/1 elsewhere. He'll be 3/1 at best.
What is the forecast ? Any chance of an abandonment.. |
|
By:
nice and bright, pretty certain it will be on.
|
|
By:
Good stuff. Only 2 firms priced it up so far, tops is 11/4.

Whatever happens tomorrow, he wants a trip and soft ground. Got Sefton Novices written all over him.

Kaki De La Pree pricewise ?
|
|
By:
something up, looks a cracking race but i was expecting kdlp to be around 12/1 and a bit of value.
Already backed kdlp at 66/1 for 3mile novice at cheltenham. |
|
By:
managed some 8's and 15/2 agree looking a good race. Nice 66/1 if turns up at chelts.
|
|
By:
Looks perfect race for OR will be pretty disappointed if he doesn't go close. Good race though
|
|
By:
Strange run, that. Looked like being well beaten 2 out but then stayed on to grab 3rd place.
|
|
By:
Thanks for the tip. Came out a small winner so I'm happy.
|
|
By:
Still say, it's Sefton novices on soft ground
|
|
By:
Really good quality race I thought. Captain Cutter v impressive & interesting for AB. McCoy was taking a pull on him out the back he had so much horse turning in. Oscar Rock ran ok but he doesn't look the same horse at the moment to me. Still think it was strange to move him from a yard where he was thriving.
|
|
By:
Thought OR ran quite free and seemed to change his legs a few times. Maybe the heavy ground just didn't suit. Ballyalton backers will be hoping he just had an off day!
|
|
By:
Disappointing in the end, beaten a long way out.
|
|
By:
Disappointing run. Looked a proper horse when trained by Harry Fry.
|
|
By:
Would n't give up on him, Jefferson knows how to prepare one for the festival.
|

By:
There is no guarantee a bumper horse will transfer his ability to hurdles. I wouldn't necessarily say it's the change in stable even though it was an odd decision. In anycase, OR's has still reached a fair level. And don't Challow Hurdle winners have a poor record of winning the Neptune? Maybe getting beat is no bad thing for March.

didn't al ferof finish a well beaten 3rd in the fog, in this.....
