CANTLOW - Irish Grand National

Perhaps because on his best form he looks to be a blot and two runs back he shaped as if a return to form was possible.

McCoy maybe on board?

I thought McCoy would be on IF IN DOUBT?

Yes would have thought had better chance,was just guessing re the money for Cantlow no fickin chance with me.

he may well win but I can't see anything
in the form to suggest he's the winner,
unless the step up in trip brings a lot
of improvement.

Must be doing cart wheels on the gallops...

Question is could you trust a horse who seems to have lost his love for the game this season?

Won't be carrying my money. One who will be is, Los Amigos

Is McCoy on board deffo

Yeah, was on ATR Tim.

can't believe it, he had several good looking options looking at Cantlow's
form on the book he has no chance horse must have grown wings

Comments all make sense , but he has a stone less than when 8th last year and AP was the one who , quote ' Pulled him up sharply ' at Kempton in Feb ..when  ' in touch .'

To me that means one thing .......Wind Operation .

Not sure he has had the operation, but mention has been made of a tongue tie being used in gallops.

They are missing a zero on his price on this seasons form imo.

Can't go backing him at this price.

Dogora and Rule The World small bets for me.

Silver Tassie for me at 33's.

I like Cantlow as well though, and wanted him to get an entry for Aintree, he looked a JP "special" earlier in the season. I might have a second bet on him, or maybe If In Doubt, The Job Is Right, or Lots of Memories.

I like to attack these big races and my main two bets are Champagne James (19/1) and Thunder and Roses (30/1) with smaller bets on Daring Article (50/1), Rivage D'or (50/1). I may finally have a smaller bet on My Murphy as a saver.  Im worried about Cantlows ever dropping mark but he seems badly out of form ? Also worried about Lots of Memories but seems short enough at around 14s.

Have you watched his last run? He was absolutely full of running when he was pulled up.

Worth watching his last 3 runs tbf.

Not watched as sounds rubbish regardless of video....will have a look tho....but to be honest I would want more than 10/1 to think this can bounce back to winning a competitive race like this

Prominent, chased winner 7th to 10th, lost place from 12th, in touch but ridden when pulled up sharply after 4 out, dismounted (op 8/1)

Chased leaders, went 2nd when jumped right and mistake 8th, lost place 10th, lost touch 14th, tailed off 2 out (tchd 9/1)

Chased leaders, lost place and shaken up after 11th, weakened before 13th (op 14/1)

nice one Kipper

WD Kipper.

2nd for me

Cantlow... Stone lighter... ran similar to last year (if not worse)????

Did people really back it... or did bookies just think McCoy factor and slash the price and that bought it to everyones attention ?

Anyway - for those who did Cantlow will have a second chance to redeem himself BET365 Gold Cup will probably be on a lower mark... will wait and see
