Cheers

Newmarket 3:35 was 2nd to st nick abbey

^^ GOTCHA

:D

ffs!

thinking will need the run, Iam more of NH man, but Iam going to give the flat a good rattle this yr, so looking for the views of our flat experts on here

Would have been a good winner of the RP without St Nic. Holds Dancing David and Morana on that form, race got a boost yesterday with Co-Cut winning. Stays on strongly and battles for you, I like him.

Just dunno if he'll need the run first time out or not :| I havent backed any Irish horse first time out this season so I wont change for an Engerlish one. Looks to be a nice horse for the season though if hes trained on.

I'm struggling to see what beats him, but is no price :|
DD looks the ew alternative @13/2 - 6s.
Only EK has had a run, but he'd need a massive improvement to get involved here.

i think dancing david is prob my bet!!

Form horse in the race, but I have a niggling feeling that if he gets boxed in, won't have an instant turn of foot. A horse who always needed pushing and shoving as a 2yo. Would have preferred to see him go for the Dante and not Guineas route.

Hannons horses are running well, and his horse is only 3lbs behind EP on ORatings.

think ur right ali, I suppose a strong pace is whats his looking for and would appreciate further and with the big day ahead he maybe vunerable, at evens Il take him on

agree Push, good spot

A couple of reasons why i'm not keen to oppose the fav -
If DD was really good, wouldn't Meehan's mob be shouting about it?
Hannon's horse is friendless in the market.

Small win bet EP for me.

You will probably get bigger in running as pointed out earlier he doesn't quicken instantly and takes a while to hit full stride. DD for me.

john dunlops have started ok ish, but like a lot of others,will come on for a run, great booking for the pilot tho, will hit the front from 3out and stay there.NAP

agree, would be amazed if wasnt bigger i-r

I would rather take MORANA e/w today, got within a respectable distance of the fav at Doncaster, and may be the earlier type, looked to have scope last season, and at te price would be the one for me
Cheers

Agree def bigger i/r.

I suppose if you were a layer, you'd be looking at his running style & fto/fitness as to how he could possibly get beaten.

yeah downallstar, i mean the layers will know whats going to happen with him, he'll swoop late, well atleast thats how i imagine it!!id say we'll kno his fate early, if steady pace i don't think he'll win, id be banking on atleast one of the promising types from last season progressing enough to beat him!might not be better overall but 1st race out and all that, slow pace....lay!

may win, but too short. this race can throw up the odd quare result. wont be backin it

wouldnt argue with u down! his the one to beat but il take him on, not with a heavy line tho
