This looks a match for me between ISLAND LIFE & WALCOT LATHYRUS
ISLAND LIFE
ISLAND LIFE looks to have found a new lease of life lately, & sets the standard here, having already won 2 Hunters with ease & was running well when it fell at Aintree….trained by the man of the moment in hunters..Steve Flook….
20f is definitely its trip & Ludlow will suit it well…. looks better on good ground these days…although won on yielding/soft in Ireland so cant have that as an excuse if its beaten & will take some pegging back if it gets an easy lead, providing its confidence hasn’t been affected by the fall at Aintree….
ISLAND LIFE is a stand out on form in this field & will be very hard to beat!!
Only a 7yr old, WALCOT LATHYRUS is a pointer who looks to be very progressive, from one of the top P2P yards ….Sheila crow…makes its Hunter Chase debut here.
Pulled up on its point debut last year, then went to Tabley & won its maiden by 15l.
It has won all 3 points in 2012…..starting off in January at Thorpe Lodge where it stayed on well over 20f, then went to bangor (20f) & won on the bit by 8l……then last time out , hacked up at
Eyton-on-Severn by a distance over 3m..albeit in a 3 horse race which was no more than an exercise canter…..but the horse its beaten this year are not in the same league as ISLAND LIFE!
Paddy Gerety….Sheila Crows head lad (joined the stable last year), has ridden WALCOT LATHYRUS in all its victories & has stated that this is the best Pointer he has ever ridden….& he has ridden a few of the stables horses…
Owner Derek Pugh from Shropshire, is reluctant to travel to see WALCOT LATHYRUS run & Sheila Crow has stated “I would like to win a hunter chase with the horse for him at Ludlow.".. …
but I cant see it being this one, as it will have to be a really good performance to beat ISLAND LIFE
FAIRWOOD PRESENT…at 14 yrs.. is getting no better & has a lot to prove on its last run, along with the rest of the field… who don’t look good enough.
ISLAND LIFE has to give WALCOT LATHYRUS 5LB, but is rated way better than this field….& I cant see that stopping it, even though WL has been winning easily in Points…this could just be a step too far on its hunter debut against a proven horse like ISLAND LIFE…who has to take a good deal of stopping here.
Was hoping for around evens.....but deserves to be odds on...
