Personally I think so.

You are too obvious Newmeercat, if he wins you claim even Nico could not get it beaten and if he loses you claim your usual drivel of Nico being at fault?
|
|
By:
I am not certain the sharp Track will suit but if it gets beat you will get to blame Nico for a change

By:
10/11 short enough imo

Hurricane Pat laughed at Old Park Star in a bumper so might have too much speed on this track. Hard to back against OPS but HP looks better value. I look forward to seeing OPS over a fence as he looks another good chaser in the making for Henderson.

v impressive but allowed to walk the dog in front...fill your boots laying that in march

The second beat him five lengths in their introductory bumper.

I suspect that it might have improved a tad,Honcho

he's improved bundles for leaving pumpkin

Or,simply matured,wonders

By:
Very impressive, particularly as you would think a stiffer track would suit better.
|
|
By:
Very very good. 3's is correct
|

By:
Beat nothing

Could easily have been mistaken for you know who.

Well done Betty! And Jones again.

For me sometimes the manner and style of winning overrides what they beat.
|
|
By:
thought the last 2 furlongs were impressive, u have to still have questions about how a hotter race would pan out where the pressure is on much earlier

Comparing bumper race ratings to hurdles

time figure more important cant go off form in UK as most races lack depth

I didn’t compare, I merely pointed out. Don’t be so stupid.

?

By:
I'd have thought he would be better suited to being able to follow a good gallop, elise. Supreme looks like a likely perfect set up to me.
|
|
By:
I can't see him getting beat in the Supreme. Had a few quid antepost at 6s & 7s.

When I see a good performance/s from a young horse who is now showing real promise I always look back at how they started out. Who knows, I might learn something. This one has clearly been brought along quite beautifully. That was my point really.
|
|
By:
wsb is usually on the ball but comparing bumper form to hurdles is plain daft. there is a thin correlation but you'd have to have seen him over jumps to have put it down to the trainer switch.
|
|
By:
id agree with you cider but you always needs to see it and until you do it's the question, just not tested early but otherwise did what was asked
|
|
By:
LoyalHoncho - very good point and interestingly I believe he was 6/1 in his first start for Henderson so clearly the dogs weren't barking and I think the yard didn't know what they potentially had until then. Credit where credit is due - great job from Nicky so far.
|
|
By:
When you watch racing as much as we have you get a good instinct don't you. I can just see him swinging down the hill there, looks made for him.
|
|
By:
Short as 2/1 with Crookes.
|
|
By:
EC looks special as well, mind.

|
By:
sure might do, i guess we'll see what the irish throw at him but obviously has a chance and henderson has clearly got a handle on what's needed
|
|
By:
this horse took money twice in its last 2 bumpers I'd say they've always known its had an engine
you wouldn't have seen this form produced with pumpkin imo but that's subjective |
|
By:
enjoyed that peter marsh
|
|
By:
would be a dull game if people agreed on everything
|
|
By:
and you'd also have to be looking at old park star within a vacuum where no other horses have moved from pumpkins & improved greatly
you're comparing apples and eggs to make the point. maybe he has improved for the switch but you can't conclude that from comparing bumper ratings to hurdling ones. |
