    I like a horse called Early Doors in the Christmas Hurdle for Joseph O Brien. He finished third in the Martin Pipe behind Blow By Blow at the Festival and they thought he was going to be a Grade 1 winner. He finished 2nd in last season’s Hatton’s Grace to Mengli Khan who looked to be a world beater at that stage. I think 50/1 today is a massive price for a horse that can still improve. He may not win but he’s no 50/1 shot and I think he could sneak a place.

    Edit: forgot there’s only 7 runners, big ask to finish top 2 but I think he’ll run well all the same

    I hope people weren’t put off by the last 2 lines at the bottom of my post! He actually touched 66/1 about half an hour after I backed him but he shortened right back up again. Funnily enough, if he had have been 22/1 this morning I wouldn’t have backed him. He wouldn’t have finished 2nd if Faugheen has stood up but I thought he battled on well to finish a good second. Apple’s Jade just a beautiful mover, very hard for anything other than a proven Grade 1 winner to even get near her when she’s in that kind of form. I would think Early Doors can keep improving if his jumping gets better and will go well in big races as the season goes on.

    I don't follow racing to any great extent but does Ruby have an inordinate number of falls at the last fence? Bacardys today.

    Aye, he's on a treble now.

    Just trying too hard. Sometimes the horses can only do so much. He is going to end up getting badly hurt again at this rate.

    Road to respect surely would have won without the 2 separate incolidents

    What kind of a race was that. Shocking altogether. Ended up being a half mile sprint in what should've been a staying race. Remind me to ignore this race when checking form in a few months time. Be a nice price on Belshill for the Gold cup now!

    Road to respect wouldn't have won but still on good ground in Cheltenham is a main contender, dreadful race only for David Mullins, Jp should sign him up

    Mullins said they didnt bring Kemboy to the Hennessy due to ground and weight.

    Almost sure the excuse was cancelled ferries?

    I thought it was a cracking run from him. When things cranked up a notch he wasn’t tapped for toe and but for the bad mistake at the last he’d have been bang there with Monalee and Road To Respect. He’ll come on a bundle from that race and I’m sure we’ll see him back at Leopardstown in February.

    Very falsely run race. I'd be taking the form with a pinch of salt, personally.

    RTR the one to take out of it, nearly came down twice.

    Wonder what Henry will do with Monalee..

    Looked a proper race to me lads.

    Monalee, second in an AB (winner won stayers race following year), second in a RSA (winner is fav for GC) and yard firing is a good mark of this batch of GC contenders.

    faugheen lucky to be with us. feared the worst for sure, he is cursed in leopardstown and looked to be limping as he walked past the stands, i doubt we will see him again for a long time.
