    The videos on ATR website of Chapman interviewing Mullins at weekend are brilliant. Basically accuses Willie of not having the balls to run UDS in CH last year and of being a Hurricane Fly fanboy. FairPlay to Chapman. He may be annoying but he asks the questions others fear!

    Do you need a special subscription? I am logged in but it keeps popping up another logon box when I select the videos.

    Nope but think their subscription may have changed re videos recently unfortunately. I've had a login for years

    Won't win QM or WH, will win CH and has an outside chance in GC with Djakadam. One I'd guess


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,224 ✭✭✭jimjamcos


    Obviously only one, if any, Ricci horse will run but Ascot Chase at weekend looks whopper:

    Ascot Chase Betting
    Ptit Zig 2/1
    Balder Succes 9/4
    Champagne Fever 9/2
    Ma Filleule
    Ballycasey 8/1
    Rajdhani Express 14/1
    Theatre Guide 25/1

    With the talent willie has had down through the years its hard to believe he never won the other three. Is it a case of taking the easy option or do a lot of his horses not produce there novice form again ?

    He has had four horses finish second in the Gold Cup over the years.

    Florida Pearl
    Hedgehunter
    Sir Des Champs
    On His Own

    All the talk of Sam Winner in the GC, I expect Road to Riches to finish in front of him again.

    I couldn't go along with that, you either get the price or you dont. Each to their own and all that but backing a horse at 1/4 the price he was a couple of days ago is gambling suicide in my eyes

    No he makes a fair point. It would be difference if the price had gone and nothing had happened in the mean time. I wouldn't be backing him at 8/1 but I understand his reasoning


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 295 ✭✭nobody told me


    Had a look at last years gold cup last night and teaforthree was bang there two out. Is without doubt a class above these has also won the 4 miler at the festival.
    Will have jamie Codd aboard and I think 4/1 is a very fair price

    Must be 70 years at this stage Jim, even before the interweb :pac:

    Teaforthree needs to win or come second in another hunter chase to qualify for the Foxhunters at Cheltenham so just be wary of that before backing yet.

    Willie and Ruby were uncomfortable with that line of questioning. By the way, the solution was not to try playing the videos within chrome.

    Like I said each to his own but id see it like betting on a team you fancy after they go one goal up... 8-1 on Mr Mole to win the champion chase just wouldnt appeal to me at all.

    And so they should be! The decision was biased on Willies part, convenience on Rubys. Still mourning my 22/1. At least Mullins has belatedly admitted what we all knew - that he has an emotional attachment to The Fly to the detriment of any stable rivals

    Anybody think Windsor Park will go to the Supreme?

    I'd be fairly surprised if he didn't run in the Neptune. Davy said before his last run that 18f might be on the short side and he certainly shaped like more of a stayer.

    If the Deloitte on Sunday was an extra 3 furlongs it looks like Windor Park might have won as he was closing on Nichols Canyon

    Not if there was an extra hurdle over them last 3 furlongs!

    Ye i presumed just seen 96/1 on the exchanges thought he might be worth a few euro encase he heads for the Supreme.

    As you say yourself each to their own but at what point do you yourself not back something? Every horse running at Cheltenham has some point in the past being a bigger price. I accept your opinion bit I genuinely would struggle to follow the logic in it.

    Least surprising news of the year - More of That is doubtful for the World Hurdle.
