Fair enough. He did seem a likeable type. All be it last year's juveniles looked particularly bad to me.

You need to follow the French juvenile forum.

One I liked the look of 1st time out this season was Pym for Nicky Henderson. Thought he won very well. Henderson and Nicko seemed very pleased on the day too. This was the same race Altior won in 2015. If I recall they were saying the horse had some problems which have been ironed out. Currently available at 33/1 for the Supreme. Don’t think its priced up for anything else…..

I had a small bet in the Ballymore before that race so he is priced for that. They will likely go the Altior and Supreme route seeing Nicky seems to love Pym.

Went off a huge price was 5/4 yesterday.

Tidy performance by Felix Desjy to open its account over hurdles

Fanny Wank · 29-10-2018 10:58am

Samcro stays over hurdles. I'm not all that surprised but I'd personally have preferred he'd gone chasing

https://twitter.com/BetfairRacing/status/1056844471747276801?s=19

kiers47 · 29-10-2018 5:54pm

I think I'd have stayed hurdling myself. He was one of the best novice hurdlers I can remember. Very slick at his hurdles.

madmoose · 29-10-2018 8:16pm

I think Samcro even at this stage will win the CH but on paper it could be decent if all turn up with Buvair, Melon, Summerville Boy and Laurina possibly in the mix come the Spring. Lets hope all get there injury free.

Pym entered in the first at Ascot Saturday. Another race won by Altior in 2015. PP only bookie with 33's left now. BetVictor as short as 16/1.
*Actually only 25's with PP too...

kiers47 · 30-10-2018 3:59pm

I see The Worlds End is out in a Novice Chase at Chepstow today. Has some credible opposition to in the shape of Now McGinty. Looks a straight match on paper.
I thought NM would be a bit shorter if im honest but i havent really attempted to size it up. Have been looking mostly at Breeders Cup yesterday and today and probably for the rest of the week.

Wouldn't Laurina get a Mares allowance, 7lbs I think? Would give her a right chance.

kiers47 · 30-10-2018 4:48pm

Laurina is more or less in the juvenile hurdle bracket for me. You'd want to see her do it against some credible opposition in open class before considering her a contender to the likes of Buveur D'air, Samcro, Melon, etc... I mean she has a chance of course but she is pretty much the same price as Melon in places ante post. I couldn't be having that at this stage.

Great round of jumping by him and also Now McGinty in fairness.

Moon Dice · 30-10-2018 5:25pm

I can't understand how Summerville boy is 14/1 for the champion hurdle. Last year and it stumbled at the last/second last (can't remember exactly) and won impressively. I suppose its liking for bit of soft ground is built into the price but the trainers have said they are going for the CH too so seems big

Ya fair shout. I think he should probably also be ahead of Laurina in the betting.

Slattsy · 30-10-2018 6:38pm

Is Melon staying hurdling?

All finished in a heap in that race so will be interesting to see how it works out this season

Samcro will make the market for the Champion . I think he is overrated and the champion won't suit him . Only problem is im not sure where the quality in the race is yet..

He could still back into it but he looks a chaser to me .

Id imagine so. He is flat bred. I only seen him once in the flesh but he doesn't really have the scope of a horse that would enjoy jumping a fence.

You dont think the back to back Champion possesses quality?

True, but that doesn't mean a 169 rated two time Champion Hurdler lacks quality

Don't think anyone's denying beveur dair is a good horse but is just doing a best mate

kiers47 · 31-10-2018 3:49pm

Id have been absolutely shocked if Min stayed hurdling and beat Buveur D'air. Min got by far the best ride in that supreme. In my mind BD was the 2nd best horse.
To call him lucky because other horses went chasing all the same is a bit harsh. You still need to get back fit and well to be a dual CH winner.

RivetingRoger · 31-10-2018 3:53pm

Douvan finished?
Small stress fracture/ligament tear

Horses are like cars
once they start to croak, they rarely make it back to top form

Mullins also made a comment about it being his 'good leg' so he obviously now has problems with at least two legs, shame really was confident they could get him back to the top.

It reminds me a bit of when Hurricane Fly was winning Grade one after Grade one and teh arguement put forward was he was simply beating the same horses over and over and the opposition was poor, sometimes you have to look a little bit further than the opposition to appreciate the strenght of the form.

never got that argument - over the years he beat them all....solwhit, binocular,peddlers cross, zarkander, rock on ruby, jezki, our conor to name a few

RivetingRoger · 31-10-2018 5:07pm

Did fly beat Our Conor?
When?

Jezki had the measure of him for a year or 2, they were titanic battles, albeit at different ends of the age spectrum accepted

was if fairyhouse when they went head to head clear to the last and jezki hit it a whallop???

He beat him in the Ryanair and in the Irish CH also in Cheltenham i guess but Our Conor fell that day

our conor was in those races with himself and jezki. our connor got a lot closer in the irish champion hurdle i think it was and was probably upward curve for cheltenham where he fell. will never know unfortunately. yes i think it makes it even more impressive coming back and beating jezki who had age on his side. was also leopardstown where jezki clattered the last. he was unbeatable there.

Agree fully but it was repeatedly thrown around

kiers47 · 31-10-2018 5:24pm

1 thing i will say about Hurricane Fly and i would have been a massive fan and his achievements are for sure under appreciated.
The theory that he wasnt right in the Champion that Rock On Ruby won i cant be having what so ever. He was completely undone by the tactics of that race and he never was truly in love with Cheltenham either.

same as kauto star, just shows how good they were when they won twice at the festival, winning the 2 biggest races despite clearly not being in love with the track

RivetingRoger · 01-11-2018 10:29am

Any word om Jezki? Has no entries listed as yet.
Presume Lady Harrington would have announced if one of her stable stars was retiring?

what a horse

Angliru · 01-11-2018 11:29am

Mullins saying he's aiming Laurina for the CH. So fill your boots with Laurina @4/1 for the Mares.

Easy enough to add the channels in the above link Paddy. All the frequencies are at the bottom of the page

kiers47 · 02-11-2018 2:51pm

That was fairly dissapointing. He'd want to come on a good bit from that. Bedrock would be lapped in the CH.
