its a fascinating situation..and one that as a flat follower..i rarely..well never see in that code...i love all these NH animals..they are proper heroes to me..if i owned one of these and owt bad happened i would be gutted totally..i'll have to say that people who own these horses..and run them...

lil rockerfeller is type of horse..had it been with certain connections..would have won a string of handicaps by now..not that i'm suggesting any underhandness of course to get those wins:D

i really don't see Yanworth as a top 2 miler in a similar way to i didn't see ..the new one.. being one..he hasn't got the gears..he has the gears to travel at 2.5+..but having gears to be sat going well at those trips is another league to be sat going well in a CH..its two different strokes...

age isn't an issue after yesteday..any horse that can do that needs respect..full stop..we will never know what would have happened had he stood up in teh GC..initially i thought he might get caught out..but on yesterdays performance..i am mystified..mystified in a good way..he is a giant of a...

if you read my post... have stated 3.4lb..or lengths per second if yesterdays race had been over 2f further..coneygree would not have beat CC i'll say again..i am a Coneygree fan..and i don't do horse fan bollox..but CC has put in an immense performance yesterday..to ignore it is to turn...

i like your logic by the way Maruco..it challenges me to think a little more..nice stuff

fair comment..Yanworth may be better than Lil...at the moment..its the forward viewing of improvement with Lil that makes the prices attractive..i'm not on myself but Lil is defying the rating every run..a sure sign of improvement..and racing is based on improvement..or the appreciation of it as...

tbh Warb..i am starting to think we can make good out of it..i just hope that May doesn't go cap in hand to them..it really does need to be..right..we out..lets get it sorted i'd be looking for no favours from the euro twits..i'd be..lets get free and get stuck in..article 50..get it...

just a question..as my memory isn't what it should be..they said that Coneygree was first novice to win GC since Captain Christy..but i seem to remember Little Owl hadn't had much experience when winning in 81..and he beat some major oppo

Aughex..CC beat a solid 140 horse 14 seconds..beating it on both circuits by 14 seconds in total..thats not same as he has always been..its way better believe me..i'm a Coneygree fan....but CC has put in a level not seen at the distance for one long time..ignore him at your peril..a bit like...

lil rockerfeller was giving Yanworth 4lb yesterday..so would have won by 3 if handicapping works..he is dfeying his breeding as it is..has improved every race..so to me is a contender..if he isn't..then forget Yanworth..because Yanworth should have buried Lil yesterday..but didn't

my view is that last year CC .was a solid 175/177 horse..and Coneygree when won GC..was 178/180 horse..that went against the pro's ratings of low 170's at the time..i might be wrong..we don't know yet but if yesterdays win is really what i think..then CC is even better than last year..verging...

thats an unreal..but very likely scenario..brilliant to me..it would be..does CC truly stay 3m2.5f+ on probably deadish ground at Cheltenham..to be able to reproduce a mid 180's rating which i believe he achieved yesterday..or will mid 170's+ stayer..thistlecrack..be able to jump similar to...

thats pretty incredible then..thanks Euro he just gets better as he gets older..it really is unreal..whatever they feeding him..i wants some

just done a quick measure comparing the betfair to the handicap..start point the path on the bend after they start..then there again next time to finish..basically circuit times Cue Card..1st circuit = 192 seconds Cue Card 2nd circuit = 181 seconds 3 faces west first circuit = 198 seconds 3...

i think your post sort of sums up why i personally take racing day by day. Its hard enough doing that without the added lottery of where X will actually run in future. I know you guys love the speculation...but isn't the race on the day hard enough to solve without the real guessing of a...

Ken Pitterson..who is one of the best paddock watchers i've come across..stated on will radio before the race that Coneygree was about 85% ..and he watches horses everyday I think if anyone judges Coneygree just on that effort..its a bit harsh..and probably not correct based on what Ken said...

but is that reading it correctly?..you are assuming Djack put in the same performance on 7 Apr behind Cue Card as he did behind Coneygree...if that is so... its bang on but there are 3 reasons i personally don't think the April run was his best. Djack is past his very best performances in...

just to add..sorry to TrudiJ and Pernicious from other thread..i get way too involved sometimes..apologies..no offence meant there is no real harm in me..I just lose perspective sometimes..its one of my many faults unfortunately

as despicable as people see him..he could be very good for us economically in 5 years time..we may look back and think..wasn't that good timing..us coming out of Europe just when Trump got elected..now they struggling and we are in clover it could happen like that..Trump..could be our Trump...
