Charlie Hall Chase

Let's not get carried away by a mickey mouse race. When was the last Gold Cup winner to win this race?

 

[Diamond Geezer]

In looking for a small sized field for his next race sounds as if Harry Topper might receive an entry in the Lexus

 

[Grasshopper]

Tilting at windmills giving Topper a Lexus entry - he'd be pulled-up at half-way.

 

[chroniclandlord]

No chance in the Lexus, Gigginstown alone have at least three you would fancy to beat him.

 

[Ardross]

Tidal Bay surely will win the Lexus !

 

[LUKE]

Would be a popular winner with all racing fans.

We thought the same about Synchronised !

True, But hindsight is a wonderful thing when you consider Quito de la roque was the 2/1 fav in that race.

wouldn't be to quick to crab harry topper. he beat benneficient last year too, as well as rocky creek, before losing his way, which i believe was because he frightened himself falling at kelso. imo his novice form wasn't far off the best in not a vintage year. he's clearly got an engine and the way he picked himself up throughout the race impressed me a lot - he could have easily cried enough. he's still very lightly raced in comparison to what he beat the other day and i can only see him improving, and if roi de mee is the best irelands got to offer.......

A likeable horse but Benefficient doesn't stay three miles .
