good cards this weekend

how about the weather forecast and the meeting going ahead?

 

[granger]

It's meant to get cold but would have to be hopeful

Cracking card

 

[SlimChance]

Best National Hunt card before Xmas. I'm going for good things for Staying Article in the hurdle.

 

[Euronymous]

I agree on the card. Three top drawer races.

Think Jezki looks a likely bet if he touches 3s on the day. Gets a bit of weight from the favourite and looks a horse with a decent amount of speed.

 

[granger]

Finding it very hard to pick a winner in both top novice races

 

[Euronymous]

Is the stable vibe positive re Arvika Ligeonniere? He was out for a long time.

 

[granger]

Pitched straight in to the Drinmore with no race since May, I'd say they must be confident enough

 

[qzy]

Is the stable vibe positive re Arvika Ligeonniere? He was out for a long time.

Supposed to have jumped very very well in schooling a few weeks ago

 

[links781]

Back to lay for the Arkle,surely see it cut tomorrow with a half decent performance

Ruby in the examiner

I’m on Arvika Ligeonniere in the Drinmore Chase and the tactics here are going to prove fascinating. You might believe Arvika is up against it, but he’s a fine big horse and a real chaser.

He won in a canter at Punchestown in May, by 13 lengths, and you dismiss him at your peril. But he likes to front-run, as does Pride Of The Artic and Buckers Bridge, so something has to give. My worry is that we will set it up for the Dedigout.

I can't see AL being in the mix for the Arkle whatever about the Rsa, he ran in the Albert Bartlett as a novice hurdler.

 

[On The Bridle]

Three horses have tightened significantly this evening for tomorrow

Our Conor
Minsk
Zaidpour

 

[Hamm]

7/4 on Voler la Vedette is enormous, no?

 

[sunybay]

very good card

Champagne Fever is too short
Jezki the most likely winner for me and Minsk could be the main danger
very good race


Dedigout impressive on debut and looks ideal for this race
Buckers Bridge the main danger


in the Hattons Grace
tricky race,
Voler La Vedette best figure is when chasing Big Bucks in the Cheltenham race
but the rest of her form is not so especial.
Zaidpour is the one for me, with stable in form and Ruby picking him, goes well fresh and should have targeted this race

Monksland and So Young not out of it either
the former good form last season and quite impressive first time out in the season when beating The Joxer who run well yesterday at the course
So Young ahs good figures but maybe lacks a little bit of class


great racing

7/4 on Voler la Vedette is enormous, no?

Exactly what I was just thinking Hamm. Seriously considering having a wedge on.

 

[Hamm]

Jezki
Buckers Bridge
VdV

For me.

 

[granger]

Agree with Suny re some VDV concerns

She cannot be ridden off the pace like she was the last day again.

 

[chroniclandlord]

Champagne Fever for me but with no great confidence, this should be a real good race.

While Dedigout should take the Drinmore, AL might turn out the better horse in the long run.


Zaidpour to beat VLV in the Hattons Grace.

 

[granger]

Our Conor won well there

Dessie Hughes has a nice one in him. Jumps his hurdles a bit big though

 

[granger]

Go on the Jezki, touch of class

Reckon the first two are very good novices

Minsk is a dog

 

[chroniclandlord]

Top class race. Two very good novices.

 

[chroniclandlord]

Champagne Fever looks a Neptune horse more than a two miler though.

 

[granger]

Would imagine CF will be stepped up at some stage soon

 

[Digger]

Ruby set it up for him tho... Champagne needs further NOW.

 

[Bar the Bull]

Champagne Fever looks a Neptune horse more than a two miler though.

More like a Uttoxeter National horse to me. A slow old boat.
