Novice Chasers 2009/10

[Hamm]

I still think Burton Port is a huge each way price for the RSA (as I said a few pages back) - 158 isn't far from what i was thinking and his price compared with Diamond Harry is bizarre. I think this horse has really gone under the radar.

Pandorama appeals to me at a big price.Hasn't done much wrong this season at all. Can see him placing at least

 

[bloodnok]

Not very origional but Weird Al for me. Improving every run and possibly more to come. He has course form, stamina no problem and a safe jumper. Like the name too.

I don't think that he will win it, but I can see him placing.

 

[LUKE]

Pandorama is a class act but Meade isn't being positive about Cheltenham.I T
think Weapons Amnesty is inferior to him but might be a better prospect for the festival.

 

[Grasshopper]

I see that Geraghty is jocked-up on Punchestowns in the Ascot decs. Anyone heard if he is an intended runner? Henderson sounded sceptical earlier in the week.

 

[Justin Redman]

i dont think punchestowns will go at ascot. i think he will go straight to the festival, a fresh horse and he will win the RSA

Mikael D'Haguenet is entered in a beginners chase next week.

 

[granger]

Good stuff. He would want to be winning that pretty comfortably for them to aim him at Cheltenham

 

[Melendez]

Mikael D'Haguenet is entered in a beginners chase next week.

I'm sure it has been posted on here before, but what was actually wrong with him?

 

[granger]

He had a cut on his hind leg and a splint injury

 

[Justin Redman]

Interesting to see how he goes. Could be a major shake up in the betting market however he runs.

 

[Guest_]

Looks like Mikael D'Haguenet is going to run this week as he now has another entry this weekend.

 

[Justin Redman]

He's got entries both on the 24th at Fairyhouse or the 27th at Navan. My worry is that he hasnt run since May because of the injury. Will surely come on for the run

 

[granger]

Which horse was Mullins talking about in this weeks Irish Field

He has a great method of jumping, he has the heart of a lion and he just seems to be a natural over fences

 

[Justin Redman]

Not sure although must have been a good one for him to comment.

 

[trackside528]

Cousin Vinny?

 

[granger]

As CV is going back hurdling, I doubt it was him

 

[Guest_]

Shakervilz.

 

[granger]

Good man Gal.

 

[trackside528]

Is the Arkle still the target for Shakervilz? Doesn't have a hope in hell of winning it mind.

 

[Justin Redman]

He's got an entry in the Arkle and the RSA too. The Arkle seems the more likely target at the moment

 

[chroniclandlord]

In the Irish Field last Saturday Mullins said " the pace thay go in the Arkle will bring his stamina into play"

 

[chroniclandlord]

Tazbar is out for the season after suffering a tendon injury.

 

[Hamm]

What do those who have followed Sports Line closely make of his chances in the Arkle (is he even certain to line up?)

I'm pretty confident Sizing Europe won't be winning, and Osana can be easily written off. I like Captain Cee Bee but he's awfully short now, and his jumping is a little worrying.
