QM Champion Chase betting

Gutted that Champagne Fever didn't get his chance. He'd have been right there. As for it being a poor renewal, well it was a lot better than last years! I'm not sure last years SDG would have won that today. A very strong pace was set and he just couldn't hack it. Fair play to Dodging Bullets. I couldn't have him because of his record at the course.

Bit harsh mate the truth is when they have an ailment like he obviously has you never know till you get them on the course.

He was full off himself over the first 2 for all we know he could have burst then,,,,,,,,,they're not machines

I can tell you now that he is going into the Queen Mother Champion Chase (3.20) in as good a form as he was before he won it with ease in 2013.

a poor renewal?..SDG and sprinter sacre??

its only a week ago people were saying how SDG was back to his very best at Chepstow..SS i can understand not running well..but to call it a poor field

last year everyone said it was sh1te coz SDG won it..then after he won it everyone raving about him..very fickle this game

Mate don't be a dick thats like saying the Champion Hurdle was a great race because Our Conor RIP was in it

Neither ran anything close to their best the 2nd is older than my granny and a legless horse held on to 3rd.

He'll be 20/1 for next years race after nov wait and see
 
here is the statement a few of you need to learn.. i got it wrong

you will be better for it

Euro..CF would have won?..what a load of old nonsense..deary me...he needs 2.5 miles for one

i did say DB was the ignored horse though Tanlic way back in this thread..he was my original pick..mainly because each time he wins everyone says the race is sh1t..just like last year with SDG

i don't hide because i lose 20 quid on a horse..particularly when i was defending the winner of this for weeks on end on here

when many clouds wins on friday..that will be a sh1t race too..as each times he wins he is never deemed good enough

these threads are getting worse and the motivation to post (josses hill??) is dead, but i will step in and back you on that one ec. one both counts

what will not also be acknowledged is how, yet again, the trainer has yet again wrought continuous improvement out of a horse. All very well having the raw material but to incrementally improve and keep a horse enthused season after season is what it is really all about

A great win because its reward for excellent training. Also one in the eye for the many on here who sneered at PN daring to suggest DB had a chance
 
it's a poor poor renewal for me

you just can't get away from the position of somersby and special tiara at the line

the sdg of last year would have won, and that was no great renewal either

if you want to be calling people dick's ..i'd read the last few posts..there are some ludicrous statements here..unchallenged except for me..Euro is talking right out his arse each time he posts for one...but as per usual no bugger says owt about that..every race is a **** renewal..deary me

glas half f00kin empty all the time..ffs.

no one said its a great renewal..now..it still needed winning..beforehand it was one of the best ever renewals..on paper
 
One Man was better over further than 2 miles. He pissed a QM

Native Upmanship was the epitome of a 2 and a half miler. He would have pissed that as well.

its a 2.5 miler Euro..get used to that idea..i'll bet it goes up in trip now they haven't had to run here

I don't agree with that. I know we've had this discussion before but CF had enough pace to do Jezki & MTOY over 2 miles. He also saw off Dodging Bullets in last years Arkle, also over 2 miles the last I checked. So Dodging Bullets may have improved but what's to say CF hasn't as well?
 
CF was beat by Western bloody Warhorse in an atrocious Arkle.

There's nothing to suggest he'd have won today.

Nicholls is a master at continually finding improvement out of his horses.

as i've said before...people won't see the obvious sometime..i argued for 2 years that TNO was a 2.5 miler...now its clear what he is..not one person has admitted it ...so i ain't wasting my life arguing CF case...he won't win a Champion Chase whilst he has a hole in his arse..and TNO won't win a CH

it don't matter how much folk want horses to win a race they can't..the signs are on the wall..just need reading
