Reckon it was just the case of anothe, small field, uncompetitive Irish gd1, where most of the bunch were out for a blow. Be highly surpised if her jumping stands the test of an half-decent CH.

Given the talent he's had in that yard that's under achieving but the main point is he can't keep them sound. Bob's Worth was pretty much gone the year after his big win and Long Run didnt have a very long career - esp when you compare him to similar sort of very precocious chasers like Kauto and Bristol DM.

loads of horses fall off fast after winning or running big in a gold cup. mentioning kauto does nothing for your point either given he's probably the biggest exception to the norm in the history of jumps racing in terms of talent combined with longevity.

i wouldn't put henderson up with someone like nicholls in terms of training staying chasers but i wouldn't call his training of them "wank" either.
 
In my opinion anything over evens on Honeysuckle is value -she is a winning machine who fooled us all into thinking she was lucky last March.Will be my biggest bet ever at the festival.
 
We'll find out tonorrow if Gary Moore declares Goshen for the handicap hurdle at Huntington on Thursday. I seem to be the only one who hasn't totally written off his chance next month yet.

Ah scrap that.

He's not entered in it anymore. I take it the meeting has been abandoned.

Hope she wins for you Luke, but hope you're not going overboard on the strength of her recent win. For mine; she was never seriously challenged, and beat 2 which were probably unsuited by the ground, anyway.

I agree with this.

I think the race is quite open myself, despite what the market is telling you. I always want to take Honeysuckle on though, and obviously haven’t managed to do so successfully yet :lol:

Im still convinced Abacadabras was the one to take out that race. Money on the day will be the telling bit. He was hammered for the Supreme.

Stable has been very good to me over the years but if he doesn’t win at least one of the big 3 races at the festival this year I will be having a bad week.
 
Maries Rock County as discussed earlier, and Call Me Lord Coral Cup. Hendo has been messing with them both all season.

Yeah, the horse hasn't been off all year and somewhat lucked into the Mogiana. Agree money on the day will be huge esp with 4 places being paid
