Horses for The Festival

[Nando]

True. Not complaining.

Murmur going round this morning that Ruby rides Yorkhill in the Supreme. Sounds like cobblers to me.

 

[Penk Wolf]

I fancy Yorkhill to win it.

 

[Nando]

Couldn't back him at 9/2.

He'd be better off going for the Neptune for me.

 

[Penk Wolf]

Ruby's confirmed he's on Min.

 

[The Bear]

Still £50.

In free bets. You can't withdraw it.

 

[Penk Wolf]

In free bets. You can't withdraw it.

Stick it all on Douvan in the next.

 

[The Bear]

I did think that but he's about 1/3. So not really £50 then.

 

[Penk Wolf]

I did think that but he's about 1/3. So not really £50 then.

Then on Annie Power. And then on Thistlecrack...

 

[The Bear]

Possibly

 

[Nando]

Annie Power is the worst priced horse at the festival.

 

[Penk Wolf]

Hmm, not sure about that.

 

[Sniffer]

In free bets. You can't withdraw it.

It would be relatively easy to get the £50 out as cash if Min wins. For example

£15.38 on Hull to go through in the FA Cup (no draw) tonight would get you £50.00
£37.50 on Arsenal to go through in the FA Cup (no draw) tonight would get you £50.00

 

[Nando]

Hmm, not sure about that.

She's beaten nothing at 2 miles.

2/1 favourite for a Champion Hurdle when she's not raced over that distance in over 2 years and has not faced anything other than mares in that time.

2/1 FFS! Madness.

 

[slink]

I agree that Annie Power is a terrible price, far too short for what she has achieved and especially in the last few years. I think Min is a terrible price too and is priced up on reputation rather than form, i'd rather back Altior and Buveur D'air.

 

[The Bear]

Ruby will probably dump her on the deck again for the bookies

 

[Nando]

Graham Wylie must be pissed tonight. He's saying Shaneshill is crying out for 3 miles and Black Hercules seemingly going JLT.

 

[slink]

Patrick Mullins said that Black Hercules would go well in the JLT the other day, doesn't think he was ever taken serious for the 4 miler and it was a decision between RSA and JLT. Something about Shaneshill that i don't particularly rate.

Oh and i'm buzzing for next Tuesday, can't wait to hear the roar.

 

[The Bear]

When do all the jockeys get announced, and which horses are going in which races?

 

[Trips]

5 day declarations will be available tomorrow for Tuesdays races

 

[The Bear]

Cheers.
