The Sport of Kings & Equine Matters 🐐

yeah i would concur with that…don’t think any of the euro horse will be in the reckoning…a second race too far for henry who in fairness has had a great year…there seems to be a bit of value about colonial john…do you reckon he could be worth a place billy?

[quote=ā€œThe Runtā€]Looks like Galway could be off tomorrow along with Wexford. It’s been a disasterous year for the tracks. There has been 34 meetings lost this year already due to the weather. It’s a joke, the ones that do go ahead then end being massively over subscribed and fellas can’t runs for there horses.

Don’t talk to me about it. Our syndicate has been trying to get a run out of our lad for over a month now but the only meetings he’s been balloted in for are meetings that have been cancelled. He’ll hopefully get his first run this weekend all going well but is only out for a gallop.

Tip?

Same as yourself. After a very average few spins over hurdles we’re sending our fella chasing (which was always the goal) in the hope he shows a bit more. Nightmare trying to get into beginners chases though with all the cancellations.

Superb ride from McCoy there on Wichita Lineman. Looked beat after jumping the last but he got him back up again to win by a neck. Very fond of that horse and is a real stayer and should do well this year.

Ryan Moore is after giving conduit a peach of a ride to win the breeders cup(turf)…

Ya, very good ride, they went at some pace. Eagle Mountain looked a cert coming around the bend.

what do you fancy in the big one runt…curlin is 15/8 on betfair…thinking of lumping on…

Not sure pukey, flat isn’t really my game. There was bigger about Curlin earlier in the week, but he is odds on over there according to Big Mac. O’Briens horses haven’t seemed as sharp as usual but I still think between them one of them could upset Curlin. Wouldn’t be lumping on myself but as I said I don’t really follow the flat.

he is now 13/8…got 40 on at 15/8…

I know who i would like to be on though. It’s that bird presenting for ATR. Savage.

Must be some money gone on him. A lad at work got him at 4s last week

he is the american hero at the moment, he beat cigar’s record of most prize money ever won at this last race and as runt said earlier he is odds on over there…4’s is some value…

There seems to decent value down the field though. Ravens Pass at 17/1 and Henrythenavigator at 10’s. Should be a great race regardless who wins.

Ha ha, if i only I had faith in myself!!

henry is 15’s on betfair…can’t see him winning

It’s hard for the European horse coming over cause the breeders cup is never the main target for any of them at the start of the season. Hard enough to get a horse to peak two or three times in the year without adding a trip to America into the mix.

wow tough1 puke

henry ran a cracker too
