Not sure if I am allowed to start a new post and not sure if there is one like this, but whilst looking at a few markets tonight I saw a few that I thought are interesting...
Black Hercules at 7/1
After winning the JLT, priced at 8/1 for the Ryanair, this must be a likely target. If he ends up in the Gold Cup he'll probably start double the price, but for 1pt less for the Ryanair to have at least a run for your money I wouldn't be devastated.
Altior 3/1
I just mentioned in the Arkle thread that if he gets confirmed for it he'll probably shorten. If he was going to shorten to 4/1 then 3/1 any race gives you a little bit of comfort in that he might get switched back to hurdles where he would be a similar price? (Personally I tihnk 5s is worth the risk right now but still interesting)
Barters Hill 14/1
I know there is some big love for this beast on the forum, and 14's does seem really good for any race as he could potentially turn up in the JLT, RSA or 4 miler... Surely single figures whereever he goes?!
Faugheen 7/4
Interesting because if he goes to regain the CH, you'd assume AP doesn't, leaving him to just beat up the Mullins 2nd/3rd strings and if he gets aimed at the World Hurdle, he has NO opposition at the moment. I think the Mullins/Ruby/Ricci factor would see him punted off at odds on ... so as long as he turns up I think you're going to have beaten SP. Both targets seem viable and Mullins holds the key in both and they won't want to beat him themselves?
