2017 RSA Chase

[Kevloaf]

Totally agree KSS. This horse is made for fences and he was strongly fancied in the Stayers last season - heavily punted and running a brilliant race to finish second. I'm sure his price will get nibbled at as the festival approaches.

I think we've all mentioned that at some point over the year. The 'Mouse-factor' is going to be a huge factor and I won't be surprised at all to see him in some ante post tipping columns over the next 6/7 weeks.

I have taken shorter prices than he has been twice but always in a double... I don't have a single on at the moment, so with any money returned tomorrow I will have a bet on ADO each way. I don't think the RSA market will change much tomorrow so no great rush tonight.

I grabbed 14s early on last season for the Stayers but got on Thistlecrack later on so was nice to have the 1-2. I havent followed him as much this year but I think that might end up changing

ADO is my biggest AP bet. Had a scare with his bleeding at Leopardstown but connections seem bullish it was a one off. Have bet him at 20s, 16s, and 12s and in a couple of doubles - amazed you can still get him at decent prices especially given the field is getting weaker by the day.

Think im gonna have to get on him of I have a winner tomorrow. Welcome GS mate

any more news on Might Bite yet??

Hi Nicky, MIGHT BITE looked sensational last time until falling, have you ironed out his jumping and will he handle Cheltenham?
Things are going well again! He’s just been around the indoor school and you won’t see anything jump as well as him in your life. He hasn’t seen a steeple chase fence since Kempton but he’s done plenty inside and we’re just trying to keep him happy and give him confidence to do his own thing and he has been very good. The acid test will be when he has to jump a proper fence again. He was quite sore after his fall so we had to tinker with him for a fortnight or so but he’s over all that now and I just need to get a run into him as I’d hate to go into the RSA off the back of that fall. Who knows, me might even leave Cheltenham out of it this year, I don’t know. It’s been frustrating lately because we can’t school on the grass because of the frost but it’s set to be better next week so we should be able to get him going and we’ll step his work up too. He looks good and is moving well so will hopefully get his career back on track before long.

Good update mayo, sounding more promising...

[Kevloaf]

Good update on Might Bite. I'd be watching very closely next time out then. I do love the potential on an animal that "if it all goes right on the day" could be different class and I believe that true of Might Bite. That Kempton performance has me very excited indeed. I quite like the time angle in comparison to the King George (and Thistlecrack).... I believe Thistlecrack is an exceptional horse, therefore elevating Might Bite, rather than crabbing Thistlecrack because of the Might Bite time.... I may be wrong, but I prefer it my way!



16s on ADO when Might Bite may not turn up, is 16/1 about a Gigginstown no 1 in the RSA, ... same price to get top 3 as the fav is to win. This is a horse with an incredible engine and to steal my own line from above, "if it all goes right on the day" I can't have Bellshill ahead of him! Plenty of other horses that are being minded for the future that would be of interest too that may one day be better, but this could be a very impressive winner on day 2

[Garrison Savannah]

Thanks for the welcome guys - happy punting

[Kevloaf]

Boost for Might Bite with Royal Vacation winning off 143 by a long way....?

[Faugheen_Machine]

Yeah. Nicky will be smiling after watching that.

Champers on Ice looks like he needs further than four miles already

[Kevloaf]

^ Yep

Just took 33/1 for Royal Vacation too.... 14s with 365 and 33s with Sky...

[darlojim]

Massive boost for Might Bite there, i would be piling into him if i knew he was certain to take part.. damn u Nicky!

[cwright23]

I have been hovering over the button on mite bite for weeks, Nicky said he may not of gotten over the fall mentally from Boxing Day.. If you think the time/run was a fluke.. Today proved it wasn't.. If Nicky came out tomorrow and said he runs here.. He'll go off fav

I think people would need to see him jump around again before he was made fav against a Mullins/Walsh fav with form in the book?

I think Hendo is sure to run Might Bite if fit. Must be one of the most exciting horses he has based on what we've seen today?
