  • Even though I'm on Lalor at a big price and haven't backed DD at all, I don't really get why Lalor is the shorter price now.

    • Can’t have dynamite dollars, think if the real lalor turns up he’ll beat him easily like at Cheltenham

      • Fair enough, not sure id agree that Lalor will beat him next time, but we will get to find out. I think DD will be very tough beat in a strongly run Arkle. Had quite a few bets go down on this race but still got Le Rich and CE running for me, but I am worried about DD more than any other horse (especially cant have Kalashnikov as per post earlier in thread ive layed him at 6/1 on the exchanges, he is still a terrible price for this in my opinion at 7/1)

        • Agree re Kalashnikov. I think it’s between LR, CE and lalor

          • Common me fellow intelligent fat jockey members, that was a piece of jumping perfection, LR was outstanding today, obviously got to show it at mecca and I have to admit that this could me an Achilles heel, hence why I think Kalashnikov or Lalor and the big dangers, but a bit of perfection works for me.

            • I am 100% still in Lalors camp...he as always looks much sharper in his work after the turn of the year...nothing new there. And whilst I do believe the Aintree course will always bring out his absolute best...I strongly think as long as he gets to Cheltenham in one piece he will take all the beating. Le Richebourg was impressive again today and could be the one to chase him home.

              • Kalashnikov will not win this as long as I'm breathing. If I die before March 12th, he still won't win.

                  • Should be an exciting race, if I had to pick one of them it would be CE because he’s only run once he hasn’t had the chance to post performances like LR but I’d be pretty confident that he can. He was rated the best over hurdles and he looks to have taken to fences, he can travel over 2 miles and finds off the bridle......I’d hope he’ll continue to be a decent price for a while so I can keep topping up.
                    Might do a few acca’s With both LR and CE....

                      • Yeah, mine is.

                        They'll surely go NRNB this week?!

                            They'll push him to 33's or 40's.

                                I got rid of him on the machine, when he went stupid short after one run.

                                Only backed him because btype were so out of whack with their price.
