Ruby hasn’t got a ride in the Arkle.......

Thats crazy considering his record although suppose no Mullins hot pot!

[Kevloaf]

He has never ridden Duc Des Genivres on track, so I suppose you can see WHY they'd leave Paul on.

If I was on Ruby for top jockey I'd be sick right now.

[kinloch brae]

I think Power is decent jockey booking (he was jocked up when the horse was pulled last time) for Paloma Blue but he will need to be a miracle worker on the jumping front.

Few taken out but it still looks like being hot on the front end.

Well Chacun Pour Soi would have won the Arkle.

Cheers Willie

Yes he would have I think. Regarding Ruby - I think he's avoiding chase mounts until later in the meeting. He may not see a fence until the QM Champion Chase

Yes, the style of his win was impressive but you would expect the whole Arkle field to have hammered that sort of opposition.

Maybe not the whole Arkle field.

Beating Stooshie by 46L is pretty good... he's been close to horses like Ex Patriot, and he wasn't that far behind the market leaders.

Interesting to see how Chauc Pour Soi and Duc Des Genivres careers progress.

The arkle is that bad this year, in terms of quality.
Every horse is drifting

Loads of red on oddschecker for all races. Seems to suggest that the recent prices were not great value.

Bar the Grade 1 winners....

Glen Forsa wins. I reckon.

Exactly...the time to judge the quality is sometime in the future I would say.

[Kevloaf]

Glen Forsa wins. I reckon.

The 3 mile handicap chaser that beat a boat over 2 miles?

Taken on for the lead. Fluffs his lines.




If he does win though, I hope Mister Whittaker wins 40 mins later

Glen Forsa has a really good chance
