    Me. I was planning on doing the forecast with him and Le Richebourg since they were so in love with finishing 1-2 together.

    With LR out, he's on my radar in a wide open year

Only 10/1 any race because wherever she goes she will shorten considerably. You were looking for value and 40/1 with NRNB is value as the stable have her and DDG 5/1 matched pretty closely given she'd get 7lbs. Personally I'd have her over Kalashnikov, Paloma Blue etc. all day long if she came here. Even the market leaders aren't bombproof are they? Glen Forza was a 3 mile handicapper the week before last and Lalor looked really disappointing last time. If you didn't get a big price about DDG, then Hardline is probably the bet - but value? Prav would be much, much shorter if she comes this way.
      Oh yeah, shes a biggish price, the race is awful, and it won't take a great horse to win it.

      Her form though isn't very good. Beating Baie Des Iles over 2miles, when BDI is a stayer and was having her first run since before Xmas. Also giving her a good bit of weight. BDI is 142 rated. She can only beat her and did so 14ls so god knows whats in the locker, so the 40s is worth ago i guess.

            Last price matched at 6.0, I'd guess there's nothing in it. I'll put £20 at 18.0 and see if it gets taken.

              Any update?


              Can't cash out anyway but this will slap me in the face like a huge 90's Tango advert.

                I put £20 up for 20 minutes but when I went back on the market he was back in to 6.0. / 7.0. it's nothing to worry about imo.

                • Ted Walsh just put in a word for Pravalaguna in The Arkle - not greeted with much enthusiasm. I know the feeling! But at least an indication that she may be coming here...

                      Thanks WC.

                      My best result in this race.

                      Not confident though

                        40/1 NRNB is a bit of a no brainer isn't it.

                        I thought it was at 33/1!

                          My confidence has grown in the past couple of weeks, as always he improves from February onwards and this year is definitely no different...his recent work at Hobbsys was very good. The only negative this season was his Sandown run which in hindsight was a real mistake which Kayley admits herself...far too soon after his previous run which was as much the problem as the ground that day.

                              • Good money for Hardline again this morning 9/1 now top price, but WH still go 10.88/1 (with a boost) in their 'Any Race' market.
