Arkle/Marsh/RSA/NH Chase - Novice Chasers 2021 (new)

[Altior]

Several bookies streaming races free now so for those keen to see Envoi can do so without having to place a bet...

The quick back and lay for a 5er at the same price on the Exchange to get a free stream does the trick for these sort of occasions.

Personally surprised at the negative comments regarding Latest Exhibition. Talk of the NH Chase for him is wide of the mark at this stage. He's going to be better than Discorama was in my opinion and I think that Paul Nolan will keep the jockey in the saddle. Latest Exhibition already has good enough form at LESS than 3m for me to think he wants the extended trip.

Whilst I can appreciate he may end up not good enough for an RSA, I think it'd be madness to assume the RSA isn't the target after that debut.

I completely agree Kev. Don't understand the rush to assume NHC as a target when the RSA is going to be the favoured target for all classier types, which LE could well be. Same is happening with The Big Getaway, which admittedly is probably down to what Patrick said, but I think the RSA will be very much in the forefront of their mind.

What are people thoughts on Hold The Note for the NHC. Second season novice like Galvin. Haven't really got time today to watch back his races before he runs and decide if he would want 3m6. I dont think he would be good enough to win any other race but the NHC so good chance they could step him up again.

I'd be looking at the Hennessy for HTN as an early season target.

I think it's Quevega is interested in him for the NHC - he was 9 lengths behind Galvin in the novice handicap and I'm not sure the step up in trip would be enough to turn that around. He's a horse I like.

Didn't seem to stay the 3 miles at Warwick in January when beaten by Two for Gold. Interesting to see how he gets on today

What are people's thoughts for Cedarwood Road's potential target? Bit bloody early to tell, would be interested to hear peoples thoughts though

Big move for Felix Desjy with Unibet. Into 12/1 from 16/1 this morning for the Arkle.

Marsh would be my guess but that's all it is.

That was rather taking from Shan Blue - quickened up really well and matched it spectacular jumping all the way from four out.

[The King Pimm]

Shan Blue was impressive again there over 3m and with a penalty against decent opposition. I couldn’t find him priced up anywhere before the start for the RSA or NHC??? Shame as he will be a short price after that performance

[Brital]

I thought Shan Blue looked very good in the 3m novice chase at Wetherby - his jumping was impressive and economical.
He has been added by a few bookmakers @ 25/1 for the RSA.
must admit I’m tempted but not sure how good those are he beat. Hold the Note was once we’ll regarded I think but it was his first run of the season so may have needed it?

Ha ha I was desperately looking for a bookies that had him in their market as the race matured but couldn’t find one.
what you think of 25/1?
