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

[charlie]

Obviously people will read it anyway, but this one is a bit bananas isn't it? Battleoverdoyen

We haven’t made a final decision with this fella, but I’d be very interested to see what he’s do if we dropped him right back in trip to two miles. The Fortria Chase at Navan is an option. He travelled over to Cheltenham better this year than he did last year, but I thought he just didn’t get the trip in the RSA Chase and a drop in distance might just suit him.

Jesus, Battleoverdoyen for the QMCC. 2020 really has been shite

....Galvin still 22-1 with Hills boost for NH Chase (17-1 a/r), into 10-1 with BV.

Willie got that wrapped up with Aione hasn’t he lol?

[Lobos]

All horses must have a minimum BHA rating of 120 to participate. Horses must have run in at least two chases and must have finished in the first four in a chase staged over an extended two miles and seven and a half furlongs or further.

Galvin has already ticked once box so he'll know (or at least be told) Galvin will need to go up in trip

Which means if Cork is his last race before the Fez he won't be qualified......unless they have fitted an additional long distance Novice chase into that meeting which would differ from last year. I'm sure he's aware of the rules.........gulp.

Fucking Gordon Elliott.
Mr Potatoes and paint, can't read nor write or understand qualifying criteria.
Silly twat.

Brilliant trainer and lovely fella though.
Just had a bang on the head once or twice.

Had to read it three times, kept thinking I'd misread it!

Me too. BOD was subject to very lengthy debate over RSA vs NHC last year, now he wants 2 miles.

Galvin still 20s with Coral for NH Chase

Excellent, thank you, took some of that as well

[Middle_Of_March]

I am hoping he has the class to go down the RSA route. Without taking anything Nicky says too literally - 'he looks a very exciting prospect for novices’ chases'. Personally I think 66/1 is an excellent ante post bet.

I really really like the horse.

In fact outside of the obvious ones we’ve all got like Envoi and Shiskin, I’m pretty sure DD both any race & NH Chase is one of my biggest bets for the whole festival.

Amen MOM. Can’t wait to see what DD is capable of.

Just a thought...maybe because of Covid and time missed, they have changed Q rules regarding NHC?

I thought somebody on here said recently he had already qualified but thinking I must have imagined it
