  • Latest Exhibition never looked happy jumping out of that ground. And has already been pointed out Elvis's horses aren't exactly firing at the moment. I'd write that off and he's still a player for March. Also if anything you'd want to be going down in trip with him not up.
    Luck is a dividend of sweat. The more I sweat, the luckier I get.

      • That was a lovely performance from The Big Breakaway, I was impressed.

        • He's a big dope still. Which is good.
          He jumps lovely and makes ground a lot.
          Hangs a bit to his right and jumps a bit right.
          Blinkers for me and he could be a weapon.

          • Really nice round by TBB.

            Started to worry when he bumped him along between 2 fences down the back but came back on the bridle after the fence.

            • Great round of jumping by TBB and had plenty in the tank coming up the hill. Hit a strange flat spot and maybe jumped a tad right at times. But all in all a very decent debut and this should be his trip for the season now.

              • That'll do nicely, plenty improvement in him too it looks like. Could be a tool of a horse.

                    beat a bunch of twigs
                    schooling session around chelt, probably the the main positive to take away from it

                    • Endorses the Ballymore form a little too.

                      • I don't particularly like the horse but really was impressed with his jumping.

                        Quotes of 8/1 seen ridiculously short to me.

                          Yeah I doubt any of those rivals will be back running in the RSA come March. But the jumping was very consistent and he winged a good few, taking lengths out of his rivals. Positive start but lots of his main rivals have yet to make the track.

                          • 8/1 is very low

                            • I’ve never been a big fan of the horse but that has really impressed me from The Big Breakaway. Had to question if running for the first time over fences r ins Cheltenham was smart but he’s jumped like a 12 year old veteran over the big obstacles.

                              Not sure if I can bring myself to back a Tizzard horse though. As I’ve said plenty of times, for me.. Tizzard is a huge negative for Grade 1 horses. Saying that... I do think staying chasers is his best type of horse to train so I might ignore my reservations and add him. Will let the dust settle first though and rewatch in the light of day tomorrow.

                              • Very happy with TBB there. Excellent ride from RP - they were going a bit slow for him at half way and when he hit a momentary flat spot Robbie quickly acted to let him stride on. Jumped very well, had plenty left in the tank at the end as he should do given the sedate early pace. Can't help but think 3m at a much quicker tempo like an RSA pace will see him to best effect. Looking forward to seeing him in deeper company
