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

[jonthehammer]

Fiddlerontheroof very clearly needs a trip

And softer ground i would say

[FinalFurlong91]

Agreed. Be interesting in the Kauto star if thats where they go next.

I would imagine it depends where the big breakaway goes

[JackieMoon33]

Definitely soft ground for sure. I’m not sure of his trip still and to be honest, I wouldn’t back him over any distance right now.

Will be looking to see if McFabulous now goes over fences - ran well, but don't see any real prospect of turning that result around at an even stiffer track. 2 1/2 looks his optimum trip for now.

Well I got my answer pretty quickly - will go again in the Cleeve. Very surprised at that.

Bright Forecast has been retired. Ben Pauling announced it on today's What A Shout podcast. A real shame as was really hoping to see him over fences this season and had backed him for the RSA.

Haha, I woke up to a text from jono about it and just acted on that.



I have to say, those "remain unbeaten" bets are looking superb now. Definitely made an error in not considering them more thoroughly.

I think that 100/1 double may be my best open bet in any account I’ve got for the racing this year.

It’s nice compensation should 1 of them (god forbid) have to miss the festival as the bet should still be unbeaten by then and, you’d hope, they’d have both run 3 times by then anyway.

Did he not announce it in the Racing Post about three weeks ago?

Yeh he did, I just think he wanted an announcement slightly better than 'I have a cough'

Whats peoples thoughts on easywork? Will he be a 3 miler?

[Bonjers]

He doesn't scream 3 miler for me with the way he travels though his races, but I suspect Gordon sees little point in running up behind Envoi again and to date he's not littered with RSA options, so that is where I expect him to be targeted.

Totally agree with this think he'll run in it but don't think he'll stay so not a bet for me.

[Saxon Warrior]

I’ve always thought the would be RSA bound, he proved his quality when chasing h9me Envoi Allen last year.

If he relaxes better in his chase runs c/w his Ballymore run then he has a decent chance of staying the trip.

Next timeout should reveal a lot more, and 25/1 still looks good value, Envoi Allen, Easywork, The Big Breakaway and Shan Blue (6th) have started well over fences from the Ballymore, and it looks as if it could be a strong line of form.

[EnvoyAllen]

I wasn’t comparing odds Mr Outlaw - I was suggesting 225/1 to select just 2 winners who are extremely short priced even now for 2021 compared to 100/1 to get all 4 selections in your favour in ‘21 and ‘22 is a 225/1 no brainer. It’s an absolute no brainer.

Made me feel even more smug when less than 24 hours later the 225/1 market for that mysteriously disappeared.

14’s and 16’s for those 2 specific horses for 2022, guided by their current prices for 2021, looks a steal.

Come Saturday 20th March, there’s a reasonable chance this forum will be debating yourselves if the 33/1 identical double is worth a punt.

I will absolutely take my 225/1 opportunity for March ‘22.

Not my 15/2 opportunity for 3 months time.


And boy do I hope they enjoy my custom with a market priced like that.

Now, 48 hrs later, just 33/1.

Like taking candy from a baby.

Job done.

[Jorvik]

I backed the 225/1 and now don't seem to have the National Hunt RAB tab Unless it's gone for everyone?!
