You mean 'where'?

Kate Nash.



So he's been that price for a while, since the DRF I assume?

As I said, it seems a mental short price to me.... and as it's that price right now, it's relevant to mention... I haven't missed a big conversation debating his merits at 8/1 have I? If I have I apologise and I'll go back and read them.... if I haven't missed it, don't know what your point is?

Grammar police alert, you done me there...

Yeah been around that with most firms especially nrnb after DRF. As many have pointed out form looks pretty solid, especially compared to most in market, or maybe not your opinion? Think many of this forum have talked him up since then and been their fancy for it.

Congratulations i guess for being on at fancy prices you seem to have mentioned more than once in the space of a few hours

So what was your point, or were you just being disrespectful?

I feel I'm well within my right to bring up a horse, it's price, the price I have (as its not after timed, its in my diary) and ask questions on my own bloomin' forum without a cocky comment about the price being that for a couple of weeks?

I wasn't actually being disrespectful, and yes I will apologise if you got that from it! I was actually asking as I felt with a guy with your following of prices and Cheltenham was surprised you didn't realise that it was backed in! So get off your high horse, was no malice in my comment what so ever, was tongue in cheek but you seem to be getting ultra defensive over it for some reason?

[Kevloaf]

It came across like you were questioning and dismissing me bringing it up.

If that's the price right now, I feel its relevant, and I wouldn't want other people to feel they can't mention a horse for fear of being made to look an idiot because the price had been like that for a bit.

I don't need an apology, especially insincere... me and my high horse accept it though.

[Big Bucks]

Will draw a line under it if you are happy enough to move on then.

Fakiera and Gentlemansgame were the 2 I took out of the DRF for here. When the latter dropped out I concentrated on Fakiera, then rewatched and think I underestimated Statler and see them 2 rightly front of the market (imo)

Torygraph now being name checked will get a few more followers, one I havent thought much about yet if honest, thought it might have went pipe.

Barbados Bucks has a chance then going down the market nothing else is sticking out to me at the minute, which bring me back to liking the front 2.

Anyone else concerned Farouk D'Alene never got a mention in GE's stable tour? Only Torygraph as a Gigg runner for this.

Kev, what price is High Horse

Seriously getting back to the DRF race where I must have reviewed it at least 20 times now and I believe that Stattler and Mouse Morris's horse both had the run of the race, both settled off an easy pace while they stacked up the field behind, they lifted the pace around the 2m mark and Fakiera was being urged to keep up and had to take several varying positions but of those still in contention at the final turn Fakiera was now forced to take the wide route to gain clear ground, meanwhile the front 2 really turned on the taps from the home turn but the winner is travelling smoothly behind and easily passed.
The front 2 had to be ridden all the way to the line with no let up fighting for 2nd place, in my view Fakiera had to be messed around due to his real lack of pace and covered more ground than any other runner.
I have not claimed Fakiera is a wonder horse and I could not see any of this years AB runners being within a country mile of last years first 4 home and we are both on at double figure prices but to my eye I admit to jumping in again and taking 11s EW to a much higher stake than my previous stakes, I also desperately need him and OB in the Ballymore to place up in a big price double.

Exchange makes this look possible

[Lobos]

I'm getting confused...........of the two D'alene's, which one is out of the Fez? Farouk or Fantasio? Or are they both out?

[Garrison Savannah]

Word was Farouk had had a setback. Where as Fantasio bled last time.

I think I seen Farouk entered in one of the handicaps? So maybe he's not out!

EDIT holds entry in PIPE

Thanks. I'll take him off the 'lost' list then.
