      Sharjah is pretty much pace and ground dependant, then again most are - similar to Klassical Dream

      Pace race, the champ hurdle is usually strong, which favours KD more than Sharjah. Ground wise, more inclined to guess it will be soft again based recent renewals. This is why it's so difficult to bet AP unless you have option to cash out nearer the time when conditions are known.

      I feel that KD will come on from his last run, and Townsend will take up the running earlier as soon as the pace drops off.
      Expecting to see KD improve by 4-5lbs today, although I can image him winning by a length holding off a close second pace.

      KD is in need of a strong pace, and slightly more testing conditions, which I'm hoping he will get come March

      • For CS backers I’d be concerned that he’d been beaten 18L by Darasso earlier this year receiving a stone and whilst his last run was impressive, beating Coko Beach is hardly top class form when that one was 43L behind Fakir at Punchestown. I’d be amazed if CS is in the top 3 today.

        • If Couer Sublime wins today I've got no hope of making money in the Champion Hurdle.



          I haven't seen a piece of form worth talking about from him yet. 2nd to Pentland Hills in a race that blew up is pants, and beating a handicapper from the same stable is also pants.


          I also don't care how much Gordon Elliott says he's improved over the summer, because I've never heard a trainer say a horse hasn't improved over the summer unless they've had an injury.

          Just a meaningless comment.



          "oh well, to be fair he's actually come back worse than ever, I'm not sure he'll train on at all"

                  Agree. Fitness might tell so Sharjah for me. Petit comes into it as well. Could make all. Don't fancy KD chances. He could be pulled as well

                      • That's the worst Klassical Dream has jumped since being with Willie. Almost like he has been schooled over fences it was that bad

                          • Sharjah into 7s and Klassical dream out to 10s

                            • Sharjah a terrible price now as he is so ground dependent? Nice if you're on at big odds though. Not many have the pace like he does on a quick surface.

                              • KD could easily have picked up an injury there. I wouldn't be having a penny on him after that showing.
