Arkle 2020

[Can't Catch Me]

I've cracked and added him Jack. Don't need much on at 40/1 and will have the cashout option with PP.

[Humble Pie]

Yep he's on my watchlist for it. Especially if it came up soft. 40/1 with Paddy.... But only 16's for the JLT.

Not dining at the top table for me and certainly not JLT , are people’s memories that short?

Lol, what? He has strong enough hurdle form and that's not even needing to use my memory- i just clicked on RP.

Ok given first race back for 5 months but ....

Not for me
Place claims Arkle perhaps
JLT no
Just my opinion Jack

Of course it is- i think it's you that's questioning our memories Humble.

As has already been said, he stopped alarmingly, either not staying or issue. Finished race ok today. They wanted to race him back at 2miles on Saturday.

I haven't even punted him for the race, but i think the general view of powers is wrong that the JLT is his race.

Haha sometimes!

I can see him running a big race in an Arkle, but i'd want to see him again first. Not parted with a penny

[Faugheen_Machine]

I'm on Bapaume for the Arkle as well at an average of 57.5. didn't see today's race but definitely see him more of an Arkle horse.

Could be a bit of a dark horse for this.

[Pendil]

Bapaume in to 25/1 now with PP you guys musta scared them!

Olly Murphy is leaning towards putting the chasing career of Thomas Darby on hold after identifying the Champion Hurdle Trial at Haydock as a potential target.

Last season's Supreme Novices' Hurdle runner-up has failed to inspire in two starts over fences, suffering short-priced defeats at Warwick and Kempton.
Although plans remain fluid for the six-year-old, the Wilmcote handler has earmarked the Grade Two contest as a potential target in a bid to salvage his season.
Murphy said: "We've had his wind checked and bones scanned and nothing has come to light. Plans are a bit up in the air at the moment, he is back cantering away but he will not been seen until mid to late January.
"If I was forced to make a decision now he would probably go back jumping hurdles and have a look at something like the Champion Hurdle trial or possibly step him up to two and a half miles over hurdles.
"He has never really looked confident jumping a fence and the last day at Kempton he was beaten a long way out - we are deep into the season and I don't want to be winning a beginners' chase in January."
