More blue for Shishkin today. This is incredible. Has a maiden hurdle winner ever been backed into 4/1 6 weeks before the festival?? Apart from maybe Melon i certainly dont recall it. Crazy. just glad to be on at 14s.
I was born in Sandbach
I remember looking at the 14s and thinking that the winning distance flattered him as the 2nd was eased and he was pushed out... if I knew he'd now be the price he is I'd have taken it, but I don't know how anybody could have predicted this gamble...
He must be a mega hype horse somewhere..... he wasn't hyped that much on this forum compared to other horses this year, let alone histoically.

It's the clock boys, Kealy mentioned it the other day.
Fastest time ever on heavy for last to the line or something, and faster than most who ran on good

Anybody backing him now must be hoping for Heavy ground then
The best final furlong in heavy, to me, means he absolutely relished the conditions....
Otherwise he's potentially going to be the best hurdler we've ever seen?

Could happen, I guess
4th fastest on the course worse ever ground out of 22 (and a lot of those were on better ground or something like that)
It was on the shout show thing that RP do.

Fair enough.
Makes the sustained gamble a little more understandable.
Will be against the grain for now.... keep getting tempted to double up with him but the price has completely gone so I keep stopping myself.

Someone else mentioned it about Newbury that day
The Hobbs horse in the handicap hurdle was carrying 9lb more than Shiskin
Won eased down in just 2 seconds slower

Maybe they got the timings wrong that day
Wouldn't even be that surprising with this tin pot sport
