February - Who is the BEST BANKER?

[Kevloaf]

Surprised to not see Kilcruit not have more votes - I thought that run was exceptional at the weekend.... at least this guy doesn’t have to jump anything so in theory less risk of anything bad happening

That'll be based on a lot of backers of Sir Gerhard

I guess it's because of Sir Gerhard? I expect Kilcruit to win, but would not be shocked if SG did. His form is excellent too. Market's got it about right. I would be shocked if Monkfish, Envoi, Chacun, and to a lesser extent, Appreciate it were beat though.

I went for Envoi the " Marshine " last time , and changed it to Monkfish this time round., Looked very good on sunday., Slick , a proper Banker ..

Patrick made a couple of comments post race that sounded more like the horses in front of him stopped which might be tempering enthusiasm

[Quevega]

91 voters.... Quevega too special to possibly get inolved though.

His opinion worth more than ours.... so it's make a mockery of it.



Apologies if you have, but you almost certaintly haven't in some sort of meaningless statement that you feel makes you special

you though, obv.

The special one voted yesterday
Didn't comment though.

When the seagulls follow the trawler.....

It's tough between Envoi, who will likely scare off opposition, and Monkfish, who has thrice accounted for what looks the closest competitor

[The King Pimm]

I was split between Envoi and Consertiesta. I can’t see any horse troubling Envoi but think BDD will probably go to the MH if she goes to the Festival which may mean Consertiesta has to be at her best to beat her.

I don’t intend to sound like a madman or wind anyone up because I’ve got nothing to back this up other than a doubtful fear that Monkfish will get beat. The last 2 RSA’s have been really close finishes between the market leaders and even though Monkfish is odds on, has been amazing so far this season, has no obvious weaknesses I just have a nagging doubt he will get collared on the line if he gets into a battle with TBB or Eklat D’aire too early. Monkfish likes to ride prominently and will probably want to have nothing in front of him when they turn the bend for the home straight but I think TBB or ED will be vying for that position too. What horse I don’t know but maybe a surprise like If The Cap Fits, Sporting John or Fiddlerontheroof leaves it really late to pounce on the outside like Champ did
