  • They were thinking going Novice Chasing with him but maybe they'll have a rethink now. I do like his profile for the race and at 6 in March he's a good age. If he does go the Wholestone route and is successful, he could end up one of the top rated horses come March. I like him. As you say, at 66"s with cashout, what's not to like .

      The only thing I'd do is wait until he got an entry before pulling the trigger.

      He's not going to be high profile enough to get cut beforehand you'd have thought?

      • If Twister puts him in in the two and half mile hurdle on New Years Day there's a fair chance you'll get a run for your money Lobos. If he doesn't cash it out.

        If he then enters him on trials day I'll probably add him to my book.

        • Latest Exhibition's owner has confirmed he is going back over hurdles.

          • Can still get 25s (28 boosted) with Ladbrokes, looks to be coming in with a few others now

              Nice one pointing this out, duly added at that price! Cut to 14s with 365!

                Coral still 25s as well.

                • I'm interested to see how Indefatigable gets on at Wetherby on Saturday. She was being aimed at this race last year but they switched to the Mares' hurdle. She'd obviously have to bounce back from a pretty disappointing season last year but she has that all important course form. Most likely a place chance at best but one I'll be keeping an eye on.

                    I think she’s got a great chance on Saturday, plenty in her favour.

                      Yeah, for sure. I've backed her for that and did get her priced up for the Stayers with Bet 365 @ 50/1. Think I'll just back her on Saturday though for now.

                      Have backed Thomas Darby for the Stayers though at 33's. Prices aren't as nice as they were last year but he is being aimed at it this year and again has that course form.

                        Totally forgotten horse.
                        I had him last year at 50s I think, less options for me this year but have added in a small patent at 40s.
                        I feel he’s a horse that one solid performance could see that price crash to single digits so it makes sense to get him onside now…

                        • Zanahiyr was alright today but looking at B365 he is only priced up for this one and the champion hurdle and I honestly can't see him hitting the frame in either. Someone correct me plz.

                            He'll make a lovely novice chaser next season if he jumps a fence like he pings a hurdle. For this year, barring injury to the likes of Honeysuckle and a few other top championship horses, I don't see him being close in either race. Managing his mark for the likes of the County or Coral may have gone out the window after today also. Lovely horse, just not top level just yet..

                            • To be fair the Champion Hurdle doesn't line up as the strongest race outside of Honeysuckle. Credible challengers to her are hardly lining up, and possibly the only one in Ferny Hollow is seemingly going over fences.

                              That was a nice enough run yesterday, and it'll be good to see how he fares outside his own age group as the season progresses. Ask yourself the question if you owned him, so surely he'll be campaigned towards the Champion Hurdle.

                              • Have to say Paisley has been one of my fav horses, but think even given away weight that was not good enough. Looks finished in the stayers hurdle division. Just none of that fight which we used to see.
