      For beating trees in a Tipparary G3 ?
      He could lap them and still be 14/1 for me...

        Trees?

        Chosen Mate is a contender for the QMCC according to some



        Half a stone in hand, ought to win on zee bridle though. A price cut would be disappointing to see given the time of year, but not unexpected.


        Of course, he needs to win well to justify it. I wouldn't get excited about 14/1 now if that's the best price about him - that price assumes he has already put horses like this to be... which he hasn't yet.



        Looking forward to seeing the prices. I wonder if he'll be priced and talked up as a future CH contender - I know "we" think a lot of him on this forum but that doesn't always relate to the wider racing world.

          Chosen Mate will be earning his Champion Chase entry beating Put The Kettle On instead..................bollocks to that. Don't want that to happen!

            Why would Chosen Mate run, I don't get the entry.
            He went chasing some hurdle prize money in the Summer and was beaten half the track and took in a flat race a few weeks ago so has been given a fairly odd campaign.
            Would it not make sense to wait for a suitable chase ?

            • If Saint Roi comes out of the race fit and well, it would affect my fudge factor by about 25% so a cut from 20/1 to 14/1 wouldn't be outrageous.

              • Ahh I read it wrong, I thought he'd already been clipped to 14/1.


                Depending on what price he is on Saturday I might back him ante post instead again at 20/1 before the run. Although I think he's 14/1 TWAR - which might be over looked on the day.

                  Think he is already 14's in places which is why I think he'll drop as low as 10's even though he clearly shouldn't!

                  Just looked....he's already 14's with Boyle's.

                    I had to read your earlier post twice because initially I was convinced you were making a case for Goshen!........

                      Haha, always price related.

                      • Saint Roi has 6 to beat on Sunday including Chosen Mate and Beacon Edge. Tidy little race but should be a comfortable win for the Champion Hurdler elect.

                              Plenty of support for Beacons Edge this morning and Saint Roi a bit of a drifter, will be an interesting race
