  • Not good market signs for Saint Roi, PP went 8/11 a few minutes ago even after Beacon Edge had come out!

      No one's betting today. Weather is shite!

      • Phew


        Can't get carried away but for me, he's just shown he's easily better than a handicapper - which is a good start.

        He's run away from them, without being asked.

        • We like that for a first run back

          • happy enough with that, only his 6th run and a couple mistakes can only help him learn. Seemed very slick at the majority of his hurdles. Got another 2pts on at 16s

              • That was fine.
                Encouragingly, he confirmed he'll be better off a strong pace to my eye.
                So as long as they go for the champion, he'll have a shout, even if he gets beat in a small runner Irish grade one over the winter.

                • Was a moment where I thought he may get turned over

                  • The jockey will get Saint Roi beat, I hope I’m wrong but would be so much happier if Barry G was on him

                    Jumped well for most of them. Don’t mind a champion hurdler hitting on, but I didn’t like how he was steadied up towards the last.
                    I know, first race, get the job done but I want to see him take advantage of these races and learn

                          Not with you at all there.

                          Mark Walsh is excellent.

                                Will have to disagree until I get a chance to watch it again.
                                I’m not a fan of him so will always see the negative
