  • Dear oh dear.

    I know he will improve for the run and all that but that was very very poor from Abacadabras. Being comfortably beaten by Aspire Tower is a mile short of Champion Hurdle form.

    • Jumps quick enough Aba but doesn’t find a lot under pressure!

      • This is a slap in the face! Reality check perhaps!

        • Abacadabras bubble burst (couldn't use the devil emoji).

          Goshen form though haha!

              I personally didn’t think he was that fluent at his hurdles

                • He looked like he'd win it for most of the race.


                  Aspire Tower on anyones radar? Not on mine still - Unibet have gone 12/1 haha - 25/1 available though.

                  • Don’t know what to make of that at all. Seemed easy enough for Aspire tower.

                      JTM is no bad horse. Unexcepted dealt with him easier enough though but he's beaten some good horses himself, and was match fit after winning on the flat recently.

                      • Don’t think Epatante will be worrying about Abra after that.

                        • Would need to see him again with a run under the belt but certainly not encouraging, he should be winning that.


                          Maybe Goshen form not too bad now given Aspire...

                          • Shouldn’t really be allowing Aspire Tower to dictate a race like that but regardless he should have been seeing AT off

                            • Supreme form not looking great.
                              He may improve by Spring and Cheltenham and more than likely will travel well.
                              But the fact he was 5-1 vs 4-1 Epatante before today, was just bizarre.
                              10-1 was ok, and would not be a bad SP. But the shorter prices for him and Goshen were just mental

                                I liked him for the Triumph but can't see him coming on that much...we'll wait and see. Price is rotten.
