    He could well eclipse the price that was just paid for Ginto. I doubt they’ll be many who won’t want to bid on him for a crazy price now.

        He’ll have to offer something crazy to secure a private sale. If he goes through the ring then it could go through the roof. I’m not in anyway saying he’ll be as good as Douvan but when money is no object, plenty will take a chance on him and won’t want to miss out.

        • Purchased by Bective Stud supposedly, which is basically the Morans again, I believe. 500k the price, so I've seen.

          • I thought the Holden's owned him and planned to keep him?

            Suppose money talks...

            Edit - Sorry just seen you are right CoD! Blimey the Morans are going to be rivalling Cheveley Park at this rate, Spending that €300m plus sale money well!

                Very interesting indeed broken down like that and very good reading for me being a backer of Al Boum, Shiskin , Saint Roi and Sire Du Berlais. Rounds off a top weekend.

                    Hard to keep on top of what Lobos backed though..... it's a mystical list that none of us are worthy of seeing.

                    No doubt it's profitable though. The ultimate after timing

                        have noticed it too DB. Sadly Oddschecker doesn't seem to be as reliable as it use to be. A similar thing happened over summer with Boylesports the odds would fluctuate with past prices.

                          In the evenings even though some bookies have prices up for the following day the outer screens all show as SP so looks as if none of the races are priced up - its annoying.

                            Yeah I thought Sir Gerhard must have been found to have only 3 legs earlier... must just be an oddschecker glitch, noticed it a few times before in various forms.

                              Good Afternoon all, Ista has come to me with an idea of running a tipping competition for some early season races, I have duly obliged. To try and mitigate the risk of any selections not being priced up, there will be a list of races for November (and early December) and a list for the festive period. There will be a separate
