PADDY POWER PLATE Handicap Chase

[Outlaw]

Had Shan Blue added for this with Sky gone NRMB (8/1), I'm in the doubtful stayer camp and would take him on if they went the hcap route and to the Ultima, if however they came here you could be looking at an Allaho type effort in a hcap potentially and he'd be smashed up on being "well in" if nothing else. Seems mad they won't utilise his mark to win some sort of pot before being forced into graded races for the next couple of season.

Eight to One though....for Shan Blue?

Unsure if that’s one of your video squeals(My Drogo style lol)
Ryanair obvs been mentioned as the aim but wouldn’t blame them for taking “a pass” this season & bump into Allaho when he’s actually being consistent and looking the dogs bollocks.

if he came here your telling me he wouldn’t be punted off the boards like the Shunter was last year? Look how daft his price was getting for the Hennessy and bar maybe an Irish blot he’d be miles the fav.

Lot better price and a race he'd probably win.

We can agree on that , granted posting about two horses at single digits in hcaps antepost is shithousery 9/10 so I’ve left myself open to criticism but I’d make an exception for these pair.

Hahaha, literally was yeah - well spotted!

I do see your point though, I suppose there just isn't loads of juice is all I was thinking... given his previous festival runs

Made me chuckle when you said the best handicapped horse in training was over rated.
Obviously in the context of the Ryanair, it's fair enough.

Fucking oddschecker.
Got him at 16-1 for this.
Was just about to 10 point NRNB it.
actually got excited.

Can leave the 8-1 for a bit and see if it moves.

[Quevega]

I'd say Torn and Frayed is a fair price at 16-1 NRNB.
Almost certain to run if he gets in, depends on penalty.

Won very easily. Was thrown in off 131 against horses that are probably handicapped correctly over 2m4. Hopefully be in the late 130s but Nigel doesn't help himself thanking the handicapper.

Gabynako the one I keep landing on for this race. Looks wide open and not 100% sure if he'll run here but it's a bit of a minefield... if his jumping holds up, he'd have a massive chance.

[nortonscoin200]

Wouldn't surprise me if Gordon sends FLOUEUR here instead of to the Kim Muir - that's assuming he has a choice and his mark doesn't rule him out of the KM.

Floueur has a good profile for the Plate and would certainly have a decent chance in what looks an open race.

It would also make sense as Gordon would still have Frontal Assault and Grand Paradis for the Kim Muir.

Only firm to quote Floueur for the Plate is PP/BF at 16-1 but without the nrnb safety net.

[Stormez]

Really struggling to find a way into this race, hoping for some inspiration from someone on here!

Only backed Alfa Mix for it so far, but anyone heard whether it’s his intended target or not?

[Spectre]

Gabynako is the one I'd suggest Stormez. I really like his profile for the race, and he has the 'plot' feeling about him.

A 150 chase rating in Ireland so a 152/153 here do you think?
