If garlic warrior didn’t exist/wasn’t such an enigma I could fancy icare allen off 139 here tbh.

Gaelic Warrior backed in again following weight released.....now 5/2 with PP/Betfair. Gamble of the festival.Comment

It’s probably a good thing that the Boodles is on day one now as it prevents Mullins building up too much momentum. Imagine if he’d already had a load of winners on the board, Gaelic Warrior would be going off odds on.Originally posted by Lobos View PostComment

True, but he could still go into this on the back of a Supreme, Arkle, Champion Hurdle and Mares Hurdle four timer...Originally posted by JackieMoon33 View PostComment

A few years back he’d have had a good chance of being on the five timer. I’m not even sure he’ll have two on the board from those races this year.Originally posted by Istabraq View PostComment

Yes it's not a likely scenario but neither is it impossible.Originally posted by JackieMoon33 View Post
Honeysuckle is a near penalty kick and she will appear in many multiples, Supreme, Arkle, CH and MH could easily/are likely to all head Irelands way, Gaelic Warrior in race 6 could well be a crucial leg in those Irish multis...Comment

If the Irish win those first few races on day 1 there'll be an almighty gamble going on in the ring on course too - especially if punters have money in their pockets and are 6 Guinnesses deep by then...Originally posted by Istabraq View PostComment

Odds on the Irish are more than 6 Guinnesses deep by the last race (NAP).Originally posted by MadeinJapan View PostComment

Aye, if SG/DD, Blue Lord and Honeysuckle go in, GW is gonna get pumped even harder than he is nowOriginally posted by MadeinJapan View PostComment

Will clearly depend on how the earlier races go but this Gaelic Warrior is gonna be a fascinating SP. The books will still have over 20 races to go so far from bust or bang….But he’s gonna go off short isn’t he! I’d guess circa 6/4f assuming no major boil overs earlier on the card & Willies firingComment

Any anoraks out there know what the shortest priced handicap favourite has been over the years? Genuine question as I have no idea.Originally posted by Splinterboy82 View PostComment

Unsinkable Boxer was a monster gamble but doubt he was shortest SP. Story here if you’ve not heard of it:Originally posted by JackieMoon33 View Post
A couple of yrs before my first festival this - would have been some atmosphere in the ring this day!

Doesn’t really answer you question but I recently had a look at the shortest winning SP over the last 5 years & it was The Shunter at 9/4 in last years Plate.Originally posted by JackieMoon33 View PostComment

Checked this race the other day and it was 15/8f - Ashkazar in 2008.Originally posted by JackieMoon33 View Post
Didn't check other races.

Champion Green getting 125 could make it interesting... surprised they've let him in so lightly for one that's evidently (in my view) been campaigned with a mark in mind. He's 90 on the flat and arguably value for that.Comment
