  • Hitman is still overpriced for me in this race.

    It's highly likely that Haut En Coleurs, Conflated and Fakir D'Oudairies don't run in the race, so you can take out 3 ahead of him in the betting already.

    Then you have Ga Law, who is way, way too short, IMO. He's already finishing behind Hitman by 1 1/4 lengths when getting 17lbs from him!! He should be double the price that he is now.

    French Dynamite is also tied into that form, and again, why is he shorter than Hitman, based on them form lines? He shouldn't be.

    I can accept some of the others ahead of him, the likes of Shishkin (obviously), Blue Lord, Fury Road and even Janidil, but I have Hitman around what price Envoi Allen is (10-12/1) rather than the 22/1 that is available.

    Anyway, I've just had a small E/W top up on him.

      He's just a horse I can't warm to I'm afraid.
      I don't know whether he's not good enough, doesn't want a battle, has been poorly placed, no idea.
      I want to like him but can't.
      I remember having a fair bit on him in the Scilly Isles, he was tanking down the back straight, hit one hard and down, all he's done since then has disappointed.
      I'd love someone to tell me why I can't like the horse.
      Anyway, I couldn't back him with counterfeit in this...

          I appreciate he's not one that you'd want to put your life on, or even expect to beat a Shishkin, however, his price is not correct compared with others in the market.

          He has the beating of Ga Law (18/1) & French Dynamite ((14/1) on a line through Ga Law) and both of them are shorter than him.

          He is over priced, whether he manages to grab a place or not, IMO.

            You don't like him because he's ungeniune

            Not sure why people keep backing him

            Unless you are going place only may as well burn your money

                • Tempted to have a little dart at CPS here. I think the jockey change to Danny is a huge positive. Maybe not enough, but will likely be my play for a bit of interest.
