    Jumping fences looks a real effort for him

    And there is zero strength in the British staying hurdles division

    He could easily win a good pot or two back over hurdles

    wouldnt be surprised at all if he lined up in the long walk hurdle in a few weeks time

    Unlikely he wins this but at 25s could easily be a trading opportunity
    Was just coming in to say something very similar. Plenty of hurdling UK pots TH can aim at to bring in further money, but he’s not winning a grade one over fences I don’t think.

      • No Christmas entry for Klassical Dream over fences. Only entered in the Christmas Hurdle. That seems to be that then.

        • Wind op for Zanahiyr after disappointing in the Lismullen.

            Nice. Glad there was an excuse. Hopefully it'll make a difference.

            • Langer Dan looks to have a good opportunity today to get back on track. He'll be a lot straighter and he'll love the track/ground. 50's may look decent value come this evening.

                The enormous drift suggests today is not the day and he's being plotted towards something else

                  Probably punters just taking his last run as gospel. They'll be trying today.

                  • Where else does Nicky and connections go with him if he’s turned over?
                    think he could make that mark look a little tad silly today

                      Yeah I'd say for those who have yet to get him onside grabbing the 50s now is the smart play, for me he's need to be winning today and fairly comprehensively to be seen as a genuine Stayers contender.
                      The fact they've put him out again a few weeks after that poor reappearance gives me confidence they still think he can reach those heights, if they didn't believe in him they'd surely lock him away and protect that mark of 144.
                      I think he'll go well today...

                      • Langer Dan……
                        you watch they enter him in the stayers still, and he goes in at 100/1

                        • Looks like a classic Nicky hot air job with walking on air perhaps then?

                              When the skeltons have one lined up for a race they don't double in price like langer dan did today

                              • Someon did joke on here about Langer Dan going off favourote for the 2030 renewal of the martin pipe (or something similar) maybe Ista' as he'll have backed it every year along with the Skelton horse in the Grand annual.

                                Could easily be Fav for the pipe again in 2023
                                maybe the young conditional is interfering with Dan (the horse) in the stables of an evening.
