2023 Novice Chasers

[Carnage at Taunton]

Good run from AC as well, good for backers of Gerri Colombe

Mullins bingo is definitely a little clearer after that isn't it?

AI should go Turners, GDM should go NHC. Reckon Sir Gerhard joins AI in the Turners and JDB steps up for the BANC, maybe with Kilcruit. First time I've actually played Mullins bingo with some confidence.

Yeah, easy.
El Fabiolo has a great shout, the rest are playing for places.
I'd probably give Appreciate It a small shout and maybe Dysart but the rest, No.
Don;t fancy GDM for either race also, not on him though so those on at the early season prices have a nice shout. He just looks exactly what he is, about a 155 horse. The trip may bring improvement but I have my doubts.

….Potter 16-1 next years Ry & 33-1 GC with PP.

….now 8-1 & 12-1 respectively.

Yep, agreed.

155 horse might be enough in the NHC mind, depends what turns up.

Edit... Forgot Sir G. I'd still give him a chance.

Yeah, he'd be like a samcro in the turners.

Mighty Potter
Sir Gerhard
Appreciate It
Banbridge
Stage Star

Surely they're all nailed on for this now.

I'm a massive Mighty Potter fan and he is by far my biggest single winner but don't think we learnt much after a no show from JDB. He's now shortened and I can see 5/4 which is ridiculous considering he may have to face Appreciate It and Sir Gerhard.

[DenmanSacre]

Hold my hands up - I was wrong about Potter. Much more mature and professional this time. Rightful favourite for the Turners.

JDB didn't turn up. Poor jumping and travelling in snatches.

GDM running in as usual.

[Many Clouds]

I'm thinking now
Arkle - El fab and DD
Turners - Appreciate It
Brown's - Sir Gerhard
NHC - Gaillard Du Mesnil

Anymore that go do so as 2nd string.

Appreciate you’ve identified the looseness of it yourself, but Tommy’s Oscar hated Cheltenham and hates travelling. No way he ran his race that day.

Why does he hate cheltenham? how is there no way he ran his race that day?

[Winging The Last]

A negative there to the form of The Real Whacker

bad mistake first and then another bad mistake when getting back into the race at the 3rd last, not the best of rides from Sam Ewing.

His owners and trainer said so. Said they’d never go back. Messed up numerous jumps too. Stacks up too if you look at his comparative ratings.

You thought he ran his race?

Is this a joke ?
I guarantee Indigo shows improved form at the festival.

Looks like the one they wanted to win today, won IMO.

I'm not arguing against your opinion, but when a horse is thrashed, people tend to try find an easy way out/excuse.

Who knows..
