        Cheers for the insight EnvoiAllen, what do you make of the the bad scope early in the year and now again?

        Guess like ourselves they can pick something up any time but would you think it’s coincidence or a reoccurring respiratory issue? Granted we can only go off what’s in public domain just want to gauge your opinion

          RPRs since Supreme…

          174
          175
          177
          167 - Aintree (feels generous too)
          163

          This was reason suggested taking him on few weeks back …something feels wrong

              The 163 should be taken into context in that it was a ridiculously slow race but he finished like a train as the below link shows. 112% finishing speed with 3 consecutive sub 13s furlongs to finish, while not pushed out. No other jumps horse in training could do that IMO.

              Simon Rowlands takes another look at the protagonists for hurdling's most prestigious prize following the absence of Constitution Hill.

                yep, judging on those ratings imo is absolute nonsense

                • How can he go from the disappointment yesterday to winning a champion hurdle in 2 weeks?

                    Vautour has done it before the Ryanair.

                    Binocular rose from the dead before winning one.

                      • Not me of course, I just got 10/1, which was plenty.

                        • I must say he’s one I’m avoiding, even if he turns up on the day. Just doesn’t smell right

                              JP and the Hendo lot had a right touch.

                                Little bit late on this one, but sent my parents a screenshot of your post and they very much approve of your choice - I'm none the wiser
                                Really nicely shows what a diverse bunch of individuals we are on here though!
