Got very little to do with distance.

Must have some bearing surely???

Depends on manners of victory slight but, if you beat the short priced Turners fav then you probably go Turners like.

Yep agree. Staying on from the last and getting up on the line then maybe BANC. But jumping from fence to fence and showing a lot of speed will scream Turners.

…looking at Saxons race planner, the only horse to win this and at the Festival is Monkfish (BANC). Monalee won and came 2nd BANC. A few winners have placed in Turners so it’s a bit of a mixed bag.

I could be wrong but I don't think you'd have a sub 2/1 Turners fav running in it most years.

….not sure what price Mighty Potter (RiP) was at this stage last year but he won this and went off odds-on for The Turners where he finished 3rd.

GCW surely a bet at 11-2 ?

Huge risks with GW going LH & presume it’s Paul’s choice that is pushing our price? But he has to ride GW

Only issue is Patrick riding ….,why oh why owners let Willie do this is beyond me ….hes a good amateur, but way better jockeys free (Danny?? Even Rachael given owners, tho get they might not want her learning about the horses)

[Benjy23]

Patrick is clear second jock now isn't he. Which I agree seems a mistake...

Should be 5th jockey

He literally only wins on steering jobs

105th !!

No wonder Willie second strings don’t win at Chelt

The one time PM couldn’t ride in Covid, Rachael picked up more rides & ended up top jock…..why haven’t they learned ??

Its blatant nepotism

[Benjy23]

It's new for this season though isn't it? Last year Danny seemed to get the pick ahead of him in most cases. And often Hayes and O'Keefe did as well

Don't get why that's changed

Danny doesn’t look to be high up list at all judging by first race tomorrow

If I was a big owner of his I'd be telling him I wanted Danny on my horses if Paul was on another

Having patrick on is basically giving the horse a 5lb penalty in a grade 1

It’s more than that - huge diff with too 5-6 Elite jockeys & others ….so it’s almost 10 pounds
