    If FTF runs in the BANC they may well go to the turner's and NHC

    They won't mind just taking on stay away fay but taking on both SAF and FTF would be a tough task
    Completely agree. Let's hope these trainers keep In touch!!

        What an absolutely shocking price

        • The JP back from the dead double of Inthepocket and Iroko!

          But yea, 7/1 seems awfully tight. Marine National seems to be being well enough supported in the Arkle imo. Which is nice to see.

          I can see Skelton running Grey Dawning in the Turners, as per the above and his stable tour comment of seeing which race looked weaker. Had a double on him for the Turners and Stay Away Fay.

            Does seem very short. In line with Vega I suppose and they weren't too far apart on debut. Taking no chances.

              Dan also said the course would suit Grey Dawning better on the Thursday as well which I found interesting. All about F2F though.

                Even taking Facile Vega into account, who’s since disappointed twice, 7/1 about a horse who’s a maiden over fences after 1 run, been injured since that run (2/3 months off) is abysmal.

                He has potential of course he does but at 7/1 no thanks. Iroko of a similar nature was still 16/1 when confirmed back in training and he was at least entered in the turners

                • PP have cut Vega to 4/1 for the Turners it seems, he is 14/1 in the antepost section on 365 under the boosted horse.

                      If they don’t aim high with him I wonder if they would be smart enough to go for the plate.

                      Old course more stamina and he stays 3m imo maybe just not well enough for the top level.

                      He’s probably ran to high 140’s there so could still be more to come.

                        Scu was thinking Ultima as an alternative for Apple Away as well I believe

                          Depending on the ground this weekend it would be a negative for anything on soft or worse imo. Only 24 days until the Ultima.

                          That goes for anything running this weekend

                          Not seen many run decent races after this ascot meet then Cheltenham.

                            A negative for anything leaving it this late I'd say.

                              Don't think the stats back this sort of thing up.
                              Especially for handicappers.

                                Ah ok. Wouldn't back anything running now on in personally. Especially on ground as it is. Not really a Handicap man like you though .

                                You do know it's only 26 days to blast off Q yeah??

                                Stop checking the stats......I believe you
