  • Crambo got going way too late there. Stayed on very strongly. Still hoping he can be there or thereabouts in March.

        Jockey had him way too far behind, first try at 3 miles i can understand the caution but the way he won at sandown in heavy ground over 2 1/2 miles he should've been ridden prominent

          Trainer will get his way now. Pertemps it is.

              not a chance
              giving 12lbs to an emmet mullins rogue
              finishing like a train
              stayers hurdle all the way lobos

              • He was still just 5 behind turning in, I'd say he probably just got caught out for Slate Lane kicking on as he hit the straight, wouldn't dampen too many stayers bets though imo

                  Trainer wants to go that route. They normally get their way.

                    Trainer probably wouldve preferred that route at the start of the season.
                    lobos that was an impressive run
                    he's give 12lbs and 15lbs to the front two who are not 124 and 127 horses
                    he's been given an absolute shocking ride
                    I will make my full case within due course

                    • You think the result there will dissuade the owner from wanting to go stayers route ?

                      Edit-should've said thats to Lobos.

                        I agree that is a possibility...................hoping not the case. But if he does go Pertemps I'll be on him too.

                          Depends on his mark I suppose

                          • Sorry for Crambo backers but I think he needed to win comfortably today to stand any chance in the Stayers. He wasn't good enough and I just don't see him being able to run to an RPR of mid 160s which is what an average winner of the Stayers runs to. I know backers will still have hope seeing him close the gap at today's finish and therefore think the Cheltenham hill will suit but I would focus more on how he wasn't able to make up ground today in the straight and only closed the gap at the finish when the leaders tired, and these leaders won't be in the same class of horses that he will face in the Stayers.

                                He's a saddler maker same as gerri colombe.
                                Hit a flat spot at the wrong time of the race, hopefully the jockey will have learnt something from today.
                                Whether it's the stayers or pertemps at cheltenham he's a contender, he just needs a more prominent ride nto.

                                The best stayer hurdlers look like they hit flat spots during races, i really like him
                                They know he stays now it will be so different next time
