  • Great to see him back. Just hope he gets to the Ryanair fit and ready and pummels everything into the ground again. What a wonderful sight that would be again. Fabulous horse in his pump.

        • She's actually carried more weight than him today as well. So quite an impressive comparison for the mare.

          • Allegorie de vasy took part in a race

            Allaho had a nice jog round, essentially a racecourse gallop

            I wouldn't be reading anything into times at all

              Absolutely this. These time comparisons mean very little most of the time and can confuse the hell out of punters. I take no notice.

                    And to my eye Allaho put a hell of a lot into that performance. Not having him out for a jog

                      Now available at the same price as Impervious, who won’t run….

                        Would Willie run so many also rans if allaho gets there?

                          They are taking a risk there. Stupid price imo. Imagine what price he'd go if he kept up his 100% DR record tomorrow.....8's maybe ??

                            I'm all for Allaho turning up and winning like. It's what most want to see. And on his day he's unbeatable here. I just thought he looked tired at the finish yesterday and I'd be keen to see him run well again next time out. Or not and then back him for the Ryanair after anyway haha.

                            Was also impressed with ADV in general. But for the Mares not here.

                            I've backed Saint Roi so I hope he runs.

                            ​​​​​​​Sir Gerhard should go back hurdling. Most of the rest must be likely runners though. Bronn and Saint Sam other Mullins horses that I think want this trip but don't seem to be on the radar for this week.

                            Mullins has so many top class chasers now he can't not run a bunch in these races. He could be properly mob handed here. He has mentioned Blue Lord for the Champion Chase though actually. He's not good enough for either imo but I guess he'd have less numbers in the CC at the moment, and a clear best.

                            Appreciate It is another that I'd have thought may be worth a look to go back to hurdles and try the Stayers. But Willie doesn't seem interested in that route.

                              I also know what companies are getting at when they advertise saying "buy one get one free"

                              It isn't free

He'll be 10 in March so won't be as good as his previous wins but if he is fit he should win this in a canter. For the record that's hyperbole Kevloaf. He won't actually win if he canters.

                              Apologies if my hyperbolic statement caused you hours of stress.

                              Anyways. Good luck to Allaho and the team today. Would be great to see him back on the track and hopefully winning "in a canter".
                              No stress - it's good to pull people up on generic cliches or hyperbole

                              Hyperbole adds to a story....... lets hope stories pay out in March ....

                                I thought this too, thought he was dead on his feet to be honest
