      Sublime horse.

      He'll take some pegging back on better ground at the festival.
      Don’t think he will have it all his own way this year

        • Allaho didn't appreciate it when people suggested he wouldn't win

          His entire career before the spring hes not looked the same horse he is in march

          Expect more improvement when he lines up at Cheltenham

          And he goes there again as the one to beat

              • Allaho is lay of the festival and I refuse to be persuaded otherwise. People on twitter waxing lyrical over that... deary me. Also, Appreciate It is a complete pig.

                • Clearly still going to be competitive but he just lacks that exuberance these days. Was pushed into the last to keep up his work but with GN horse Statler in behind and Appreciate it once again disappointing he didn't have to do too much to win. He'll go off fav in March but I'll definitely be backing against him. Not sure the quicker conditions will be to his advantage at the Fez either as he's definitely lost some toe.

                    Not sure about lay of the festival when he's still 3/1 ?

                    • Those who liked him before the race will still like him and those who didn't like him unlikely to change their mind. At least it keeps this race interesting. He can be short and provide value elsewhere.

                      Looked to be slower than the Mares but weather is bad and wind could well be worse now.

                        Bookies not that impressed. Another race that is really up for grabs and I could see a few outsiders getting into it.

                          What price will you offer me?

                          • Think he did it well enough. Was just another stepping stone to the Ryanair so anyone expecting him to look anywhere near his best is being unrealistic.

                            I’m pretty confident come March he’ll ping around on the better spring ground, and let’s be fair, he can run 10lb below his peak & still be too good for the field.

                            • I'd not backed him and was keen to be against him but 3-1 NRNB is daft.
                              He runs his best races at Cheltenham for sure.
                              The others have to improve to beat him.
