On this, how do we price this race if the big guns stand their ground?
Majborough would surely be fav, followed by ITP
I'd strongly fancy the mare EW if she was a half decent price (and 8runners)
Majborough would be close to evens, maybe 5/4. ITP 3s, Firefox and Il Atlantique 6s. Touch Me Not 10s and Only By Night 12s. Any price the others. 114.8% overround.
Wouldnt surprise me if Majborough was odds on though and Touch Me Not and Only By Night switched in the betting.
Patrick Mullins feels Galopin Des Champs "has to be up there with the greats" after the horse powered to a another Savills Chase success at Leopardstown.
Patrick pouring a little cold water on Willie’s theory that IEP stays at home. Some interesting thoughts on the other horses running at Xmas too.
It’s a video rather than text. That should link directly to YouTube. “Wouldn’t be scared of going 3 miles”. “Has performed a t Cheltenham.” “Wouldn’t be nailing my colours to any mast.”
Really like hearing Willie's views but I wouldn't bother listening to the son. His comments are as inspiring as his efforts on jumpers. I'd go as far as assume the opposite to what comes out of his mouth.
Majborough to win and inthepocket to be on handicap mark protection duty for the turners is my prediction
Sure Henry would disagree. Recency bias. Still think Inthepocket could have something to say in an Arkle. Hope they still go there. Wouldn't be the first time Henry turns up with a chaser in March that's underbet.
I think we can be easily swayed by something of Willie's or Gordon's whereas either Gavin or Henry never mind any of the top class GN trainers, Skelton matching Nicholls and Henderson, with Ben Pauling coming more to the fore, just can't be ignored.
Dancing City form boost with Shannon Royale winning there. SR isn't a great jumper though - slow into every fence. HCH probably come on for the run but disappointing he can't beat SR.
