2025 Novice Chasers

[ComplyOrDie]

Had every chance to dog it today.
And he did (Firefox)
InthePocket looked a difficult ride and was hanging to his left most of the way.

Ran with credit. Quicker ground he beats Ile Atlantique, IMO.

Inthepocket disappointing given the race was set up for a closer like him.

[Zachx02]

I still refuse to be fooled by Ile atlantique, if he goes to the Arkle he'll finish out the back of the telly

[Eggs]

….Ile Atlantique a best 10-1 (Fred) Arkle in the immediate aftermath of that win.

[EnvoiAlien]

ITP still has an issue,the way he hung throughout and stopped pretty much before jumping the last,I'd like to know what the "Small issue" that kept him off for a year was,I'd have good money that it was a suspensory and that horse is still feeling it,would explain the long break between his last 2 races as well.
Well done Ile Atlantique backers,I'd fancy him for the RSA,not sure about the Arkle being his race.

[Lobos]

You beauty. Thought he'd do that today. Chasing is the making of him by the looks of it. At least Paul has a ride in it now.

[Runragged]

Tongue tie and chasing working wonders for the horse.

[HoldenTheReins]

Paul's Arkle ride sorted then

Firefox is a fucking skin tag COD.
I recommend removal.

None of them are beating Sir Gino so I guess it's irrelevant.

I think Firefox could place though!

I'll keep!

[Carnage at Taunton]

Not at all sure what bearing that race has for the Arkle.
Ground looked a bit desperate.
ITP nowhere near as good visually as last time imo
As Q intimidated,he certainly made it hard for his jockey!!
Winner was good but I wouldn’t be rushing to the Arkle market.

[Stormez]

Nothing for Sir Gino or Majborough to worry about in there.

No the 2 five year olds and Sir Gino in particular look like much better horses.
Firefox did what he does, he's no grade one horse.
More a handicapper.

[FinalFurlong91]

Was a good performance from ile atlantique

Not so much from Firefox who jumped poorly

And inthepocket who jumped averagely and hung like a rusty gate

He's finally beaten a decent field

Firefoxs jumping errors meant Paul could set a steady gallop from the front and the race was over at that point really

Inthepocket was very dissapointing

[Runragged]

May be worth keeping on eye on the HDB yard. Five beaten favourites now since the start of the year and just two placed including the odds on Monty's Star.

If it’s soft or worse , otherwise no imo.
