King George 2021

[That Horse]

Thanks guys, big day for me. I used Tornado Flyer at 50/1 for 4 roll ups for the festival too.

Superb stuff

I'm going to put up Tornado Flyer for the King George, currently priced up @ 50/1 with three main bookmakers.

I thought it was a very encouraging seasonal debut in the John Durkan at Punchestown. He stayed on nicely to finish 5th, suggesting a step up in trip is required. He has been tried once over 3m but I'll get on to that run in a bit.

I believe there are some key factors for Tornado Flyer to be seen to his best. First off, and as noted above, the step up in trip, he's been outpaced enough over intermediate trips to not be able to land a blow, but has, on occasions, and as per the John Durkan, stayed on well enough to suggest a step up to 3m should be given a shot. The main key thing with him, IMO, is going right handed, and although I wouldn't categorically say he can't go left handed, after all he has won two races doing so, I do feel his form right handed is better than his form when going left handed, so a trip to Kempton would be right up his street.

With regards to the one try he had over 3m, this was going left handed at Leopardstown, and it was his first try over 3m, so I can forgive him this one attempt, where he was soundly beaten. He is by Flemensfirth, so the trip should not pose a problem, though he may need a little cut in the ground to be seen to best effect, however he has performed well, and won some low class races, on better ground in the past.

I have absolutely no idea whether the plan is to bring him over for the race or not yet, but I feel he's a good E/W play at a big price, should be come over.

Only just seen this!

Very well done indeed CoD. Apologies I'm so late, but I haven't looked in here recently.
