Punchestown Festival 2022

[Hoopyhammer]

I like the look of Singing Banjo today in the 4:50

[robith]

Had a look and decided a no bet day for me.

[Hoopyhammer]

Why is it when I see a Mullins horse like Dark Voyager running in a race it shouldn't be I always think he's pulling a move.

[robith]

that's a great spot ta Eggs

edit: did the related double too

hi jay numbers - it's when you do a double of seperate races of horses that share the same formline

[FinalFurlong91]

Boyles go 3/1 on three stripe life

That's big enough for me to not care about him having run at Cheltenham and aintree

The Devils Coachman withdrawn ... as expected given the ground.

Glad to have Vanillier in the book antepost now given the reduced place terms.

Annoying for any of those on the 80/1 To Win Today and Festival which looked good value at first glance. Luckily I wasn't.

He definitely wasn't 'dead on his feet' after the last. He slowed right up and popped it carefully and none of the others closed on the run in.
Thats not to say he will get the extra 2f in the GC however.

But saying he was dead on his feet is just way wide of the mark, he was fully entitled to start getting tired the way the race was run as any horse winning a race of that quality would be, but he definitely got the trip.

This

He had the rest of them pulling up or dead on their feet he set such a punishing test of stamina

He was very much entitled not to be powering home

I vever saw the TRV interview but surely no one can be surprised. Allaho was absolutely dead on his feet after the last and bearely got the 3 miles. He's now fav for the King George but if it came up soft I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole round Kempton. Don't be fooled by the fancy Kempton is an easy 3 miles..Tear after year they come home strung out like Monday's washing.

I would have thought he would run Galopin Des Champs at Kemton on his way to the Gold Cup and Allaho go the same way as he has done this season.After all the last 2 races he has won are actually worth slightly more than the Gold Cup

Willie speaking on RTV very cool on the idea of Allaho going to the GC, says he'll speak to CPS of course but he definitely doesn't seem a fan of the idea.

A big thank you to the person who put up the 18/1 boosted treble of TNG, Allaho & Facile Vega. Tried to find the post but couldn’t. Unfortunately I didn’t lump on, but did use a free bet for a decent return - a great spot!

Glad you had a decent return mate, this is actually a good opportunity for me to show my appreciation to all the members and in particular Eggs for the great work he does highlighting prices on the bookmakers special offer thread as well as his contributions on many others like this Punchestown thread. A lot of time and effort without a doubt but as I'm sure has been mentioned by many before me the effort is much appreciated and I offer my thanks

[Benjy23]

Cheveley and Mullins got a lot to ponder to be fair. CPS have got Ferny, Allaho and APT. Mullins also has Energumene and GDC (amongst others)... Antepost nightmare
