Arkle 2020

[Scooby91]

The weights would put them close though Scooby.
Fanion effectively won a handicap off 130, getting 12lbs from Southfield.
Brewin gave Southfield 6lb.

He received his 4YO allowance which I keep hearing they deserve to get, and it will level out as they strengthen up.

Regardless of any of that, he had an absoute ton in hand. I'd be backing him all day long in a 2 mile race against brewinupastorm. No contest imo.

Hope they meet soon enough, could well do next time.

Well I don't think Tornado Flyer is what you'd call a 'flashy sort'

Went from in trouble to in control very quickly

Not sure what to make of it, but I’m not thrilled that’s for sure

[Can't Catch Me]

Gordon elliot could have rode him, and he'd have still beaten southfield stone.
Hopefully they meet

Gordon could have ridden Brewin on the same terms and won too.

Have to think he'd be better up in trip?

Out paced then stayed on much better?

Will see what’s said afterwards but will probably cash out

It's a pointless debate, hed never have won like that. Hes a different type of horse,

Anyway. They could meet next time out, and I know where my money will be going.

I agree Kev. Never struck me a 2 miler but obviously Willie knows best. You'd have to think he'd get too far back in an Arkle

I'd be surprised if Willie wouldn't favour further now for him.

Agree. Could be good news for Melon ??

Or Laurina

[Kevloaf]

I reckon Danny Mullins will be on wherever he goes. Townend has Melon or Laurina he'd probably end up on regardless.


I don't think Paul gets the choice as much as Ruby did anyway, so the knock on effect of horses for Mullins may not be as important as it used to be?

[Lobos]

Or Laurina

Don't think Laurina needs good news from anyone

[Scooby91]

Don't think Laurina needs good news from anyone

Because she's a supeeerr starrrrr!

[darlojim]

If Breaken has learnt to settle think he can certainly shake up this market, by the time they jump the first couple you'll know whether hes a bet or not for this race as last time out he just threw the race away pulling way too hard. Dunvegan no slouch in the race either so it will be a nice performance first time up.

[ComplyOrDie]

Don't think Laurina needs good news from anyone

Why? Because you know she's JLT bound?
