Being beaten 40-odd lengths twice with RPRs of 114 and 124 isn't getting you into a 5lb band in the Close Bros.
The only chance of getting a rating to date is off his fall. I presume he would be running again to reveal sufficient to be rated 140-145 in the UK.
I really like OYG for this race, but UK ratings are everything in the Close Bros.
I would analyse the opposition, race standard ratings etc in his next race (pre-race) with an idea of backing him in this, at the end of that next race, if I judged his irish rating against the opposition to be around 138-142.
If he overdose ir next time I suppose the Plate is the alternative. Probably a better bet at God moment would be 'any race' at 16/1. Another trip to the WH shop.Last edited by Saxon Warrior; 20 January 2020, 09:58 AM."Journeys to Glory, breathing in his head".

Originally posted by Philg123 View PostHe won’t be running again due to needing time between his races, he should get into the race as I am good friends with the owner. They aren’t expecting anything and just want the day out. He has some good form in the past but has had his issues and nearly died earlier in the season.
How is he going to get into the race?"Journeys to Glory, breathing in his head".

This Saturday there is the 2M4&1/2F Novice Handicap Chase at Cheltenham.
I like IMPERIAL AURA for this, rating 136, needs to win to get in to this race, so I am hoping that happens and the 140-145 sweet spot is achieved.
More interesting is Samcro, Dallas Des Pictons and Galvin entered by Gordon to assess handicap marks. Standby by 11am tomorrow when the weights are produced."Journeys to Glory, breathing in his head".

With the exception of Samcro, the other two have run like handicaps were always the plan.
