Al Ferof retired, not that he was ever a live runner for this though he was 4th last year.
Winner of a cracking Supreme with Sprinter Sacre second and Cue Card third
I was so excited before his novice chasing season and genuinely don't think I say a horse to follow list for that 14/15 season that didn't involve this horse. Everything seemed to point to him being a major force over fences but it just never happened and I kept hoping they would just revert him back to hurdles. I couldn't touch him to be honest. I think he'll have his odd win here and there over fences but i'd be amazed if he ever won and even came close to winning a grade 1 over fences.
Am I stupid to think GLV still has a chance in this...
Still same price (and generally bigger) than Dodging Bullets... who he beat today and SURELY DB is better over 2m than GLV is? I know Nicholls says he wants further...but that might be because he won a terrible CC and he doesn't want to be embarrassed
I think 33/1 for GLV is really fair, good in fact.... going to be forgotten over the winter but back on better ground, jumping nice and low and slick today... I like him.
I wont be having another penny on GLV over fences. He jumps far too low at his fences for my liking and looks like an accident waiting to happen.
I piled in again yesterday, the horse now owes me fortunes.
Where's that cliff thread.....
