Have added a free £5 bet on Vision Des Flos @20/1 on WH. Huge price difference between them and Skybet (12/1).
A horse a lot of us were looking forward to last year until Tizzard started throwing darts at what race he would go to next rather than having an actual plan. Fingers crossed he gets its right this time, could be a live Arkle chance for which he is best odds 20/1 so well worth taking the any race option for no change in price.
It’s a shame WH don’t offer more free bets! Much better value
Yes HF!!
I really like him, have him @ 33's for the Arkle but have covered him in larger bets like you for 'Any Race'. Think, Kilbricken Storm aside, the majority of the Tizzard novice hurdlers were messed about a bit and we could see them flourish now going chasing
An angle I’m intrigued with is the NH bloodline of Sandmason (sire of Summerville Boy & Black Op). He only really came to light with Tom George’s success with the pair last season. Surely other yards will have taken note and any of his offspring will have been popular in the sales this summer. If anyone could point me in the direction of any further info on this it would be greatly appreciated. I’m as far from a breeding expert as you can be!
What meetings do you guys think Might Bite will take in? Reckon he'll go for the triple crown? He's my favourite horse in training and I'd love to go and see him in the flesh.
We protected him at the beginning of last year. As we saw him in the RSA Chase the previous year, people were just a little bit worried about his mind was quite where it should be.
So we gave him an easier start in that Intermediate race at Sandown, rather than thinking about Haydock or anything like that. As the King George was the project and it’s still very much the first major project again.
Now this time we have to down the £1million bonus road, so we’ll aim to go for the Betfair Chase first and if you win that then you’re immediately the only man standing, so it’s obvious you’ve got to try and he’s grown up enough now.
He was pretty grown up all last season and I thought he was great in the Gold Cup. I wouldn’t say that the ground beat him but a better horse on the ground beat him.
I just thought it was fantastic at Aintree, he was the one horse that came back from Cheltenham that did have quite a hard race. And he came and put up an immaculate performance and I thought he was brilliant that day.
