Well Gents I'm not quite on suicide watch but it's fair to say that once the festival is over I become overwhelmed with a massive sense of depression.
It's not quite 11 months of 5f handicaps of course but you get my point.
So I got thinking, every year throws up horses who double up the following year, 2016 saw Douvan, Vatour, Cause of Causes and On the Fringe, of this years 28 winners who do we think will win in 2017 ?
Obviously we have to second guess the Mullins army targets, any of this year winners could double up.
One thing I was told before last week was that Mall Dini woudl be a better horse over fences and that chasing was the plan for next year, given his progress this year he could be a serious horse next year and the RSA looks to be an obvious target.
Any thoughts ?
