    The fences are completely different.
    The french hurdles are more like our fences.

    • Would be a good performance Melon heating Fakir giving Weight. Thought Melons first time out record was poor but it's very good. Classy hurdler. Just hope he takes to big ones. Backed him again today as he could halve in price should he win.

      • Melon is the first horse out this season that I’ve got a really decent bet on for Cheltenham, hope he takes to fences. Looks a very tricky race to start out in, it’s certainly no egg and spoon easy novice

        • I have backed Melon for this last week with free bet, but if wins today could go short fav. So had another go with cash.

          • that was flawless

            Obviously Fakir D'doudaries got weight today, they run them off levels in the arkles is that correct?

            • Got to factor in the weight,
              But he's only 4.

              • Laurina it is

                Glad to have backed Melon 'any race' could end up anywhere, although can't write him off of the Arkle because Fakir had experience in France.

                • Very good from fakir. Dont think anyone should lose hope on melon there 1st time up. He was beat narrowly by a good one.

                    Maybe melon needs a bit further.

                          • Will Fakir get the weight allowance in the arkle?

                                No. 8 pounds swing if they both line up in the arkle. Would make them closely matched.

                                They'll prob rematch sooner than that.
