Champion Hurdle 2021

[darlojim]

People get touchy whenever Epetante is mentioned in a negative tone.

If Sceau Royal would have won everyone would have been back on the bandwagon.

Shes a top horse, all I'm saying is she hasnt beat anything to warrant the plaudits shes receiving

Shes beaten a champ hdle field very cosily last year and her only new opposition this year are the up and coming novices who are yet to prove they're at her level. Are you expecting 3 or 4/1 still for her?

[Hardy Eustace]

Feel sorry for goshen and connections.
Really not sure where they go from here.
He’ll be better in bigger field with a stronger pace but that’s literally the only positive I can think of.

[Kautothegreat8]

No one's being touchy Kauto.
Just surprised at your comments.

Look.... I've backed her at bigger prices so obviously I want her to win.

No way would I be backing her at her current price. Goshen is clearly amiss so that is a boost and IMO is the only reason she should have contracted in price.

Who or what do you want her to beat to prove she’s top class?

She was 4/1 ?

Her form this year does not justify her being the price she is now

I said still...

[Kautothegreat8]

Ok I get I'm in the minority here but I'm a realist. I'm going to stop talking about and just hope she wins.

To me 5/4 is way too short but everyone is obviously free to invest there money as they please.

I'm allowed an opinion

Or, just not up to open company. Bubble burst, move on (to bashing Epatante apparently )

You actually believe that's the true Goshen.

I'm sorry but I've got to laugh

I have no idea what you're on about pal.

[Kautothegreat8]

I have no idea what you're on about pal.

Not surprised really.

You seem to want to right horses off for one bad run.

Defi's second season was a disaster if you remember. Horses aren't machines, they're allowed to come in and out of form.

Its horse racing pal

Dare I say ....... Epetants novice season

[Bigfish]

I think that Goshen may have a breathing issue. It wouldn't surprise me to soon hear that. He was up front pulling for his head jumping OK then just petered out. If anybody thinks that's his true form then good luck with your punting.

Haha and you think me fancying Defi Du Seuil (which has no relevance in a CH thread) proves that do you, after not one but two poor performances!!You are clearly disappointed about Goshen pal so I'm moving on.
