2024 Novice Chasers

[BookieBasher]

Mr Policeman (Arkle) boosted to 11/1 with 365

Not at all. Looked to have regressed last season. Cheltenham wouldn't be her course. Sending her chasing just screams last resort imo. Terrible price for what she's achieved. A big no.

Why would Cheltenham not be her course?

Didn't look in love with it this year .

Didn't look in love with it this year .

She was held up in a farce of a race and had a terrible prep after a setback and then only running 2 1/2 weeks before. Where she actually ran very well, going the wrong way round giving 9lb to queen's Brook and 11lb to Anna bunnina, all things considered.

Cant judge her liking for a track off one run, especially that one

Allegorie de vasy and love envoi franked her form last season

If they get a clean run at her she's a contender for either the mares chase or hurdle

But they do need to get that clean run with her, so whilst she's of interest wouldn't be investing at this stage.

She was given an absolute stones ride

As were they all, bar the front 2 or 3 during the race.

Personally think everything behind the front two just weren't good enough on the day but that's my opinion of course.

….quite a bit of blue for Giovinco (BANC) ahead of a possible run on Thursday. Into a general 16-1, still 20-1 365.

Mister Policeman is 11/1 with 365 in the "super boost" section on the Arkle for anyone interested... bigger price than anywhere else and with cashout as an option I guess.

[Frankely My Dear]

I've had a nibble but it triggers the cynic in me, why just that horse in that race?

What have I missed regarding this one?

[Ballybeen]

Think Giovinco has been put up on every ‘horses to follow’ on social media, YouTube etc.

He's very inexperienced and has the top two 2m Novice Hurdlers from last season currently rightfully ahead of him in the betting . They probably feel that one of those two will win the race so no great risk on their part.

[FinalFurlong91]

They probably have a bigger liability on the top 2 and are just balancing the book

Reading Nicholls' stable tour on Sporting Life – anyone else tempted by Hermes Allen for the Turners? Even regarding Captain Teague, Paul says: "Whatever he does over hurdles will be good, but he will be some chaser next season. He is as good as the likes of Hermes Allen."

I believe a few on here have already done him for Turners.
