Arkle 2019

ComplyOrDie said:
Same here, think he has improved for every run but the pace of the Arkle he'll be long behind before having any chance, due to his jumping, nothing else, he clearly still retains the engine.

Fully concur. I think LR has Ankle stamped all over him. In fact he's my biggest fancy for the festival thus far.
 
Us And Them is a solid yardstick. Hardline beat him 10L backed it up with another good run against Getabird. 65/1 for the Arkle compared to 8/1 LR. Mad price.

I can't see Hardline in this. Im very sweet on him but think/hope he's JLT bound.
 
Yep but at 65/1 I'm taking the chance. MK could end up the JLT horse...

At 65/1 you can't knock it, but I think MK will be Gigginstown's runner in this, I think he loses, but he will be their runner. Hardline has good form lines with Voix Du Reve, as we have discussed in the past so I am happy to see him run the solid races he has, but VDR is pretty weak and Hardline hasn't suddenly come in for an abundance of money...yet, there is no strength behind the pair just yet, but I will be keeping an eye on him in the coming weeks, with regards to the markets.
 
I'm not put off by the lack of money at this stage. MK isn't good enough for an Arkle there's every chance they switch Hardline and MK original targets imo.
 
I really like LR, but being put off from backing at the mo but the potents of the DDS switch up

Le Rich should be fav but Joey didn't exactly land much of a blow at Cheltenham last year.

He didnt land much of a blow anywhere after Leopardstown in February.

The niggle is that he is mopping up prize money while Gordon and Willie bide their time.

They have pushed out a lot of other horses in the process too....Mengli Khan, Defi Du Seuil, Paloma Blue, Voix Du Reve, Getabird and others!
 
Lots of activity across all markets for Mullins and Elliott horses.
 
There's that 2M 1F Beginners chase at Fairyhouse on Dan Moore day that I think Saturnas won last year. Could be the starting point for CE?
