Never going to happen in a million years

One fall and Henry already has the CH winner

Will be GC now that Allaho is the Ryanair horse

CPS Lucky 31, Sir Gerhard Supreme, Quilixios Arkle, Ferny Hollow CH, Allaho Ryanair and Envoi Allen Gold cup?
 
Anyone seen a price for shewearsitwell for next year
 
Having a wee scan at the prices don’t think il be getting involved far too short at the min couple of months off me thinks then back for more
 
Does Bob Olinger definitely go chasing? He’d be the one id be keeping for the Champion Hurdle if they decided to send Honeysuckle chasing

100% going chasing.

Built to do it and Henry has Honeysuckle for the CH. Plus you can say Quilixios will likely go Arkle now, at the owners have Gentmansgame in the ‘RSA’ and BO has always been considered a quick horse. So putting all that together he’s going did the Marsh and will be going off odds on if he makes it there
 
On that note Gentlemansgame 50/1 for the RSA looks huge. Which I’ve already taken some of

Would Honeysuckle not go novice chasing too? I don’t see why not now that they’ve already won the CH. I believe she’s already schooled over fences.

Connections did mention to Nick Luck that she was purchased with chasing in mind ....

Originally you would have though they would do that having been bred to chase but she’s 7 now, will only be running 2 more years you’d say before they go breeding with her. They won’t want to step down to the Mares Chase, then yeah they could go Arkle and QM but would you do that when you could dominate the CH for three years?

Id say the Arkle will be harder than the CH next year with AI and BO goes Marsh.

If they were going to go chasing they should have gone this year and CH last year. I just think that they will want to look after her and keeping her at hurdles now they’ve trained her intensively over the last year to be a slick hurdler that they will keep her here. Plus this of the price pot difference between CH and Arkle is a no brainer
