    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    Thanks both👍 So wasn’t a successful partnership……so why have a horse with Nicky now?……Nicky’s getting on a bit, there are up and coming UK trainers like Pauling, Murphy and obviously Skelton….. RR’s trainer is Willie and he has mentioned in the past that the Prize Money in Ireland is better...

    2026 Champion Hurdle

    Workahead …….…impressive 7l winner over William Munny last year before finishing tailed off in the Supreme (there was money for him 15/2) …….not seen since, yet entered in the CH hurdle against 160/170 horses …..

    2026 Champion Hurdle

    On a serious note……whatever they decide to do with Cons Hill, then I hope the horses best interests/welfare come first Saturday reminded us that national hunt racing has high degrees of risk and personally I’d rather he never see a hurdle again, as the confidence IMO is gone (horse and jockey)...

    Win Today & Festival

    But it’s ‘Lossiemouth’ Lobos, one of, if not ‘the apple of your eye’ so why not be greedy? In for a penny methinks and enjoy her while she’s around👍

    Win Today & Festival

    Probably, but could be less if Sir Gino or/and The New Lion blot their copy book beforehand……..Sir Ginos hurdle jumping?…..The New Lion over 2m? If Sir GIno races against The New Lion before Cheltenham then there could realistically be only one challenger to Lossiemouth come race day And if...

    Win Today & Festival

    Whilst I understand the maths of the prices of Lossiemouth for her to win the Irish Champ Hurdle at the DRF and then either the Cheltenham Festival MH or CH, then I am not so sure the ‘Probability’ of which race she runs in is necessarily factored into the prices……and because of this I feel the...

    Hopefully Townend rides Bunting and leaves Danny to Storm Home and win the race again?

    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    And his Dad said Pertemps didn’t he as the target Q? Can’t see how being out the back of the telly shrieks Coral Cup winner? Denise thinks the run was awful but it was a graded race so what was expected beforehand? Can’t be looking a gift horse in the mouth……so got to have some more @33/1 surely?

    Just as a further consideration around the handicap - introduced last week by the BHA, there is now a rule where horses cannot compete in a handicap if they are out of the handicap by 15lb

    So you dont think she is flying too high if targeting the Triumph Jim ? Betfair showing 32/1 now from 40/1 earlier

    2026 Mares Hurdle

    Like a trader playing a stock based upon intel eh…….youse gonna be busy up until NRNB methinks ! 😳 The only difference though to trading Lossie in both races v’s a stock is that Lossiemouth may not win either race ! 😱
