2015 Triumph Hurdle

That was impressive. If the horse was trained by Nicholls he would be 2/1 now.
 
ive just watched Beltor again and O'brien is holding him back from start to about 2 out and even then didn't ask for much.

He is going to be a massive contender if he lines up for this race and I think 8's is a huge price. To me that was visually as impressive as anything else I've seen from a novice hurdler this season!

What price do you reckon he would be if he wore pink silks with green spots and was trains by someone called Mullins?
 
I think he could have beaten Bivouac by more than 14L if Tom O let him go sooner.

PC beat the same horse by 14&1/2L as well.

I know who I rather be pon this race, with a bit of e/w cover as well.
 
I liked what I saw today.

I like to be contrary. The Mullins, Nicholls, Henderson media obsession can work in our favour.
 
Sorry to disagree guys but dont see Hargam or Peace and Co losing any sleep over Beltor,no chelt track experience and not same class either, I dont think it will run anyway and even if it does its not for me!

You are not alone Iain. Well done to the guys on a big prices but he would still only be about my 5/6 pick in this.

I thought he was a double handful, though the pace was a bit slow and was pulling TO's arms out from the get go.

PC and Hargams form could be judged over Karazak, I don't think Hargam will win.
PC and Karazak both had Bivouac behind over 2m1f, (PC won by 14 and 1/2L). Beltor pulled 14L clear from Bivouac just before the last and over 2m, what would it have been over 2.1?

I think he would easerly be 2nd fav if he was trained by NH, no?

It should also be remembered that the run of P & C against Karezak and Bivouac was very clearly a teaching run, had BG given him his head the 14 length margin to Bivouac, and the 3 to Karezak could have been a lot more, I've managed to get a few quid on Beltor at a decent price but I still think P & C is the most likely winner

Totally agree with you on PC with the teaching lesson and the most likley winner, but I just don't see Hargam winning. Karazak must have a chance if Hargam does right?

I have had a small stakes bet on Karezak, originally in a double with one that's now a non runner, I was only really going for a place though, I think, bar a fall, he can't beat P & C

Who would you put ahead ?

Peace & co - yes
Hargam - yes
Top Notch - maybe
Petite Parissienne - no
Kalkir - no

Gwencily Berbas - blue on oddschecker. Don't even know this horse :)
