2016 Ultima Business Solutions Handicap Chase

Kruzhlinin has run right handed 7 times and finished 22111221

Left handed he is 60241P244117307

He doesn't need to go right handed, but I believe he is a better horse going that way.

:encouragement: and numbers justify that
 
Top weight running today ?

Weights up 5lbs min.

Think this could cut up a bit. Had a small bit on Golden Chieftain at 33s. He may not get in and is now 11 but previous CD form and Tizzards seem in good shape.

I'm disappointed that Jonjo has opted for this race for Beg to Differ because I'm not sure he can win it but I would have been very confident had he run in the Kim Muir.
I'll have to back him anyway though....
 
The good doctor with a runner near the bottom of the handicap :confused:
 
Southfied Theatre - has he completely lost his form or do you think PN has him ready? 18/1 is massive for a horse that has never lost by more than 1&1/2L at this track other than his 6L defeat to DP last year.
 
I've been going through this race tonight and I can't find a standout bet anywhere. The one I'm sweetest on currently is Morning Assembly…anyone got any thoughts on him?

Heard they were pleased with the mark.
 
The Crabbie’s Grand National is the long-term plan for Morning Assembly,” Fahy said. “I was delighted with his run at Fairyhouse. You would have to think he would come on an amazing amount for that effort as he was never off the bridle and we never really pushed to get him fit. We used that race to get him fit and it did. He had been off for almost two years and he wasn’t under any pressure, so hopefully is back to his best. “He is not too high in the handicap at the moment so we are thinking of going for one of the handicaps at the Cheltenham Festival and then on to Aintree. He is the Gold Cup and the Ryanair Chase at Cheltenham but we will have a good look at the handicaps as he seems on a good mark at the moment. “He is also in the Betfred Grand National Trial at Haydock Park (February 20) which we have considered but if he ran there he wouldn’t be able to go to Cheltenham and I think the owner would like to take in Cheltenham and Aintree with him. I won the Grand National Trial with Nuaffe (1994) and would love to win it again, so it is always an option. Morning Assembly is best-priced at 50-1 (Paddy Power) for the National but as short as 33-1 elsewhere and Fahy believes the son of Shantou has a great chance at Aintree if he gets suitable ground. “I think he is exceptional on soft ground,” the trainer continued. “He beat Don Cossack over two and a half miles on goodish ground so he is capable on it but he wouldn’t want any jar on the ground. When he was third in the RSA Chase it was good ground and I think he just hasn’t got quite the pace when it is like that whereas he can really cruise on softer ground. “He got very jarred when he was third at Punchestown on his last run as a novice and had to miss last season, so I wouldn’t want to run him on that kind of ground again. “I would say he would get the trip fine in the Crabbie’s Grand National and is such a good lepper although you never know how they will take to the fences at Aintree. “I hope we can get to Aintree with the horse 100 per cent, the right sort of ground and a decent weight. If we do, I think he would have a good chance.”
 
Thanks OV, sounds like he may be pretty well tuned for this. I can't see much else that I like.

Un Temps Pour Tout has potential but hasn't show much yet. The rest to me seem as if it's just a case of who's on a going day :confused:
 
Morning Assembly wouldnt want it to dry too much bust is on a feasible mark.

Audacious plan hasnt shown much since getting beaten by Heathfield at Punchestown but will have only 10 1 with Jack Kennedys claim and Curtis horses coming back into form
