2022 Triumph Hurdle

Of course they have to go for it. He's unbeaten and becoming battle hardened. You can bet he'll still be a price come Cheltenham Friday.

….20-1 Hills Specials, best price 16-1 elsewhere.

Most definitely they have to go for it, I've been really impressed with him but today i was holding my breath when he hurdled, maybe that was just me then !
 
KS can just sit and stalk off any pace and use his pace from the last. He's got everything in my book. He's deffo the best English shout v the Irish and England have a decent record in the race. Be Interesting if the Juvenile maestro Kot agrees .

Currently maybe. I'd say he won't be for much longer.

We need a name please....don't leave us hanging:biggrin-new:

Lol, Skeltons is the obvious one.

2nd and 3rd won well since.

3rd won the Triumph trial too, so not a bad race. He beat them comfortably + beat Fil Dor in France...

Adagio and Allmankind won the race he won at Warwick so the signs are good.

In this World. Maybe. Has a bit of catching up to do v KS re experience though. 4 runs versus 1. KS definitely sets the standard ATM

You asked for a name and i still managed to forget to put his name in the bloody reply. Can tell it's the day after my work do!

Almost certain they are not running ITW again until the Adonis.

Am I reading it right on the racing post site that the race in this world beat fil dor in was a flat race?

No mention of them jumping in the in running comments
 
Who likes Vauban for this?

Me, backed him when I bought the jumpers to follow book. Rich Ricci says he's the most exciting purchase he's made since Saldier which I know isn't enough to go off but the book, that and the footage from him run were enough to sell it to me. He got his jockey out of a lot of trouble in that French race and I feel the slightly longer distance of the Triumph will be to his advantage.

Where can I find the footage of the horse running? I'd like to get a bit of cover for Fil Dor but struggling to find Vauban on YouTube.

Wow that's a statement. Cheers for your insight. Yes a deal was already done before his listed win so must of been happy with his performance that day. Agree jockey made it as hard as he could!
