Albert Bartlett Novice Hurdle 2018

SAMCRO said:
White Moon looked very good at exeter carrying a penalty, will make a smashing chaser in time.

I’ve added him to my book for this race after that performance. Everything indicates that he’ll likely end up in this race to my eye, and I’ve bought into Samcro that much that I wouldn’t back him for the Ballymore in any case
 
White Moon another impressive performance , they must be thinking of taking on some better opposition next time though surely.

I could easily see Samcro ending up in the Supreme, more so than the Albert Bartlett.

I've already got more on him than I should but gonna keep taking the big odds for any race while it's available.

i too have a decent amount any race, still keep chipping away too any race. Had a bit more on supreme just incase

Tizzard stated that he would be entered up for the December meeting at Cheltenham
 
On the blind side-N.Henderson, very impressive today. Looks an out and out potato race certainty.

Was off the bridle earlier than anything and I always thought he was getting there! 100% agree... 14s-20s available...

Calett Mad ran as I would expect, got out paced?.... surprised the money came for him over the 2m4f trip

Is there a 4 mile Novice Hurdle?
 
You know what I saw watching On the Blind Side today, 2019 RSA winner and 2020 Gold Cup winner....
 
I wonder whether anyone will price up the Bobs Worth route, Potato, RSA then Gold Cup....

Not sure about all of that , but thought that was ultra impressive and he best of the english contingent. i will play in market solely because we cant say for certain which is the best form Irish or English.

I said exactly the same to a friend right after the race.

Wow. So I can say we're keen on the Albert Bartlett or so you both think chaser?

I think you're getting him mistaken with Barters Hill
 
A chaser for me. I just thought 2019 RSA winner as soon as he crossed the line.

There were two massive clues today, he came up the hill quicker than he went down it and he battled when asked to go about his work.
No horse wins an RSA or Gold Cup on the bridle, they are brutal races, and every year plenty of horses get talked up for the race who have beaten trees by big distances, seeing a horse try for his pilot and quicken as OTBS did today tells me so much about the horse.
To me he is a carbon copy of Bobs Worth....
 
Henderson said: "I'll be disappointed if we are not back here in a year's time for one of the novice chases, because that's what it's all about.

"It looks like he wants three miles, but he's quite a baby. He went up hills better than he came down them.

"He's won a point-to-point and two hurdles, but he's still a baby. He's quickened up really well in the end. He won't be running in handicaps.

"If you were to say anything (in March) it would be the Albert Bartlett, but that's a long way off."

A voice was telling me OTBS could be something special.

I've had 2 pts win at 20/1 after letting the dust settle. Watched back and incredibly impressed and as a Bob's Worth fan the comparisons are too much for me to leave him unbacked
