Cheltenham Handicap Shortlists

You ready to elaborate on this yet doc?

Just swept the forum to see if mentioned... you've said this, and VF has said he's perhaps a little too exposed in the Close Bros thread...


Just looking at him myself, rated 145 - wondering whether he sets the standard.

Kev,
Ive got nothing solid for this race yet I'm afraid. Im on holiday but plan to look at this race in detail at the weekend.
This is where I'll start:
Best RPR over 3 miles, not older than 8, Novice, or 2nd season novice, previous festival form.
 
No entries for Glenloe at either Navan or Gowran for the weekend.

Will be getting a little dicey in getting that third and final run into him now with the clock ticking at 4 weeks today
 
Le Breuil fits all of the above if you count the Ladbrokes @Newbury 3miles???
 
As does The Worlds End.

So thats a start. Any fancies for you Kev???
 
Glenloe into 8/1 favourite for the Kim Muir with 365 now they’ve gone NRNB
 
Come on Gordon you know it makes sense...

Coo Star Sivola at 45/1 and 40/1
Talkischeap 25/1 (although will probably cash out for full stake)
The Worlds End (any race) 28/1


So no, not really - I don't like Give Me A Copper or Beware The Bear.



As you well know, I do not follow the stats blindly, however the highest RPR in a 3 mile chase did stick with me - but didn't Coo Star Sivola blow that up last year thinking about it?

Needs another run yet. Before they can think about it.

Handicap entries next week, with weights out the following week. I wonder if he had a slight setback as last weekend would have looked to be an ideal opportunity to get a handicap mark.
 
Forgive my lack of understanding, while I know he needs another run, must that be before the entry stage? Or when the weights are out?

My understanding is that he needs a mark before the weights are published.

This new, polite Innoko doesn't seem as fun as the one I know and love :p
 
I'm not sure I like this Innoko either, I feel an Adjali type rant coming on :highly_amused:

Could well be being vaccinated as we speak.
 
be useful for many to know Glenloe's options,

Is it a fact that he can enter and then get a mark before the weights announced following week or not ?
Or do we cash before entries day ?
If he can enter I'll risk leaving my bets, but would be useful to know his options on the weekend and run up prior to the weights announcement.
 
Does anyone know the Irish mark of entoucas?

County in mind.

Nope. CSS highest RPR 151 3M Exeter before the fez race.

What’s the reasoning behind cashing out Talk is Cheap.
