He'd be mad to do that wouldn't he?

740k spent, a better chance of winning a festival novice hurdle than he had when he woke up this morning?


I'd be horrified if he didn't run.... I wouldn't cash myself

I’d worry with the short turnaround to the festival they hold him back for possibly Aintree. Nicholls tend to take a long term approach prioritizing chasing. I could be way off but there’s enough doubt now that I think the only play is NRNB for the B&B.
 
Not long to go until the mighty Landrake goes under the hammer...

Got to assume 7 figures given the prices of the horses already gone?
Including the pennies

Ridiculous money !! Caldwell will make a killing.
 
The soon to be Grand Annual winner bought for 330k. Imagine for 320k for Derham. Nice buy for him. Should win some races in the UK.

Yup! This is a bloody good guide as to what is well handicapped isn't it! I really like that move for Imagine and Derham. He seems to have made a great start to life on his own and deservers a potentially very good one.

Dandrew99 assume you purchased Landrake? Poor old thing.

:highly_amused: wish I had enough money to splash 50k on a horse! I'm glad he didn't go for like 15k though, felt sorry for him :apologetic:

420k for Mighty Bandit. Thought he'd get a bit more.
 
I was hoping the auction might help me pick between Sa Fureur and Firm Footings for the Grand Annual and they've both got the same amount ... I'd quite like that Sa Furuer has gone to Gigginstown.

Who is Tom Malone? Anyone know who Landrake has gone to?

Emphasis that this is for interest, not because I'm interested in him ever winning a race again :highly_amused:

Think he works for PN now …,blood stock agent …handled some top horses
 
I'm really pleased for the Paul Nicholls team after the tragedy of young keagan
I'm not suggesting a horse can replace a lovely young man but it's a boost at a bad time
love and respect to all

That's probably because you aren't there bidding. You are the only one who didn't see his run last time

Kidding of course :love_heart:
 
I think Potter to PN makes sense ….top chase prospect & he is brilliant with them

Big statement & pleased for him
