Ladbroke Trophy (Hennessy)

Great ride by Scu - would be of interest on similar ground in the National.

Said that out loud (to myself) as he crossed the line.

Then I answered in my head saying "I bet he goes up loads though in the weights"

Then I ran downstairs to talk to my wife as I was embarassed about talking to myself.

I’m tempted to cash out on my LIT KG bet, Copperhead was dire again today and there’s really no sign of the yard coming out of this dark patch

Yard form can change within a few days though....

You'd be better waiting until close to the time if that's the 'angle' for cashing out?

Agreed, not looking to cash out yet

i had originally backed LIT as I thought he’d come on for it, but now I’m considering this to be a cash out option so will wait a few more weeks
 
I am obviously saying this through very very rose tinted glasses... BUT... Vinndication was travelling and jumping well (before his fall lol).

just met that last fence awkwardly and came down. If he can brush up his jumping I certainly give him a good EW chance in the big one in March.
 
Will there be a new thread for the Ladbrokes Trophy 2021 or shall we carry on with this thread?
Anyway my 2 current antepost selections are Shan Blue & Fiddlerontheroof. Both 16/1, I really fancy these both this far out not knowing what Irish raiders may turn up
 
I'm going to the Henn but have learnt over many, many years that it's only worth having a bet in the race on the day as that is the only time the 'real' money is placed. Leave it until about 1pm and then gauge where the proper Dosh is pumped. A very, very good tip from a very old man.

Anyone can create a thread TKP if there’s a discussion to be had, we should have new thread for each race rather than use previous renewals.
Feel free to kick it off…

Absolutely love the Hennessy meeting. Favourite recent memory was the duel between Total Recall and Whisper. Dear old Whisper, what a game horse he was :courage:
 
Burrough Hill Lad carrying top weight in a bog in 1984 is worth a few minutes of anyone's time. I know it's before many on here were born but it was breathtaking live, especially if he was carrying your hard-earned.
