200/1 - Any race

Klassical Dream
Envoi Allen
Chacun Pour Soi



As Envoi Allen could run in any of 3 novice races at the moment, and Klassical Dream could end up as fav for the CH or Arkle - the any race element of this (at this stage) is decent enough. IF Altior doesn't run, or isn't the same horse then Chacun Pour Soi looks to be in pole position to rise through the ranks so without too much of a leap, these 3 could all be favourites in their respective races.

Speculative, but one of the better RAB's I've seen.

Appreciate the safety net of it being 'any race' but IF it was only Envoi Allen you were concerned about with regards to which race, then you could back all 3 options and still come out better than the 200/1 on offer, plus you have the option of going e/way for place money if you wanted too.

Personally I actually discount the Supreme straight away for EA, so I'd be backing Ballymore & AB only, which definitely means I'd be ahead of the 200/1 on offer.
 
These bets are fine for the free fivers.
I can only assume Sky have been hurt with free bets in the past year, they used to have plenty of free bet offers but I haven't seen any for months, a clear strategy shift for Sky.
The beauty of a free £50 bet is you can have a half decent ante post single/double/multi with that sum, the bet club £5 less so, hence throwing them on 200/1 request a bets...

It is not just Envoi Allen that I'm not sure about. I don't see why you'd discount the Supreme either to be honest for Envoi Allen? He's literally won over 2 miles on the same course, so to discount it is just foolish. He looks like he'll get further and bred to, but you don't need me to tell you horses like Vautour, Champange Fever, Menorah, Al Ferof and Altior :devilish: excelled over further after winning a Supreme.



You'd be kidding yourself too if you thought Chacun Pour Soi and Min won't be at very least "discussed" as switching targets through the season. The Ryanair might end up looking there for the taking if CPS gets tried up in trip at any point. Willie won't commit until March 2020 - we know this. Even if it 'looks like' it's obvious, it won't be written in stone.


They haven't confirmed what Klassical Dream is doing, although it looks more obvious - but how annoyed would you be if they sent him chasing and is even money fav for the Arkle for the sake of not having a free £5 on a 200/1 shot?



Usually I think the Sky multiples are poor value (and often point it out) however with this one, I'd say it's one of the better I've seen.....

and yes, I agree Ista - I've only managed to get £40 built up in free bets so far on one account - I'll keep them all year and just put them on 'something' in Cheltenham week!
 
Not knocking a 200/1 poke, that's for certain and can see the appeal, was just pointing out that if you/anyone else was happy with targets for KD & CPS, as I am at this stage, you'd be better off backing the multiple options rather than going down the RAB route.

Have absolutely no qualms using a free bet or ten for it either.

I have my own views on EA and am discounting him for the Supreme, whether anyone else does is purely up to them.

I’ve been throwing my fivers on Minella Indo to win the 2021 Gold Cup at 33s.
I’m not proud of it but can’t get excited about many of the bigger priced options...

Must be a fairly strong fancy for the RSA this season for you then Ista?

I think there’s plenty more improvement in him.
He showed very little before his Potato race win beating a very well fancied horse (pair pulling a long way clear), then proved that was no fluke at Punchestown.
I got the impression he was made for fences and the RSA has to be the right race, I just hope they are committed to chasing this season...
 
Yeah I think he could be a bit special (took me until Pucnhestown to really get onboard). I know they didn't quite confirm fences at the back end of last season but I'd be shocked if that's not the route he goes myself.
 
Still hoping saving them up is the way forward now they have no expiry date.

Certainly not looking at 2021 yet :very_drunk:

Still very keen on Minella Indo for next year as you two both are too
