RSA Chase 2020

[Kevloaf]

BOD not running, has this been confirmed??

Not that I've seen

 

[jack1092]

Lobos sounds like he's guessing he'll be pulled as they've a second horse in the race (owners + trainer).

Elliot doesn't mind having more than one runner in this based on past runnings...

Yep, complete guess work from me and clearly I was wrong! Soz for confusion. Hoping for a big run from him.

Battleoverdoyen still available at 36/1 boosted with hills. Won’t be that price come 1.50

Will be interesting to see how much he's cut on the back of this, should he win. In what looks a very weak race.

You'd have to be a bit disappointed if he doesn't canter to victory.

I'm put off him myself, pulled up at chelt, lame at punchestown. His previous form is just not that good, and can see him being found out long before chelt personally. But
suppose elliot always thought hed be twice the horse as a chaser. And I cant knock people taking a punt at 33s with cashout.

Which of this season’s novice chasers brings the best form with them would you say? Champ?

What do you think of Bapaume doing back in trip Scooby? I desperately want to see him tried over the minimum trip this season.

Very keen on the JLT myself. But obviously want him priced accordingly. (40s / 50s)
Couldn't have him for the arkle what so ever myself

I'm not convinced he really stays the 3 miles and although he has run some decent races over the trip, I couldn't have him as an RSA type.

Looks ideal for a drop in trip over fences but even 2m 5f around Cheltenham might just stretch him imo.

It was a general question really as it’s always something I find varies greatly. With Cheltenham, Aintree and Punchestown all providing graded prizes within several weeks of each other, it’s tough to always nail down what is the best form as:

Some will win at Cheltenham and at the other meetings (Minella Indo)
Some will lose at Cheltenham but then win at one of the others (Champ)
Sone will win at Cheltenham but then lose at one of the others (City Island)
Some will bypass Cheltenham altogether and win at the others (Reserve Tank)

You’ll also get the odd horse who won’t win any of the major end of season races but turn out to be a much better chaser than hurdler.

That's like a poem, or a chorus.
definitely a tongue twister if you try and say it fast.

While they aren't G1 horses necessarily, Galvin + CY have enough ability to keep him honest on a reappearance.

Oh aye, in the regard I hold him I would be disappointed with anything other than a canter to victory.

That was a very impressive round of jumping by Battleoverdoyen

 

[Scooby91]

A shame is only opposition came down. Jumped very well, and did what he was asked to do,

 

[FaugheenTheMachine]

That was a proper chase debut, very impressive

He’s a big old lump but athletic too. Beat nothing but that’s going to be the same for most of these early season egg and spoon races.

 

[Altior]

Some huge horse. Very promising run over fences.
