Stayers Hurdle 2020

Yeh paisley odds on, no doubt.

I'd back ITCF in a match bet with PP at a shade over 2/1 so I might aswell back at 8s for the stayers.

I honestly see it as very close between the 2 and if the cap fits winning but he has to have a clear round. he may get nabbed but I'll be shocked if hes beaten 3L or more.

He's a lively threat.
But not at that price antepost for me.
But you could be right and he's shorter on the day.
I'd definitely wait till cleeve entries though as can't see the 8-1 disappearing unless PP gets hurt before hand.

I will do. I thought he was 8s with unibet and I could get a bit on with a few of the boosts at 9s. Sadly not the case. And an in shop job on the day of the cleeve.

The only thing that scares me is the owners, or I'd have backed already.

Yep, wouldn't surprise me if they go for aintree hurdle instead.

I thought they'd sorted all that out , and the Owners happy to go racing at cheltenham again ??.

They are, but they make snap calls of judgement. If one of theres dosent run well or falls at the track etc..
 
Keep backing IF THE CAP FITS EW 7/1 NRNB.

Defo an under rated horse, hry is on fire, is also a battler and i think will run PP very close.

Been backing IF THE CAP FITS EW all year just hope he makes it.

Under rated? By who?

He's 2nd fav in a Championship race, and had only had a Grade 1 because of beating a couple of Mares.

Not sure he's under rated, he's rated pretty highly, he's pretty good.

Paisley park is better .... not many other horses in the division that anyone could argue are better than ITCF though.


I'm being pedantic of course, but he isn't under rated by this forum, or the bookies:victorious:

Sorry that just meant because fo beating a couple of mares :stupid: :highly_amused:

Should change your name to Pedantic :rolleyes::highly_amused:
 
My thoughts exactly!

Very frustrating indeed!

Given he had trained a winner in the race was my reason for letting it run even with the poor reappearance.

Lesson learnt.
 
Bright Forecast to be given Stayers Hurdle entry. Not a bad bet at 33s NRNB with B365 if you have an account considering the lack of depth here
