Stayers Hurdle 2020

You don't get the Thistlecrack each way angle?

You cannot have him in the first 3?

That's an incredibly bold shout.... especially as one of the 3 you've mentioned is Apple's Jade!..... If you counting on her keeping Thistlecrack out of the 3 you'll be in a world of pain.


You better hope some stuff comes out of the woodwork, because this division in pants.

"a world of pain" I love it. Cheltenham form is 2/1/3/6 6th was a poor race in last years CH. She is back in business now after 2 poor performances. She beat Penhill 21l and Bacardi's 23l. Time of night I know but the same in both cases

Im on her at 66s but you're more forgiving than me :highly_amused:

I love the the saying 'a world of pain' ... I look forward to seeing you using it going forward Haha
 
He 100% would go off shorter than 16s you donut.:stupid:

The biggest price he's ever gone off for Willie Mullins was 16/1 in the Albert Bartlett and there is zero chance he goes off that again having won the Albert Bartlett and the Stayers Hurdle.


I dont think he will, he's long gone at the game these days. He Hasn't run a decent race in 2 years.

There should be a good few to come into the race. Rather than penhill getting shorter.

FWIW I think Penhill may shorten slightly but not halve in price ( bookies liabilities on PP will dictate ) , agree on form and difficult to enthuse about.

There will be additions but will they be just chasing place money?

Atm only ITCF viable option?

ATM is the key word.
Always looks shocking this time of year. But then theres usually a few shock entries in the cleeve.

I'll have to back ITCF just Before the cleeve. But I want to see what's declared first and for him to physically line up. As there would be no rush if he dosent.

I just hope reserve tank is in the entries.

I have numerous doubles running onto PP and have bet ITCF

Reserve Tank is ground dependent , will look at NRNB most prob

Not the place to post this but I’m not quite as mad as perhaps you think :)
I was holding 2 separate bets on Maria’s Rock @33’s so yes I did a 50/50 for a bit of cash flow

Memory is def on the wane:)
 
Personally think if you've not had a bet yet, Stayers is best left alone until the day like the Ballymore. Bet in the 'without Paisley/Envoi' market or take advantage of additional places. No point betting either of those races now Ew as you are likely to be giving away your win stake and playing for just 2 places.

Morning Lobos I notice a definite subtle difference in the tone of your posts :highly_amused:

“Personally “ .... I approve , hows your diet?

As an “older “ style punter I’ve never been a supporter of WTF markets online but have used on course over the years in small fields, that being my point .. small fields

However this old dog is not averse to learning new tricks and always open to improving my betting options :applause:

WTF not everyone's cup of tea but good to put it out there for any fresh punters on here that might not be aware of that option. Would apply to Tigers race as well.

That's fair enough HP with maries rock. What I was thinking, was in the future when your cash flow increases. You can lay off at current prices which would be much better than doubling your money.

Cheers appreciate and realise best advice

Cash flow without sounding blasé isn’t the problem , it’s me!


Don’t trade , yes I should , my son is a trader

Trying at a mature age to be more disciplined but habits of a lifetime are v difficult to change, life’s balancing act :)

Not knocking what you said at all

Each to their own

One mans meat and all that
Huge respect for anyone who attempts dieting :applause:

Rightly or wrongly, Im completely finished with this race! Think PP is the biggest certainty of the week.

May try and throw him in a few more doubles between now and then though.

As discussed with Scooby earlier today

ATM as the race stands I get what you say and PP for me is a big return however “ other entries” would have to be considered
