Triumph Hurdle 2019

Cheltenham trials day wasn't it?
Barry gets a fair bit of stick these days but there's few if any better for that kind of thing (and Henderson for a trainer infact)

That'd be my best guess then.

To be fair, Barry silenced his critics this weekend, they'll be out for his next bad ride no doubt :devilish:
 
There'll be a new fav by the weekend anyway. No doubt.

Are you expecting the price to come in price race ? If the entry for MR does get taken up ?

Don't quite understand that question?

But basically I think adjali runs and goes fav.
If fusil raffles ran would be the same imo In terms of going fav. They'd both win that race no bother.
 
To be fair to Barry I think he took the summer off he had some shocking rides, he seems to have found his mojo again lately.

Dam autocorrect, I was trying to ask if you expected the price to decrease significantly pre race as seen before never adapt run

Not really tbh. With never adapt, That was hype money no doubt .
 
Adjali takes his chance tomorrow. And he wins easily.
 
Put my final bet on him at 25s ew. Have my absolute stones on him now. So he better do the business tomorrow.

*******
Better add that I deffinately wouldn't advise anyone to do the same

I am expecting a bridle job myself, the closest forecasted in the betting to him got hammered by Cracker Factory, another who is owned by Munir/Suede, who went on to finish behind Quel Distin in that Grade 2 that included Never Adapt.

Bit of an underwhelming start, based on what Never Adapt was asked to do (maybe she was asked too much), however it is nice to see him entered up and heading for a racecourse over here.

King dargent is no mug he was only 1L behind chief justice who just won the grade 3 in Ireland beating the triumph fav.
(he ran his race as he's met cracker factory before) So it's an easy horse to put a line through as regards to the rish challenge at a later date.

Munir / soude have got 5 so it's a dangerous bet in theory.

Adjali (hendo)
Fusil raffles (hendo)
Fret d'estruval (Alan king)
Cracker factory (Alan king)
Torpillo (N T-D)

Seems the answer to that is yes. He's going to be fav before even running. I'll go 13/2 after he bolts up

Connections worried that tomorrows test of speed will catch him out, but hopefully he bolts up
 
Yeah just tried to put some on with Betfair (limited £8), then went skybet (limited £10) then went to paddy would let me max £80 got called into a meeting at work then come back to a price reduction from 25 to 16 ...

Just to add ... meeting was a waste of time... maybe I’m not meant to back this horse
 
spoke to racing manager on Monday (hes not one for shouting from the roof tops and naturally likes to keep a lid on things, as i say hopefully bolts up then goes to Chepstow and wins the grade 1)
