Triumph Hurdle 2019

Saw that, lovely stuff. HD mentioning him along with pics and comments like that from PN has to leave anyone fairly confident he is well and it’s all systems go for the triumph.

Great sight
Whilst Sir Erec has done all that has been asked let’s not get too carried away
Apples Shak sent off 6/5 in this race last year
 
Haha Kev can you you get stats for traffic to this thread this morning as I think everybody was coming here to post it straightaway!

100%. Pic d'orhy has done miles more than sir erec. Without a run beforehand pic would still be a decent price on the day id think, (assuming he lines up), unless Paul goes off on one at the preview nights beforehand.

And Adjali. Much better than Quel Destin in France, not so in England.

What drugs are you on. Do you know the level between the grade 1 prix cambaraces. And what adjali and quel destin have done. Quel destin was fit as a flea taking on adjali and stays very very well on that ground there was alot of races inbetween, I don't see the issue.
 
Just messaged PFN regarding Pic Dohry and plans, his response

‘Is in trumph but we have no definate plan yet’
 
Is Adjali not winning this now then? :devilish:

Adjali imo is better than tiger tap.gardens of Babylon, surin. Chief justice.... And anything sir erec has beaten. If pic dosent run. He's a solid ew chance and a very good bet at 33s ew. I really don't see the issue in someone putting up there own bet and why then getting shot down because he was beat fair and square in the trial by a very good juvenile that was recieving 5 pounds and forced him into a mistake.

Imo adjali with a clean round. No fakir and pic. And he's a very live chance.

Laskadine has been wrote off and hasn't even had her chance yet.
She's a live one.


Fusil raffles hasn't ran yet.

Paul's 2nd string quel destin is a good solid horse who'll give you everything and is very hard to beat in a dog fight.

I'm very happy where I stand. But i must admit I want pic to run badly




I don't see anyone crying at people for backing tiger tap tap at silly prices.

I'm not comparing their form I'm saying Adjali's dominance over Quel Destin wasn't translated in England. You admitted yourself Adjali was held fair and square.

He was and iv just said why . Quel destin is a stayer and on the ground and being as fit as a flea with all his runs beforehand. He outbattled and won Fair and square. No excuses at all.
With a gulph in race fitness. Conditions.and the front running tactics I see no issue with the result. Beforehand or afterwards.

Same as with adjali in his last race the winner won fair and square he got his 5 pounds led them a merry dance and forced him into a mistake. He has a valid excuse. However he was forced into that mistake. So he won fair and square. Fakir was entitled to win with his 5 pounds. Not the way he did. But above isbthe reason why he won as easily as he did.
I have no issue with the result both beforehand or afterwards.
..
Not aimed at yourself

I still maintain adjali is a good bet at 33s ew.
If he finishes well beaten and out the places. by all means have a laugh. I don't mind. I can only put what bets Iv done. And my own thinking.
Atleast wait for the race result before it becomes a poor bet on that one.

Just for reference more than anything else, as I know races are run differently blah blah blah, but the Deloitte (Chanelle Pharma) was some 4.3s quicker than the Spring Juvenile, so if SE is the better of the 2 between him and Fakir, then FD has his work cut out against the Supreme lot, purely based on the time of them 2 races, which were ran one straight after the other.

What do you make of My Way then? His French form looked very good he's been smashed in piss poor maidens over here. Doesn't always work out does it.

No issue with that at all.

Out of interest you obviously have no love for Sir Erec. Is it the fact he's come from the flat?
 
I couldn't agree more with the above from Scooby91, and I'm still very happy with my each way investment on Adjali. QD is still the one I would be worried about...just love his attitude.
