Triumph Hurdle 2019

I can't believe I'm going to have to cash out a 40/1 bet on Fakir D'Oudaries.

How late do I dare leave it

Kev don’t do what I did with Glen Forsa bet in Close Bros
The 5/1 more than covered it though

No actual decision until the week before though...

If Sir Erec got injured I'd have cashed out the Triumph fav at 40/1 :disgust:

Surely I'll know in the build up. Blake will let the FFP know...? :highly_amused:

Me saying I don't want to cash out a horse yet in case another in the yard doesn't make it there on the day, isn't the same as somebody making up that a horse in injured as a joke.
 
Don’t know what to make of Harry on PIC on the FFP hopefully just keeping quiet would of loved to see a prep run but I’ve fingers and toes crossed he makes it
 
I’m not sure why he would need to be coy; one look at the markets show most people and the bookies already know about the horse
 
Oh you can hear the purrrrr in his voice. He jives Kevins confident assertions of having the triumph wrapped up. “Pic D’Orhy is coming on well....”. They clearly text each other over this. He’s a machine and they all know it. MORE ON. MOREEEE
 
PN posting pictures of BF schooling Pic D’Orhy, followed by liking tweets saying he's a machine, HD name dropping him 2 weeks ago and then again yesterday saying he is 'coming on well'. Individually all positive, but taken collectively, I think you have to assume they are going to Cheltenham and think he is a bit of a weapon. The form also tells us that :).

I'm not one for paying too much attention to what PN says on preview nights because he waxes lyrical about all of his, but will be interesting to see what he has to say about Pic D’Orhy because other than piecing together bits and bobs (which is all we have to go by) he is a little bit of an enigma
 
Nicholls will do a few preview evenings and he’s one of the more honest panelists.
Wait for the betfair one, he usually has a few glasses if red and lets his enthusiasm show...

Sorry /off on tangents
Injuries NR give me the shudders as did Tigef Roll post

Paul Nicholls answers questions on the betfair racing twitter tonight. Hopefully a Pic D'orhy update.

Agreed. Quietly confident and has learnt from his Danny Kirwan comments.
 
Yes. Never adapt could be anything As could farid
But adjali at 33s 1/4 ew is rock solid.

Thank you for mentioning that French gallop website. Just had a good watch of them races - use to have Quel destin above Adjali but after watching the form of Boumec de houelle and the races - Adjali is a great bet. Pic D’Orphy looks very very good loved his last race went a good gallop and looked like he picked up again in the final furlong. I’ll most likely do a without market with Adjali and PDO when them markets become available

You can watch all live French racing on there flat and jumps.
 
IF Pic D’Orhy hoses up in this, we do owe Scooby. Very early call when at a big price before the market even picked up on news of the sale.

Very nice horse, definitely not Fred Winter because he's 148/149. If he runs at Cheltenham it will be the Triumph,
