Triumph Hurdle 2019

Yes niggles before his debut, they didnt get a clear run and he was rushed out to get the prep before one of their fav grade 1's. I absolutely agree on the day beat fair and square at Chepstow but Id be reasonably confident of him turning the tables if both turned up at chelt on trials day.

Quel destin deffinately isn't going trials day.
 
In that case id be very confident that Adjali wont be turning the tables on trials day lol
 
Lamarckise entry at Fairyhouse caught the eye.
 
French made now gets in as reserve. Hopefully she can go well today.
 
Fret DEstruval has entries at Huntingdon and Kempton. King said he he left plenty to work on and the betting told the story last time.
 
Could double it up with something you fancy at the festival.
 
Think the Elliot runner at 5/2 looks the better bet today myself.

Before French Made made it in the race, i thought Elliot's was worth taking on. Ground against her probably and form of her hurdle run not very good- even if you forgive it being her first run back which is plausible!

Looks a shocking race though Jack? What would you fancy to beat her other than the fav? Also breeding suggested to me the ground should be fine tbh?

If French Made goes well then surely a positive towards Fenta Des Obeaux (French flat form)?

Agree it really does- I had the view that Elliot isn’t firing superbly and the ground was against her so, I looked at bigger ones1 more at the prices rather than certain to beat her. I thought Claregate St for all she’s a massive price is overpriced. Trainer and jockey do ok at track, her flat rating ties in closely with JOBs and it’s much shorter. Add to that, Aunty Audrey who finished the last race CS was brought down in, got a rating in mid 90s- she’s like 50 rated on flat, so I’d expect CS to have finished ahead of her and she’s a bit price based on that.

A lot of assumptions, and just a small interest on a poor meeting in Ireland.
