He was always struggling to stay with the leaders Oddy, and when the wick was turned up he went backwards. Can't say that his jumping was particularly poor, just didn't seem to have the pace, so considering his hurdle form you'd have to puzzle why not?
To Live threw that away at the 4th last. Down on his belly when pressing on, AP did well to keep him going, but you don't win races by giving away distance and momentum at a crucial time. I'd missed Stick tipping that one - well done mate
wahooooo ... and the Lady Bridget + Thunderstorm double comes off as well ..... cheers to the men with the savvy .... much appreciated !
I said to watch out for Perfect Candidate before the listed bumper at Chelts. Today is the day I think.
If overturn wins the arkle this year i will eat my left foot. Yes he jumped flawlessly on his jumping debut and does look a very exciting prospect but i just cant see him being good enough
Can Fleetwood Sands turn the favourite over in the last race? 14/1 seems fair enough for a little each way bet.
Cheers for the messages guys, about time I was back in the winners enclosure. I owe that conditional a pint I reckon as his ride on LADY BRIDGET was nothing short of McCoyesque! Well done you boys with winners today especially Ardent!
