the high class irish hurdler accordion etoile is been
targeted at the arkle chase at the festival,i would have
thought this improveing hurdler would have been allowed
another crack at the champion hurdle ,as for a horse with
little experience at the highest level he ran a cracker in
the 2005 champion hurdle,any thoughts anyone.
I`ve noticed jimnast that Accordion Etoile will run in the 2
mile hurdle at Tipperary on 2nd October. Apparently Intersky
Falcon is due to run, and I`d imagine Harchibald will run
to. I wouldn`t be at all surprised that if Accordion Etoile
won this well, then connections may change their minds and
keep him over hurdles.
The announcement that he`ll go chasing could be a tactic to
force the hands of Brave Inca & Macs Joy`s connections. I
believe all 3 would make good chasers, but all have chances
of winning the Champion Hurdle as well.
Robertw21 you are absolutely right ! I am saying I think
they will make good chasers, but we won`t know for definite
until they jump their first fences in public. Horses such as
Pizarro & Made In Japan are in my opinion ones which should
be reverted back to hurdles, as neither are as good over
fences as what they were over hurdles.
A high class beast on good or better ground. If they are to
go over fences i would imagine he will have to make his
chase debut soon while the ground is ok, a couple of runs in
Sept/Oct and then the 2 mile novice at Paddy Power meeting
and put away for Arkle. He's a lovely looking horse who
should be athletic enough to jump fences at speed but we
wont know for sure until we see ourselves.
i was lucky that day i was intending laying it ,but if you remember
harchibald had franked the form about 1/2 hour before by
toying with macs joy and back in front at
punchestown,harchibald had finished 25l behind accordian
etoile at tipperary the time before,so i did a twirl at back
it myself,if the irish race was after the cheltenham race
ide have done my money.
Who are the perceived threats to Accordion Etoile??
Brave Inca will take a lot of beating if his jumping his up
to scratch.
Justified and The Railway Man are interesting from these
shores as well.
