Rasharrow will have a sequence up North, but being unleashed ? Len Lungo hasn't really cracked Cheltenham has he. Would love to see this one improve his record at the meeting.
The sun may be shining, but I await the msity November mornings, and the drive to HQ to get the pulse racing... the real stuff is just around the corner. Verbal what's so impressive about being beaten by Al Eile at aintree (Brave Inca would surely have beaten them both if he'd stood up) Imo Iris's Gift would murder him in the stayers if he reverts to hurdles. All the suggestions from Robert Lester were that Iris Gift was a natural over fences - I think it would be a pretty big U-turn to revert to hurdles this season and I'm confident we will see an exciting chaser in the coming months. I think he would only go back for the Stayers' if he failed as a chaser.
Someone suggested racing demon for the stayers. Anyone know Hens plan for this one. Presume he'll end up over fences at some stage (similar profile to best mate) but not sure whether it will be this season.
Of the other horses mentioned also think War of Attrition is overrated. De Soto could be anything (cliche), Rasharrow will be prob trained with aintree in mind. Cloone rivers performance at the curragh on derby day was listed class. He jumps like a stag too so is certainly one to consider for the qm. Hoping nolan sends him over to the November meeting for the paddy power this year. He did a similar thing with Accordian last year to confirm he was festival class. Forget the Past is a horse the Michael o Brien yard think a lot of and he was very impressive at Punchestown. Prob not Gold Cup class. Great thread lads. Can we please keep it going.
lungo hasnt done anything at cheltenham cap but rasharrow did go close in the bumper and looks very classy ris's gift is always going to be underpriced and should go novice chasing this season if anything, to put him in at the deep end against kicking king et al would be ridiculous. ill be surprised if he comes back the same horse as he was in 03/04 percussionist will be an interesting recruit for howard over the sticks, beaten about 2 lengths in the derby he is surely one of the best flat horses to go jumping in a while also looking forward to seeing wild passion, penzance,faasel and an o'grady horse called o'muircheartaigh
