I've backed Captain Conan today on the hope that he's improved for the run against Colour Squadron. However, I really want the Irish horses to win because what a boost that will give to Boston Bob.
Cheers for Triumph prices. I've just backed Darroun for the Triumph at 20/1 for a couple of points. I think that is extremely strong form.
Looking through the Triumph betting why is Minsk 8/1 in places???? The worst ante post bet of all time???
Cash And Go for me in the next "and Cash And Go sweeps to the lead and Sous Les Cieux can't go with him ........................" Probably more like "And it 's a shock here as Tony Martin's Beneficient is gonna win it"
Captain Conan is massive isn't he? Here's where we find out if he is ready for Cheltenham this year. I fancy Il Fenomino and that was my NAP last night- forgive the last run, I think there is good form on a line across Dylan Ross.
I also quite like Cash and Go Oddy. I won't be having a bet in this with no viable form line for the NH raider,but CAG could be one of those types who just does enough and is consequently hard to calibrate. Trappy race.
Trappy race it was! I said a couple of weeks ago that the Irish novices don't look as good as in previous years....didn't see anything there to change my mind.
That is brilliant!!! I think Sous Les Cieux was possible unlucky. He was making headway until fluffing two out and was always on the back foot afterwards. Must be said that none look Cheltenham material though. Captain Conan is a big boat. Not a great boost for the Colour Squadron form, also ties in Montbazon amongst others.
