Chapter Two (Cork 3:40) 18/1 and Chesterfield (Cheltenham) 25/1 both look too big for me.

 

Hes back.

 

Alan King is bullish.

 

16s into 7s so obviously plenty of other people fancy it’s chances too

 

I just picked the wrong one.

 

Spotted this last night and had a fiver EW at 50/1
Just checked and its now 9's!!!!!

 

Jesus, was 16/1 30 mins ago when i was in the bookies, 8's now

 

I'll take the 3rd, annoying to be beat by Elgin though!

 

Its dropped from around 105 to 75 in less than a year. A masterly plot if they pull it off.

 

Masterly plot or bent as **** fiddle

 

Soulsaver foils the gamble, close though, good e/w well done lads

 

Cracking ew shout

 

Nearly!

 

Yes, I too was really impressed by Lisp on debut. Despite pulling far too hard and making a bit of a hash of the last 2 hurdles (both traits that can be ‘ironed out’ by his handler given time) he, at the line, was just 3.5 lengths off a horse rated in the 90’s on the level and 14 lengths clear of the 3rd home. As this was only his 4th visit to a racecourse you would imagine that Lisp can only, and I do mean only, improve.

It may be massively premature to mention him in the same breath as the ‘Fred Winter’ but that ultimately, this term, is the sort of animal that he could be. Will obviously though need at least 2 more runs over hurdles to be eligible. They will tell us far more.
