I finally have found common ground with Shergar! It's a terribly difficult race but I have also gone for Steps To Freedom.
Im starting to like the look of Montbazon aswell, i think he could improve alot for spring ground. Though whichever one I go with will be the wrong one
Shergs you going to do the Shoo-ins for your army of followers this year? They've been starved of these shoo-ins for a while...
Timeform's top rated in this race are: DARLAN 165 (HIF) TETLAMI (IRE) 160p GALILEO'S CHOICE (IRE) 159p (HIF) MONTBAZON (FR) 159p STEPS TO FREEDOM (IRE) 158p COLOUR SQUADRON (IRE) 157+ MIDNIGHT GAME 156 PROSPECT WELLS (FR) 156 TRIFOLIUM (FR) 156 (HIF) DYLAN ROSS (IRE) 155 CINDERS AND ASHES 154p (HIF) Well that's cleared that up
I am starting to come down on the side of Colour Squadron. This is very much a price angle because I don't see why he should be more than twice the price of Montbazon when he has already beaten him once, and I think he would have the last day too. At 16/1 and 7/1 there is far too big a discrepancy between the two. The 16/1 or 14/1 with Skybet paying 5 places looks fair.
