Just watching the Channel 4 coverage back as was in the pub, and you have to laugh at NTDs interview before the race, claiming the New One had the best turn of foot I have never heard anything more delusional in my life, get him ready for that World Hurdle bid next year
One thing to take from the race, top class hurdlers based in uk are very very thin on the ground. When was the last truly dominant hurdler trained in the UK with the potential to dominate this race.
One thing the race put to bed was the unlucky rubbish which was forced down our throats last year! Jezki confirmed the form with the overrated TNO
What's your problem mate, how many times you get personal with me?! There's no ****ing need for it all, I don't know why you feel the need for it. I don't normally even waste my time responding but I have this time. If anyone else made my remark you'd a said nothing. I made a valid comment about Jezki upholding the form from last year, so no need for petty name calling. Have a good festival LOL
Ha ha!! Bit sensitive to what people say on an Internet forum? Thought you were thicker skinned than that. I wouldn't take it too personally Beefy. Just not keen on people having their noses rubbed in it because I expect some of them lost a fair bit of money. For the record, the comment wasn't only directed at you - I used the word d**ks, not d**k Also don't understand how I have gotten personal with you before? If you hadn't shown yourself as a poor character I wouldn't have said anything. At the same time, I don't really care I'm afraid. Yes, enjoy your Festival and let's hope we can keep fleecing the bookies
Firstly well done yesterday but I'm not having the fact that one well beaten horse finishing a yard in front of another proves anything about a completely different race a year ago. Some think TNO was unlucky in 2014, some don't. Fair enough, I'm in the former camp and do like the horse a lot. There's not many that are good enough to win 2 and if like me you thought TNO was unlucky last year and would have won then you're of the view that he was in that sort of bracket and he most clearly isn't. That's why I said I'd love it if he'd have won. Hope over expectation like King Kev all those years ago.
I think top class horses in general are thin on the ground here in the UK unfortunately at the moment. It's sad to say but the Irish racing is leagues apart from ours at the moment, and yesterday's results confirm that. It was all so different a few years back when Nicholls and then Henderson had there dominant spells, but at the moment it's hard to bet against the Irish horses
