After much deliberation and market watching I have sided with CLAN DES OBEAUX and backed it at 9/2.
I think it won the King George despite it being a right handed, flat speed track and will be seen to better effect over this C&D. I cant see Native River finishing ahead of him. The spoiler is Presenting Percy who I cannot measure on form, and if he wins then fair play to connections, thats an amazing achievement.
With you Mugz on Presenting Percy. Think it will be amazing if he wins and what a training performance. I am on Kemboy. Really like his form and profile
I like Kemboy, backed it lto, and is a bit of an unknown, but you have to have a stamina laden horse to win this and Im not sure he has it. got him in my placepot though.
What a great race. Great to see Willie Mullins get the winner he was so wanting. What a run from Bristol Dr Mai. Hope we don't have another fatality though
Native River is such a one gear horse, it is a pretty good gear to have but he just cant adapt to pace in a race. Didnt fancy him getting a soft lead this year and its amazing that he finished 4th, shows he is really genuine beast.
