Re: LAY OF THE DAY - BET OF THE DAY
Difficult to assess this race, Big Bucks travelled well through out the race, clearly got tired in the ground and going up the hill at Cheltenham after such a long lay off. But beaten by a 66/1 shot, who was rated 29lbs below and Fisher's cross who has been out of form and showen nothing this season.
Before his injury, Big Bucks would of picked these up and won in a canter, i still think he remains some of his old ability, but probably not the force he once was.
I would love to see him win a 5th world hurdle and it's not in possible, if the ground comes up good and he has no ill effect from this race. But I feel that one or maybe two might be too good, especially if Annie Power goes for this race.

with question marks hanging over their hands, Sprinter Sacre and Big Bucks have to be lays at Cheltenham for me

I think we might have seen the Arkle winner yesterday, Trifolium
Re: LAY OF THE DAY - BET OF THE DAY
So people - the market is open for the Melbourne Cup - only 10 months away. Who has a juicy tip on a quality stayer from the Northern Hemisphere that doesn't mind big tight fields and a fast run race? I reckon we are well due for a Northern raider to take home the big $$
Re: LAY OF THE DAY - BET OF THE DAY
Second note - if you guys can get a bet on our Golden Slipper - Rubick is good value at 7-2. I backed it last week at 14-1 before its first start and it destroyed its opposition on Saturday. It's already favorite but i expect it will be odds-on when they jump.
Finally - my nag - Super Villain, is trialling on Friday at Randwick to be set for the big autumn races. I'll give you a heads up when to jump on board.

Re: LAY OF THE DAY - BET OF THE DAY
ok here's a heads up - my horse Super Villain (well 10% of him anyway) - trialled very well this week and is starting it's prep aimed at the Aus Derby in April. In the trial he beat a horse quoted at 25-1 for the Derby by 9 lengths and does his track work partnered with the favourite and is apparently working at least as well as him. He is currently 100-1 the win and 25-1 the place - this is before nominations which close on Monday.
No guarantees at all but might be worth a small wager.......

Re: LAY OF THE DAY - BET OF THE DAY
yeah RIP Our Connor, only 5, and with big future in the game. Poor animal must of been in total agony with a broken back, until they attend to him and gave him pain killing drugs, not nice to say, but I wish he had died instantly, instead of laying there suffering, until they finally made the decision to put him down.
I wonder if they will water the track now, clearly seems the ground is riding a bit too fast and with these horses jumping at 35 to 40mph there will be more tragedies.
Quevega winning for the 6th year running, has to be the highlight on what was a sad day.
Looking forward to Thursday Big Bucks v Annie Power, Think Annie Power will win if she stays, receiving 10lbs and also Ruby Walsh knows Big Bucks inside out and will know what he has to do, to get him beat

Re: LAY OF THE DAY - BET OF THE DAY
Fucking gutted for Dessie and the lads. I actually know a girl who rode him out, so so sad. Would love to go on a rant about the bleeding hearts but I won't.

There is no doubt in my mind that Annie Power will beat Big Bucks, there is no way he can give her that weight
