It’s quite frightening to watch, isn’t it? When Cue TODAY’S HEADLINES Card went up beside Thistlecrack six or eight [fences] out, I thought ‘goodness me’. It’s a very fickle world we live in.

When he was long he was standing off and Tom [Scudamore] was being a bit careful at the second last and he RIVALS CRACK AS THISTLE shortened up almost like a show jumper, he never touched a twig.

  • Cheltenham SUPPLEMENT

    Cheltenham SUPPLEMENT

    Cheltenham SUPPLEMENT Day One Tuesday 15 March Going: The ground for the first day is expected to ride generally good to soft, with good patches. The forecast for the next few days is for dry conditions, with cloud cover, and temperatures of around 10 degrees, so there is the prospect of watering towards the end of the week. 1.30: Sky Bet Supreme Novices’ Hurdle (Grade 1) Min has been weak in the market over the last 36 hours or so, with 9/4 readily available and bookmakers expected to offer a variety of price boosts or concessions on this and later races. One of the better offers is from Paddy Power who, I believe, are offering to refund the stake on any race at Cheltenham if the favourite wins. My advice is to shop around for the best offer before placing your bet assuming, of course, that the various options are available to you. I am encouraged to see that Buveur D’Air, my ** bet from the Bulletin Book, has proved fairly solid in the market in the last couple of days. The five-year-old had been weak last week and over the weekend, but he is now 7.8 on Betfair and a top price of 13/2 with the bookmakers. Nicky Henderson will be hoping that the ground retains some moisture for him as he prefers cut underfoot. I loved the way he travelled and quickened to win at Newbury in November and he finished almost three lengths ahead of Altior when they ran behind Barters Hill in a Listed bumper at Newbury last season.

    SATURDAY, 18 MARCH, 2017 SIZING JOHN A GOLDEN RECORD EIGHT-FIGURE HORSE TOPS HK INTERNATIONAL SALE by Alan Carasso FIRST FOR HARRINGTON The annual Hong Kong International Sale is truly one of a kind, as it brings together 3-year-olds bred and sold in both hemispheres to be offered exclusively to members of the Hong Kong Jockey Club. On paper, the 2017 renewal of the auction, held under the lights in the parade ring at Sha Tin Racecourse Friday evening, would have plenty to do to compare with the previous get-together, which produced an HK$8.5-million topper and a true contender for this Sunday=s Hong Kong Derby in the form of Pakistan Star (Ger) (Shamardal). Only time will tell if the racetrack results match the sales sheets, but records tumbled Friday evening when a striking son of the late Hussonet eclipsed the eight-figure barrier when selling for HK$10.5 million (,1,095,462/US$1,352,222). The average of HK$4.51 million was 7.8% ahead of last year=s figure, while the median price jumped by 20%.
