Tatenen 7/2 for the Arkle

[RussP]

Would you be lumping on at that price? It's surely got to be Evs on any horse actually making the Festival at this stage of the season. Let's be fair, it's beat fcuk all. Straw Bear is much better on a flat track and isn't a good jumper. Tatenen had it all its own way and, whilst it was impressive, it will surely face a far stiffer task in March. Plenty of potential, but plenty that could go wrong. Good luck to those of you who back it.....not for me!

i agree, whatever happens between now & March, that price may change. Last year Noland was all the rage & we stayed with Tidal Bay who was 8/1 on the day! We may not have even seen the Arkle winner yet this season!"
