Will Kauto Star match Dessert Orchid's record?

[oscar]

I bored you all silly over the rivals re-match at Cheltenham in march this year when what to me, is the greatest horse to grace British Horse-racing re-gained the Gold Cup.

On Boxing Day, he will compete to match Dessert Orchids record by winning his fourth consecutive King George Chase.

I will be there to see him again but as It stands, you will be lucky to get odds of 5/4 even at this early stage.

Get down the bookies now and ask for the best anti-post price for a sure winner on Boxing day.

Remembering how he jumped and ended striding away from rival 'Denman' by 13 lengths, I can not see any challenge to him for his record.

It's confirmed I will certainly be there Boxing day to see him compete for 'Dessy's' record.

Just can't wait

I just checked the Bookies. I hope you got your bets on when I first put this thread on.

Kauto Star already backed down to 10/11 Favourite.

Nothing will touch him.

Word from his stables is... He's fit... at his peak and un-stoppable. His rival 'Denman' and stable mate is recovering well from his near fatal fall at Aintree earlier this year.

Ok Folks.... It's confirmed.
After 'Denmans' near fatal fall at Aintree earlier this year, he will be running in The Cheltenham Gold Cup to try to take that Gold cup back from 'Kauto Star'.

The Gold cup is not until march 2010 but 'Kauto Star' is already the favourite. Now is your time to get the best anti-post price. The nearer it gets, the odds will get shorter. 'Kauto Star' of course is looking for the record of winning the Gold Cup for the 3rd time and rival 'Denman' who 'Kauto' beat into 2nd this year, will be looking for revenge.

At this stage I would reccomend a 1/2 reversed for-cast again with 'kauto star' and 'Denman'. If your looking for an outsider for a place, I will recommend 'Madison Du Berlais' . 'Forpadydeplasterer' and 'Neptune Collonges' who all ran and jumped extremely well at Cheltenham earlier in the year.

HRH The Queens horse 'Barbers shop' is entered but after what I saw at Cheltenham... i wouldn't bother !!

Ok... my bets are placed this morning for Boxing day.


What are the chances of a repeat of my predicting the First, second and third in order as I did in the Cheltenham Gold Cup?

Sadly, the much loved Exotic Dancer will be missing from the race after she collapsed and died at Aintree earlier this year. I will miss her absence. I saw her run many times and she was a fine Chaser and contender for a place.

News from those in the Know, is that Kauto Star is in his prime, he's fit, healthy and rearing to go to take Dessert orchids record. Denman has made a good recovery from his near fatal fall also at Aintree earlier this year.

My bets are:

1) Outright win.... Kauto Star
2) Straight Forecast.... Kauto Star and Forpaddyde Plasterer
3) Tricast fore-cast, Kauto, Paddy and Madison.
4) Denman for a place.



Do not back Barbers Shop.... It may be the Queens horse but It's a muppet.
