Harchi makes you think. Although he jumped the last still hard held, i wasn't sure if he'd win. He's probably the only horse you could say that about. Even jumping the last i thought Al Eile might just battle him out of it.
I wish i had watched the in-running betting, i doubt too many people were wanting to risk too much on him even jumping the last.
Out of all the hurdlers running at the moment, i don't think i could name one who has as much ability as he does, well Inglis Drever perhaps (two completely different horses).
I'd love to see a race made for these bridle horses. That would be some sight. Harchibald Vs Black Jack Ketchum jumping the last both hard held. What happens? discuss.
