Supreme Novices Hurdle 2020

[AnFiieLD.]

Jon Snow
4g Le Havre - Saroushka
Mrs S Ricci
3
He won a 1m4f maiden at Maisons-Laffitte last year and is a promising type for novice hurdles. He started off over 2m at Cork on Sunday but his lack of experience found him out and his jumping over the last three hurdles let him down. He might need to go up in distance.

JS more of a Ballymore type but you’d have to be discouraged by his performance today. Will need to step up significantly if he’s to feature at the festival come March.

I wouldn’t be shocked to see him turn up here depending on how Mullins other touted novices perform
Fly Smart - Supreme
Jon Snow - Ballymore
Blue Sari?

I wouldnt worry where he goes tbh. I'm still embarrassed i backed him when I was certain he wasnt "the one". Even with a free bet.

I only backed him because you talked him up. Can I have my £10 back please ?

I talked up jon snow? Really?

Unimpressed by Jon SNow, but as his price is the same I cashed out for a 50p loss, so no harm no foul.

I basically don't trust anything that comes out of the mouth of Gordon Elliot. I was at a betfair preview night a few years ago and in the Q&A off camera i was amazed at how he knew he price of absolutely everything. Wouldn't even be surprised if Malone Road turned up tbh

[ComplyOrDie]

Asking for your money back for following someone on here? We should all be worried now!

Jon Snow was worth the free bet though, certainly not embarrassed by it, and back him 'any race' for cash because I wasn't convinced he wouldn't go up in trip anyway, which I think I had mentioned somewhere.

One maiden defeat is not the end of the world, but I do think, as many do in here, that Fly Smart is most definitely the Ricci Supreme horse.

[Scooby91]

Ricci has 17 novices alone.
Fly smart a likely one, from macaire as many before him, smooth aqps win before a tenderly handled 2nd on debut over hurdles to retain his novice status, been with mullins since 18/11/2018. Which is the timeline of the likes of vautour/ klassical dream.... Everything screams it.

However once again ricci alone, has 17.

John snow wouldnt be ringing alarm bells for me, hes ground dependant to a point they couldnt get him out last year, when he was sound throughout, off the flat with slightly worse form to riccis triumph horse who was disspointing to my eye. But who knows...


Havent bought the book myself, but whatever goes blue on oddschecker in the middle of the week, is what hes put up in mark howards book. And will get steam rolled into fav.

Just checked the whole thread, apart from saying on form he shouldn't win his novice hurdle, the above message is the only time iv mentioned him.

Certainly sounds like it. His French form has been franked beyond belief. Looking forward to him making his debut.

Keep hearing good things about Fly Smart topped up me free bet on sky bet with him earlier. On at 33/1 and 25/1's at the moment.

Malone Road being backed on exchanges, they say probably which leaves the door ajar.

Malone Road, as short as 9-1 for the Supreme Novices' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival in March, will not race this season.

The five-year-old has been ruled out by the same knee issue that forced him to miss the Champion Bumper last season, for which he had been favourite.

Trainer Gordon Elliott said on Monday: "Unfortunately Malone Road has a problem with the same knee he chipped last season. He's a very good horse and we were hoping to run him in novice hurdles but that won't be happening this season."



The son of Kalanisi won his only point-to-point before roaring home in two bumpers at Down Royal and Punchestown last November. He is owned by Cheveley Park Stud who landed the Champion Bumper with Envoi Allen.

Elliott said of Envoi Allen, who made a winning debut over hurdles this month: "He'll be entered for the Monksfield Novice Hurdle at Navan on Sunday along with Fury Road and Abacadabras, and we'll decide on plans later in the week. But Envoi Allen could wait for the Royal Bond at Fairyhouse the following Sunday."

Rich Ricci’s Manager Joe Chambers was on a phone-in to Luck on Sunday yesterday and when asked which horse he was most looking forward to this season, that had either run or not run so far he said CHACUN POUR SOI, and then added the four-year old FIGAROC

But Envoi Allen could wait for the Royal Bond at Fairyhouse the following Sunday."

Would be a strange race for Abacadabras to go for if they're considering him a supreme horse wouldn't it? Fury Road also if he was to go for the potato race.
Can't see Elliott now sending both Abacadabras and EA to the royal bond as he first stated was a good possibility

Please don't think I was serious ?!

[Kevloaf]

Please don't think I was serious ?!

I don't think anyone does.



Ziiiiiiiiiiiing




I feel like I'm doing really well in the Supreme this year because I haven't backed much in it so far.
What a difference a year or two makes
