        I'd be inclined to think that they reckon he's gone as far as he can in graded hurdles with good youngsters coming through and handicaps off 159 will be difficult. If he's schooled ok then why not give it a go as reverting to hurdles is still an option.

            ...the 20-1 Albert Bartlett might get nibbled at now.

              • I think 2021 will be my first year moving onto singles on the exchange as an antepost play. Will still do the multis on the main books but keen to get on the singles this year as that has been laking from my book until now.

                    I don’t disagree CHG, but in the back of my mind I know that the exchanges are full of people who know alot more than me especially regarding a horses wellbeing and target, so what appears great value could easily be the less scrupulous taking advantage.
                    Obviously this far out no NRNB exists anyway so the risk is the same but I’d start seeing a red flag if orders kept getting taken...

                      Patrick Mullins ‘He’s a horse of Rich’s, has very good form in France, got a few little setbacks this year, nothing major but enough not to get to the track so we’ll go novice hurdling next year but he’s a horse that we like a lot.’

                      AIONE
                      Patrick Mullins (is he going over fences) ‘Oh definitely, he’s a ready made chaser, 16 2, 16 3, he’s a big strong horse. He’d be one I might have my eye on for the 4 miler maybe.’

                        The presenters butchered the pronunciation of a horse I put up the other day (Gaillard Du Mesnil) and confused Patrick into talking about another horse

                        Seems like my shortlist was popular as they also brought up Aione as well.

                          Good early shout on Aione. The 66/1 will soon be gone.

                              ....80-1 available with Ladbrokes boost, looks like 66-1 now gone with cash-back option.

                                I missed the 80/1 by seconds. It was in my betslip, deposited the money and they'd halved the price

                                Had 0.5pt on B365
