  • Ohhh the lads a weapon!!

    • Ridden like they wanted to see what turn of foot he had, and he quickened away nicely for me.

      Ruby kept mentioning him as a stayer. I think he's their Ballymore horse, but a fair bit of bias in that comment, which I'll admit to.

      • Let's be realistic he's beaten a 131 rated mare who won't have liked the ground

        Not really sure we learnt much other than he's very useful but we knew that anyway

        • I thought he jumped slick, and motored away when asked, should go to the Supreme even if taking on Facile Vega.

          • He was absolutely electric over his hurdles aswell, Mullins bingo will be starting up again for the next 2 month, I'd say he is a bally type after that, but honestly think he'd go close in either race. Hard at it over 2m or use that turn of foot over the bally trip.

            Lovely to find a little gem

            • I've not backed impaire yet,
              he's one i've let go for now.
              But he jumps really well
              He did enough for me today to convince me to back him.
              But I'll do it nearer the day I reckon.
              I did expect him to go away a little more decisively when asked against that opposition, but that's a very minor point.

              • Agree he looks all over a Supreme type. I'd expect him to go straight there now. Over to Vega now.

                • Looks a ballymore animal for me aswell.

                  I haven't been overly taken with him though. That being said he's certainly very smart.

                    • Racing Twitter 95% convinced he's going Ballymore... When will they learn.

                      • IEP strikes me as a 'next year' horse...

                          I'd agree, well, middle distance optimum trip, learn what?

                            • Looks a chaser to me. Bare form of both wins are pretty poor but he has some gears. I think the Supreme is looking poor and he'd be a good second fiddle to FV. Prefer others for the Ballymore.

                              What do people think the odds would be on Mullins to not win any of the Cheltenham novice hurdles?
