2025 Novice Hurdlers

[ComplyOrDie]

Worst possible start for me!

Starting how yesterday ended.

[Burrough Hill Man]

Super race super ride. Having gears made the difference

And whilst the 5 year old Arkle stat remains the Challow Stat is now in the bin.

[Speedy17]

To everyone who slagged him, crabbed him, disregarded the Challow... Get it up ya

[FinalFurlong91]

That may be the most important winner in dan skeltons career

A huge huge thing for him to win that race for JP

Surely JP will start sending him more ammo now

The yellow clay ran a brilliant race. You'd imagine both him and final demand will be back next year for the BANC.

Gordon has had a lot of gallant 2nds in recent years hasn't in.

Brits up 5 to 3 in the Prestbury cup.

[DenmanSacre]

Top class form that. TNL and TYC hurdled better throughout than Final Demand. Plenty of gears for TNL. Like FF says, JP should start sending him some horses as he's shown he can get festival wins in the grade 1s and in the handicaps.

Ditto, was watching the money pile in for TYC rubbing my hands together!

Nicky isn't going to be around forever

I'd say Dan just put himself in pole position to get the good horses nicky gets sent atm when he calls it a day

It would put Dan in a position to dominate the trainers titles in the same way his mentor Paul Nicholls did.

May get the money back on the yellow clay in the BANC next year i reckon

I suspect that race was very strong form

Would love to see Dan go to punchestown with the new lion and take on kopek

I'm very much of the opposite opinion. I like The Yellow Clay but he's just solid for me, nothing more.

I still believe the Supreme will turn out to be the best of the novice hurdles this season.

That said, well done to all TNL backers, I certainly wasn't one of them, in fact I was very against him, but you can't win them all (or none at the moment for me ).

The 'horses that could run in the AB don't win the Turners' stat remains intact though.

Absolutely. Wasn't overly keen on FD as you may know, despite having him backed. That 2m6f race at the DRF will become the new Challow with regards to the Turners going forward now

Part of me is glad FD didn’t win as it might (hopeful maybe) make his BANC price more generous.

….6-1 pp/bfsb.

….6-1 pp/bfsb.

Garbage. Any other books? Not that it will matter as they’ll just follow the first price most likely.
