Ballymore Novice Hurdle 2019

Sounds to me like if Al Dancer wins the Betfair Hurdle Dai Walters wants Angels Breath to come here

which would be fair enough from his point of view.
Henderson will need to be persuasive indeed.
 
That's why I backed him at 55.0 the other day as posted on here. I don't need that stress

Still hope he goes supreme fwiw

Meanwhile Galvin wins 5 in a row over 2m at Ayr giving Ronnie a Supreme option.

I copied that bet. But it took a few days to get a match at 50's for what I wanted on. Just checked and all matched now.
 
Means watching the race tomorrow will not be a particularly pleasurable experience as even if AB wins well it means the door to this race opens a little further. I’m with COD hoping AI gets turned over on Saturday.
 
Might be worth a small double. AB ballymore and the other horse BF hurdle

Had a look at galvin last night for the supreme, but decided it was just gordon getting out a summery shirt cos all his others are in the wash. But owt could win the supreme this year, like the last couple.
 
“We’ve got two horses. We don’t want to run them against each other. It’s two miles three and a half furlongs tomorrow. I think after Saturday we should see where the horses are going” Dai Walters on ATR

Ouch.

I've had the double at 230/1 ew then on the Supreme rather than this weekend

That's the opposite of what he said first.

I might have to take the risk at 20s again

I’ve covered with a small double on AD winning the Betfair & Angel’s the Ballymore, as you would think that AD would have to win and win well on Sat for there to be a possible change of plan. Currently 83/1 with 365,

Sorry just seen I was a little slow there:sleeping:
 
What do think the chances of Aramon turning up in the Ballymore instead of the SNH?? I’ve got a decent cash out option on a Lucky 63 with Aramon at 15’s In it

Not too sure what Mullin's has for Ballymore, but he doesn't look to have a surefire winner of the Supreme, so i'd doubt it. Judging by the comments if it turned out good at fez, it would be KD stepping up
 
I really hope KD stays in the SNH, I’ve got a decent double carrying over from DRF on him and it will be void if he rides in the Ballymore. I assume City Island is not good enough as Mullins main entry in the Ballymore?
 
I’ve topped up a bit of 70.0 for Tornado Flyer
I know this suggests he is a non-runner but I’m willing to take the risk for minimal amounts.

I’ve now got on the exchanges at an average of 60/1, having cashed out 25/1 slips for profit it’s essentially a free bet
 
No one seems as panicked as me about Angel's Breath :(


If he wins tomorrow, he gets shorter for both...

but surely Henderson will be able to argue to keep him in the Supreme?

He will have to tell Dai Walters that Champ/Birchdale will crush him

He might be already telling him that Champagne Platinum will crush him in the Supreme :devilish::highly_amused:
