Ballymore Novice Hurdle 2019

Birchdale looking like swerving Balllymore. Who'd have thought it, eh?
 
I know City Island didn't have a lot to beat there. Was that impressive though?

He was alright... if you've already backed you wouldn't be put off?

If you hadn't backed him, you wouldn't have tried to back him on the back of that win at 1/5?

Was an awful race. His forms nothing good too . He's only shortened as he's a confirmed runner. In a field with very little confirmed runners.
 
Champ boosted to5/1 with hills for anyone who sees him as a banker or to top up .

cheers for that, boosted to 5.4 also.
there'll be a few on here sneakily have that one I reckon.
but won't admit to it.

was given a high RPR of 145 for that win. Higher than battleoverdoyen and many others.
Not sure why, but suppose the time was decent due to the pacesetter.

Thanks for the post and mention, finally covered 👍 along with there standard boost 5.5’s probably the best I could hope for and won’t be bigger on the day 🙂
 
Paddy power Stand out 6-1 for Klassical dream for this race Now .Everyone else double figures.

7/1 the same as he is for the Supreme.

Betfair (PP sister company) are 10/1 for the Ballymore (not NRNB) and 8/1 for the Supreme (again, not NRNB).

I can't remember the last time Mullins ran a Deloitte winner in the Ballymore, maybe someone would know.

Bacardys two years ago but, to be fair, the Deloitte was 2m2f in those days.
 
Was just pointing out the move , K.D third favourite behind Lets'gochamp and B.o.D now with Paddy's.

Oh yeah, that one ended well :devilish:

Hoping it's just the fact KD is the Mullins no.1 that sees him coming in for support for both races. Be surprised, and unlike Mullins not to have run KD over a further distance before putting him in such a race too.
