Ballymore Novice Hurdle 2019

I have the same bet with them. It’s sitting in my open bets and Al Dancer has a little red cross next to it which I assume means void. So it’ll just be a single.

I spoke to their online chat and they confirmed that they are void, even though the red cross makes it look like a loser.

I have a couple of similar bets and the red cross was worrying me.

Cheers FM. Assumed as it was still in my open bets that it was void rather than a loser, but good to know for sure! Would rather it was still running on the double though, at the bet value I’m not really fussed about having the single!
 
The reason why i want to place the double is because i consider it related but they really should be laying that bet in my opinion.

I'm amazed that they pick it up as related though Billy. Have you tried placing it in the shops?
 
I ended up doing the single on Al dancer with hills then as soon as he won i rolled over the stake and the profit at 20/1 with Betfred, they certainly cant have a problem with that!!!!
 
I’ll be absolutely gutted if Angels Breath goes here. Had decent e/w & win tickets at 33’s for the Ballymore after taking a position on his optimum trip re: breeding etc. that I cashed when the Sydney Banks was called off! I’ve no other bet in the Supreme so I’m all in on the 2m trip now. The likely truely run strong pace in the Supreme would see him win the Supreme for me anyway and the Ballymore is more of an open contest in my eyes. Hoping Nicky is stubborn & steadfast in his recommendation!
 
The more I look at Champ the more I get uneasy
I’m peeed off with Al Dancer as was holding like many others 10/1
 
Kateson was backed like a good thing before the off yesterday but just didn't settle. I expect he is capable of much better, but have to agree, along with Getaway Trump's performance doesn't say a lot for Champ.
 
Anyone feeling a little less certain of Champ, wait to the day and lay off at 6/4. :triumphant:
 
I've softened a little on Champ, as it's natural when the form takes knocks.
But it's worth remembering that the challow was very slowly run, and he beat them pretty easily considering, and he looks like a horse that would benefit off a stronger gallop.
He's underpriced though.
 
Yeah , I think with the Name , and the Connections , General public will go for it big time.

Don't worry
He's still up there for me.
Just been dethroned from my nap list for Sir Erec and Paisley Park.
 
Does Allaho go for this or the Albert Bartlett? I was seriously taken with his performance earlier in the week

Probably this race but difficult to be sure with Willie as a lot will depend on how all the horses are working the week before. Willie mentioned this race but as we know his comments just after a race are not always gospel. The race he won was a recognised Albert B trial, but as I say, he will probably see how they are all looking nearer the time - Carefully Selected, Easy Game, Klassical Dream, Aramon, Relegate, Annamix - even Tornado Flyer may suddenly sprout wings.
Cue - Allaho 100% runs here!

I'd think he'll go here. He only ran over 3m as he had no other choice.
All his other entries had been over shorter but was balloted out. And unable to run.
