Supreme Novices 2017

Melon is strong enough on the machine today LR but he was weak yesterday afternoon.
 
I think it's the Nrnb bookies realising that he was completely the wrong price for the supreme, rather than people following the crowd.

:encouragement: Money in their satchels for a week or so .... they can boast about the money taken overall .... I think NW is nailed on to go for the Neptune and this is just a bit of bookies hoping ther money that went in, never comes back out.... easier to spend when it is already in there?
 
Fehily said at preview last night it would have to be very soft for Neon wolf to go here

Let's Dance

No Finians Oscar, so he looks Neptune bound. Surprised to see Let's Dance left in.

Lets Dance still left in the Supreme at this declaration stage. My 14/1 ticket is still live, but for how long lol
 
This is how i've priced up the Supreme.

Note that i haven't included some horses that are 50/50 for that reason- Neon Wolf the main absentee but he's probably less than 50/50 to come here. Lets dance no chance + Airlie Beach same.

Factored in WPM comments re Melons work at home + Ruby rides.
MWTT eye catching last nov in chelt, and ran ok vs BA in Betfair giving pound..upgraded him.

16 / 1 High Bridge
25 / 1 Pingshou
33 / 1 Beyond Conceipt
33 / 1 Elgin

Do any of these prices astound you or interest you?

Pingshou much shorter than I was hoping for :devilish:

Ruby says it's not confirmed he rides Melon. Heard today Neon Wolf might go in the Supreme.
 
So many mixed messages about Lets dance anything is possible. Champagne Fever made a late switch too. They have been at this for years.
 
No Bunk Off Early jack?
 
Moon Racer for me if he turns up in this. He's just got that extra gear that I don't think many of these have and they won't be able to live with him when he turns it on. Should be a Champion Hurdle horse for a reason in my humble opinion.

Still intrigued by Crack Mome on a bit of good ground, and also still like Elgin as an each way punt - think he'll look better on a stiffer track if he can jump a little better. That's well priced in for me though.
 
The more I look at this the more I think Crack Mome could be value, well regarded and excuses last time out. Those that were in behind him have by and large done well since, looks sure to improve for better ground and a strong pace
 
I think it's telling that Willie picked Crack Mome for the Moscow Flyer and that he went off 4/11. But I thought he looked a long way from the finished article that day. Will need to have matured an awful lot in a short space of time.

But looks a lively outsider.
