2026 BetMGM Cup Handicap Hurdle (previously Coral Cup)

when does 365 allow the cashout/refund of non runners in the NRMB markets following todays news, anyone know ?
 
Best years yet entered, We're running it back but I doubt we'll get the 50/66s we got last year on him !
66/1 Coral and 50/1 Pipe with Denise NRNB.

Was trying to find the post from last year when someone made an appealing case for him. Thought it might have been @nortonscoin200 but can’t find the post.

Noticed Brassil has entered him this Saturday, presumably a pipe opener ahead of the Festival, @darlojim I think you might have a contact with the Mulryans - have you heard anything about Best Years Yet?

Yeah had a setback last christmas in the run and needs the run this weekend for fitness.

Slight wires crossed as regards target at the minute though

** Ain't got Wings was their one this year though, an unusual pelvis fracture he got in the DRF unfortunately

Declared for the weekend, I've had a swing at 85/1 for the coral cup on the machine

Best Year’s Yet 131.

Nice mark if there’s hidden ability..
Might be a close thing getting in. Jake Price says that the average Bottom weight in the last 10 years is 133.4lb. Also, this year, the number of runners is reduced by 2 to 24.
 
….Air of Entitlement given 139, 31st on the list (max 24), previous festival winner but done little since, hits plenty of trends. Not sure of target but 40-1 NRNB.

155 for The Yellow Clay seems harsh, but thats probably some bias in there.
 
Patrick....

Have you picked out anything for the handicaps?
Jump Allen looks relatively unexposed and might emulate what Jimmy Du Seuil did last year

Handicapper is bias towards elliott every year after he was racking up the handicaps a few years ago.

Nearly everything he enters gets slapped with a hefty tax. If they were trained by De bromhead they'd all be a couple pounds lower.

He's 155 in IRE. He got zero tax and was the best treated Irish horse.
