    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    Very impressive Fire Warning, especially as I think there were 2 or 3 nice ones in behind. Looked a much better race than division 1, let's see what the clock says.

    2026 Juveniles

    Munsif ran a nice race again before once again folding in the final furlong. They might want to get his wind done and get him qualified for the Fred Winter

    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    Sober Glory 3.38s above standard on good-soft, not at all ridden out in the last furlong. That's a pretty decent time and confirms the visual impression. Let's see how the 2nd division goes time wise.

    2026 Champion Hurdle

    Re Poniros - terrible stat for 5YOs in the Champion Hurdle to overcome, but in a weak year, who knows? Could do an Espoir D'Allen.

    2026 Juveniles

    Wednesday is a big day for Joe Donnelly juveniles with Macho Man running at Fairyhouse for WPM and the horse he beat into 2nd at Auteuil, Feel Gut, making his debut for NJH at Newbury. Donnelly must have liked that Auteuil race to buy the first two ..................

    Got some 25/1 e/w about The Reverend for the Supreme via my brother-in-law. Let’s see what he does at the DRF.

    2026 Gold Cup

    Always thought the RSA Chase (or whatever it is called these days) takes an awful lot out of a novice. Not a bad idea to give him an easy reintroduction this season.

    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    His Cheltenham run was on the new course? I personally think the difference between the 2 courses is not so relevant for the Supreme but am happy to be corrected.

    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    The top of the Supreme market is really weird at the moment. The shortest 2 Irish runners both fell last time out and sandwiched between them is an ex-Nicholls runner who seems to have been rejuvenated by Nicky The Needle. I still think The Reverend is way too big at 20s. Living in Germany, I am...

    Don't think we've seen the Supreme winner there

    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    I like 2 with a football connection (via their owners) for the Supreme - firstly, Tony Bloom's The Reverend who was very decent on the flat for William Haggas (rated 96, won some big staying handicaps) and dotted up at Cork on hurdles debut. Has a DRF entry and is currently 25/1 for the Supreme...

    You think he can turn it around with Nab Wood? Especially with the additional few pounds the British handicapper will give him?

    2026 Novice Hurdlers

    I wonder what price I'll Sort That would have gone off today if he were trained by Willie Mullins? Going into the race he was unbeaten in 3 over hurdles, including winning a Grade 3 last time, and was already rated 136. He must be heading towards the mid-140s after that win? Always difficult to...

    2026 Gold Cup

    Because it costs basically peanuts so his get entered for pretty much any races they can think of.

    2026 Champion Chase

    That's my free tenner down the drain (although I did get some 20s on Jango Baie for the Gold Cup on the same day so its not all bad news). I also backed The Jukebox Man to win the King George :)

    2026 Champion Hurdle

    Deep down, they know that she has a better chance of winning the mares hurdle. However you want to slice it, they don't fancy her chances against Sir Gino. You shouldn't be afraid of one horse, but the Closutton operation play the probabilities, thats why they have had more than 100 festival...
