    2026 BetMGM Cup Handicap Hurdle (previously Coral Cup)

    Skelton namechecks Kateira for this at 40s as his 'dark horse' for the festival. Probably be 10/1 by tomorrow morning knowing the bookies

    ‘26 FRED WINTER Juv H’cap Hd

    Going to be very tight for Munsif I'd say, hard to see many coming out above him - not that many with other entries bar the top 3 and a couple of the Gigginstown horses.

    2026 Ultima Handicap

    The more I think about In D'Or the more I like him, the form really stacks up. How many horses won over fences for Maxwell in non-amateur races? Think Cat Tiger in 2022 was the last one, and Ecu de la Noverie in 2019 before that. And he did it twice! 6th in that red hot NHC too. Paired with El...

    Gordon on the Tatts preview night suggesting Ballyfad could run in a soft ground Supreme - and Jack might even choose to ride him

    2026 Juveniles

    Also cashed out on Mange Tout after the DRF thinking she’d never reverse with Narciso now. I can already see what’s going to happen… Think Nicky suggested they were planning on saving Feel Gut for a Supreme campaign next year

    ‘26 FRED WINTER Juv H’cap Hd

    Hallgarten and Novum Wines realised no one was going to say the full name aloud and dropped out? Now appearing as the McCoy Contractors Fred Winter.

    2026 Pertemps Network Final Handicap Hurdle

    Looks like the bloke who's been riding it every race is the owner. Interesting he gives the ride up now, they must mean business tomorrow!

    2026 Ultima Handicap

    I'd be thinking along those lines with Western Knight - best run over hurdles was 3m round Cheltenham, and Tizzard has used the Reynoldstown as an Ultima prep for The Changing Man and Oscar Elite in the last few years. Does lack experience in big field handicaps mind.

    2026 Ultima Handicap

    Given the form of the yard I'd say any hopes of him bolting up anywhere might be a bit fanciful! As a backer, a nice 2L beating of Minella Drama over 3m round Kelso on Friday would be ideal. Though maybe their actual Ultima horse will be going there instead...

    ‘26 FRED WINTER Juv H’cap Hd

    From Gordon's stable tour: "We have a few in mind for the Fred Winter, with not only Highland Crystal and Mange Tout, but also Combs, Wackestone, Hardy Stuff, Lynches Knock and Barbizon in the mix at the moment."

    How bad are the rest of Willie's novices that he was supposedly working all over them on the gallops? 😆

    Wouldn't be shocked to see PDLN in a handicap, not many of Willie's novices have had enough runs

    If nothing else, just great to not have "which of Willie's is Paul going to ride?" as the main theme of conversation around a Supreme
