Altior will get taken off his feet in the always strongly run Supreme. Whatever kick he's got will be completely negated. I see this as similar to Irving's performance against Vautour, he'll have nothing left when Min strings them out.
Loking forward to it, always a great tactical race.
Todays sea of blue for Yorkhill has ignited a nice ante post bet for me that I thot was a lost one.
Could this be a false gamble by the bookmakers? I was reading the Racing Post Cheltenham guide today and almost every bookie highlighted Min as their biggest liability for the fez. With all the non ante post punters yet to bet could this be an attempt by the bookies to shift some further liability away from Min by making out that Yorkhill is the Mullins horse to be on??
Min may be a big single liability for bookies but they will all be sitting pretty given the cash banked through the defection of Faugheen, all the accas involving Min and him are toast, must have trousered millions without raising a sweat, anything they do now to manipulate prices is down to sheer greed, don't trust them and take all talk of losses with a pinch of salt
Moon Racer ruled out. Aintree and Punchestown now the aim according to Pipe. Was crazy thinking about going for the supreme with no experience over hurdles.
Does that mean Bellshill will be switching the Supreme? I notice he's still entered in the Albert Bartlett
Penglai P jocked up.![]()
I’ll be riding Penglai Pavilion in the Supreme Novice Hurdle [on Tuesday], he was fifth in the Arc, that’s the sort of horse that John Ferguson has brought to the sport.
