2023 Albert Bartlett Novices Hurdle

Didn't Gordon's comments on FDC the other day intimate he needed Soft ground to be at his best ?

 

[charlie]

Do you know what he put up for the Ryanair :highly_amused:

If its GL then bin bin bin :witless:

 

[Quevega]

If its GL then bin bin bin :witless:

How many of them quality horses has he got to beat now ?
Blue Lord ?
Fury Road ?
Shishkin ?
Fakir ?
Envoi Allen ?
Janidil ?
HEC ?

I actually think Fakir may skip the festival if he runs and wins Saturday.
I've backed them all (except shishkin) to be fair, at the same time as I backed GA Law a few weeks back, was banking on Allaho missing. Turned out well, unless Shishkin resurrects himself. :grief:

Not a lot of love for Shanbally Kid on BEX

Dooooooon't!!!!!! I was waiting to see how Monty gets on tomorrow.

 

[Kevloaf]

One thing we all know is stats were made to be broken

Ginto may well have done last year had tragedy not struck

Gordon would likely have 3 short priced novice chase favs had he not broken down

MP turner's
Ginto BANC
Gerri Colombe NHC

No 'may well' about it.

Ginto wins all!

RIP :sorrow:

I'm all for trends and all that but it's a new level of delusion to think because a 'tipster' has selected one it won't win...

I mean I've read some shite but that's right up there. GL all the same though

 

[Kevloaf]

Completely agree with all of this. My nagging doubt is that bloody entry over here where he was fishing for a mark. He got 141 which seemed so lenient. I just can't get it out of my head that he'll end up in a handicap.

Gigginstown don't want to win handicaps

They're as excited winning handicaps as I am at having to go to sleep when all we want is "one more beer"

Agree with this.

Gone at the game or not, 50/1 Tominator is better than a lot of the knockers have ever done :emmersed:

It's light hearted joshing based on his recent (appalling it must be said) record. I don't think it's as deep as you think

 

[Exar Essay]

Dawn Rising likely headed thisaway according to JOB. He’s not even getting a handicap entry apparently … :barbershop_quartet_member:

Tongue in cheek comments though aren't they

 

[Benjy23]

It's all lightly hearted. I've just slept through my stop, got off and now getting the train back the other direction FFS.

Happened to me a couple years ago, spent all my money on the night out too so had to ask somebody at the bus stop for two quid to pay for the bus to go back in the other direction. Was 4am in the morning and we were the only two there, he probably had flashes of that famous Kevin bridges story in his head - “give me a quid.... or your getting stabbed”

have another mate who fell asleep and woke up after the bus was finished for the night and the driver had went home and locked him in it without seeing him, he had to ring for someone to come and force the door open :glee:

Good stuff, hope it's true as really didn't want to be covering him for Martin Pipe at his current odds.

Deserves a shot at the better race.

 

[ComplyOrDie]

Corbetts Cross a NR today

 

[Madmoose]

Nr but the hills HVL today and this race with hills is still 7/1

 

[Dandrew99]

Anyone know why CC was pulled? Can't see anything. Really disappointing for the race, was looking forward to seeing him against HVL.

 

[Imperial Commander]

There are 2 more out now, 5 runner race. Soft ground so it shouldn't be that.....
