2026 Juveniles

'Educational' ride. Must be tight enough to get in though, no?
I wouldn’t have thought so. Finished 4th in the Grade 2 at Cheltenham, beaten 15 lengths so likely be low 120’s Irish and likely get a bit tax.
 
Lovely ride from hughsey there at Mussy on Secret Force.
They'll be getting serious with him at home now I reckon, I'd have prefered a bit closer but Jimmy knows, just interviewed and gave little away other than he's being aimed towards a race at Cheltenham.
126ish I reckon.

Let’s hope so, it helped that he made a right hash of the 2nd and lost position. Cracking ride from Tristan on the Skelton mare as well.

Listening to David Casey on the Irish Field preview for the DRF, he was very bullish on Narciso Has put him up for his best bet

….i think Kevin Blake gave it as his best bet too.
 
Ruby fancied him as well on racing post pp preview.
 
Wow.....they are all taking a chance 😄

We are all going to get rich backing him.

Pundits eh?!
 
….W Mullins;

Bertutea; ‘He won well on very testing ground over Christmas and will be suited by the prevailing weather conditions. We’ll get a line on where he sits with the bigger picture of the juveniles at Leopardstown.’

Narcisco; ‘It’s a good renewal of the race and we’re very happy with where we have Narcisco Has at the moment. He did everything right at Christmas and I’m hoping he’s come on again for that run and experience. He reopposes with Mange Tout who beat him at Fairyhouse and I’m hoping our fella has improved again from Leopardstown, but at the ratings Mange Tout looks very good. I’m sticking with my horse though.’

Selma; ‘She’s a nice import from France who does things nicely. I expect her to improve a fair bit for this run though. She has plenty of experience but had a break when she came over to us and whatever she does on Saturday, she’ll improve plenty for it.’
 
Narciso Has the Super Boost with 365.....🫣
 
Love a bit of Mange Tout, but Immediate Effect hadn't a clue on debut but won well, might be worth a small interest here, North Shore I'm hoping for improvement from lto.
 
Tit of a thing isn't it,either that or Paul Townend grew overnight 😆
