2026 Novice Hurdlers

How many of these interviews/podcast things does Ruby do ?
Seems to be constantly out there with opinions....
afaik he just does the Paddy power one and Road to Cheltenham
 
King Rasko Grey, IMO.
I want him to run Rasko in the supreme, but im getting vibes it will be leader. Meaning I think Rasko goes Turners ...and yes thats my thinking also!
So it will be Leader SUP Rakso Turners and Doctor in AB .... I MEAN how wrong could that be ?
 
Could be horribly wrong. Only takes an injury. But yeah, that would be how I see it as well.

Mighty Park just been matched 14 and 14.5 for the Supreme for over a hundred
 
Glance at midnight brought and placed with Skelton.
Reckon they will go suprmeme or Turners still?
 
Risky business trading on exchanges if you're laying NRNB 7s though?

Wouldn't be reading too much into it though. All low level stakes and still shorter price with more traded on the Turners for him in the last 24 hours than Supreme.
 
Does anyone know what Willie Mullins is planning to do with Sober? I've backed him for the Turners but heard a word in any of the stable tours etc.
 
I keep thinking about that drift on King Rasko Grey in the tattersalls and the comments from Willie after about him looking like a mare in foal. Then he's been touched off in a photo in the race.

There's something in this I feel, can't quite put my finger on it or what I'm trying to say.

Perhaps he is a mare in foal and their pronoun is they
 
Gordon on the Tatts preview night suggesting Ballyfad could run in a soft ground Supreme - and Jack might even choose to ride him

Thinking out loud, he's got that close to winning being unfancied and not as fit. What does that say about the 1st & 2nd?

I can't get my head round that race.

Given the way the race was run the winner is a street better than the 2nd and 3rd on that running

Perhaps says more about ballyfad than talk the talk

I know this is the general consensus but I don't see it myself, he's won a head bob and closed tired horses. Jury's still out for me.

Given what I hear your correct but I have to go with my gut feeling.

Run that race again I could see all three win.

Tired horses? Do the finishing percentages back up that statement?

It's very simplistic to say all horses racing prominently are favoured to those held up in a slow run race imo. Regardless of finishing percentages...
