2026 Novice Hurdlers

That 66/1 was a price differential that has lasted much longer than I expected.

100%

Plenty times a Willie novice expected to go one way end up going the other

Free hit you'd like to think aswell if he comes out and wins his maiden
 
Is it a wild notion to think that Willie might chance Sortudo at 2m in the DRF, 3 weeks & a couple of days is a quick turnaround, had the original date gone ahead it would be a lot more feasible.

In saying that he is a hardy buck that takes his racing very well & showed his best at Punchestown when less robust types perennially fold. The entry was a bit of a clue in itself.

Small chance he could back him up, though it did seem a little bit of a grueller of a race
 
….Lazare de Star turned over at odds-on at Naas. I notice a few Nathaniel Lacy WTAF offers for him, presume he won’t be running at DRF.

Odd that he went back in trip today after being so impressive over 2 1/2 last time. At least we know he's one who won't be going Supreme!😂

Old Park Star very weak in betting today. Maybe it's going to be one of those days again.
