Yeah, big drift on the day, comments that may back this up.
FWIW Willie / Paddy wanted him to go to a bumper, and JP overruled them. So I suspect this assessment isn't too far off the money.
They'll assess the homework and ground imo. But the softer the ground, the more chance he'd go Turners. Willie always wary of bottoming a horse like him out in the spud race. History from the Leopardstown race is basically 50/50 either race but worth noting the most impressive winners have always gone the Turners.
On Road To Cheltenham, Ruby said he'd discussed the target of Dr S with WPM and Ruby is of the opinion that the Albert Bartlett is the race for him. Heavy ground might change things, but it'd be big odds on he goes 3 miles imo.
The prices suggest as much but given its Ruby, I'll say he goes Turners now
Hills only trimmed him to 40s from 50s . How confident are you he’ll pitch up? Any concern at all at Starzands subsequent exploits?
I hope they'd let him take his chance, think he's earned it with his progression.
Hope so, it's the only one i have backed him for. He has no chance in that Supreme. Could be a race for the ages with those 3 at the top of the market.
