Ballymore Novice Hurdle 2019

If I knew Champ was going to go off 6/4 I'd be taking the 3/1 now and have him running for free after laying it off on the day.


Fill me with confidence Innoko...

Henderson was talking as though the dovecote wouldn't be the choice, and any old novice race with a biggish field would be prefered

But it will be interesting now what he does, as winning the dovecote impressively would be better for the discussion of race targets with the owner. Assuming Henderson still wants to go to the supreme with it.

Your properly right, I was just reading this and it seems he could end up here..

Nicky Henderson remains keen to give Angels Breath another outing ahead of a likely tilt at the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle at Cheltenham.

The Seven Barrows dogs have been barking the five-year-old’s name for some time and an impressive debut under rules in the Kennel Gate at Ascot in December saw him shoot to the head of ante-posts lists for the traditional curtain-raiser at Prestbury Park next month.

He has not been seen in competitive action since – having been denied an intended appearance in last week’s Sidney Banks Memorial Novices’ Hurdle at Huntingdon due to the sport’s enforced shutdown over of equine influenza.

Speaking at Sandown on Friday, Henderson aid: “I’m stuffing him full of entries over the next week. I would rather run him in a little novice hurdle and get him dropped in behind some other horses than fuss about a Dovecote (at Kempton, February 23), but he might well finish up there.”

I wouldn't lay that at evens!


Still a bit annoyed I didn't take the price after it was put up at double digits.
 
Dan Skelton believes Beakstown is ready to take on the Ballymore Novices’ Hurdle big guns next month.

The Alcester trainer has confirmed the six-year-old will head to Cheltenham, rather than waiting for Aintree, following his Grade Two win at Warwick last time out.

Beakstown is a general 16-1 shot for two-mile five-furlong prize, but Skelton insists he would not swap his big-race hope for any of the other contenders at the head of the market.

Skelton said: “Beakstown is definitely going for the Ballymore, and that is the main thing. I’ve been very happy with him since Warwick.

Another one to the pot. Looking forward to this.
 
Had a saver on Aramon at 210. You never know with Willie.
 
Champ & Champagne Platinum come here, Birchdale & Dickie Diver for the AB.

Cashed out all bets on CP (Supreme) & Birchdale (Ballymore) just in time it seems.

Yes.

Could all change I guess though if any unfortunate injuries occur.
 
Surprised at Champagne Platinum.

22s available. I know some like him, step up a positive?
