Vinndication today. Where if he shows at Chelt do we think he will end up chaps ? Jlt for me and still 33's available on 365.
Although he's showing only 20's for the RSA ?
 
Good Article in the R.Post website today, Ruby walsh .....On Mullins notorious late decision making ,
He's got an awful lot better , he used to be making decisions at quarter to ten in the morning.
He's doing it before he has his Toast at the minute.......:)

I've added him in the JLT to my small portfolio this morning ahead of the run

Though I have added him for the JLT at 33/1 think it's much more likely he bypasses the festival sadly. Just think he should have taken up his entry at Cheltenham last week and not doing so makes me think it's at the back of their minds. The Dipper on New Years day would have been my preferred target along the way as well but that'll be too close to today now.

If he does line up at the festival though - I'd be certain it'll be JLT

You’ll find plenty of chat on Vinndication on the JLT thread. Think it’s fair to say that the consensus believe 33/1 is a good price especially with 365 and the cash out option as there is a chance he will sidestep the Festival primarily based on comments the trainer made before this year’s Festival. In terms of trip trainer said earlier this season Arkle or JLT. Obviously the former would look off the cards and the way he stayed on on his debut you could understand why bookies priced him up shorter for the RSA. I’ve personally backed him for the JLT as best price, with 365, less competitive race and still the most likely target in my opinion. I also get some info via one of the owners so hoping i’ll find out before 365 if he does miss the Festival, will share anything on here if course. Anyway needs to win today first...been well supported
 
Very well supported opened up 13/8, hopefully he wins well today anyway

I think the same as you Jono , Unlikely to go to the festival , but have a 33-1 for the j.l.t , if he does.
 
Happy to go against the grain on this one. While it’s entirely possible of course, I’m just not seeing the evidence that indicates he is highly likely to side step the Festival. I was told last week that they were hoping to run him at Cheltenham last weekend if the rain came (admittedly in slight contradiction to trainer comments) and bearing in mind it was good ground there last week and soft at Ascot today that for me is the primary reason. I agree a good ground Festival would be a concern, but not convinced they are planning on by passing it just because it’s Cheltenham.

Actually just been text that JLT is still the plan so we will see
 
Fresh info from Kim today, says they were intending on running him at Cheltenham but ground forced there hand, like RC I’d be hopeful of a run in the JLT...

Bailey said: "This will tell us if he's any good or not as there will be no hiding place in what looks a strong race. I'm a big fan of Jerrysback, who won at Bangor, and Count Meribel has some good form in the book. Add to that Lil Rockerfeller, who has had only one slip up, and it looks a really good race.
"We were originally going to Cheltenham last weekend but the ground was too quick there and this slower surface is what he wants," Bailey added. "He's come on for his debut, but he'll have to have done."

That's great info RC.

To be fair, I always thought they missed it last year due to sore shins.

Yep I remember somebody posting that on the JLT thread, no reason to doubt that. With 365 of course the risk is definitely mitigated a fair bit

Just added Vinndication, can always cash out, and was one I had not touched.

I actually think it's quite insulting (but good for us) that he is a 33/1. Could you imagine an unbeaten Mullins horse, or better still, the price of Samcro for the race prior to him being confirmed as staying over hurdles?

Not really sure why it's taken me so long to get involved, possibly because I had my rose tinted's on for Voix Du Reve, but I am on now.
