Fat Jockey - Day Three Festival Yankee - Captain is jonthehammer

My offerings -

Sire De Berlais - Pertemps - compensation awaits for the failure of last year's plunge. A year in the making and still a decent price.

Epatante - MNH - in the absence of a Mullins hotpot, some of the Henderson stable think she's their best novice. Might have gone to the Supreme if she hadn't had a setback.


Itsallguesswork - Kim Muir - eyecatcher over hurdles latest. High profile jockey likely.
 
I like First assignment too for the Pertemps , Lost in Translation - j.l.t, Happy diva - plate , and
maybe Penhill - stayers hdl.,
 
Notwhatiam for the Pertemps, looks like a plot, running in rear on most recent run, and staying on well.

Faugheen
Sancta Simona

Sire De Berlais
Kilbricken storm
Road To respect

I'm liking the Sire de Berlais noise so happy to throw my weight behind this one...
 
I am thinking Sire De Berlais is the first one on the docket gents.

Sorry not been on much lately as had a mad week but got all day to myself tomorrow to read up a bit more.
 
JLT - Vinndication
Ryanair - Monalee
Stayers - Killbricken Storm
Brown Plate - Janika
 
Stayers - Kilbricken Storm
Pertemps - Sire de Berlais
Ryanair - Frodon
Brown Plate - Janika
 
I really cannot see Paisley Park being beaten in the stayers, I am very tempted to throw him in as the 'banker' with 3 others.

Paisley Park (maybe) - Or Kilbricken storm as a few of you seem to like him (I don't but willing to go with the flow)
Sire Du Berlais

Need some strong cases gents for others, possibly the handicaps.

Epatante won’t be beaten
 
Sinoria - mares novice hurdle.

All the rest, barring Posh Trish look a little too precious.
You need balls to win this race.
unless you're a real talent.
Which Epatante could be, but too much blather from that yard for my liking.

I must admit I am on at 7/2 so maybe that is the banker and I throw KS in

So we would have

Sire Du Berlais
Kilbricken Storm
Epatante

I have 4/1 all the way down to 6/4

Honeysuckle out of the race ans receiving 5lbs from posh Trish. She ought to be shorter than 6/4 based solely on the turn of foot she showed at Kempton. She looked special.

If she was a Mullins mare with her profile, she’d be 4/6.
 
J.l.t - Lost in Translation.
Pertemps - First assignment.
Mares nov - Posh trish.
K.muir - Kilfilum cross.

If she was a mullins mare she'd have a better chance.
She's a big baby and way too short a price based on the races she's ran in.
Posh Trish and Sinoria have already been to senior school and started smoking.

Good luck though as she looks talented and could easily win.
Just don't fancy her myself, even at 4-1.
 
That 5 lb she gets [Epatante] is countered by the way they got it.... avoiding having a hard race.

She'll need to be a very good'un to win it with her prep IMO.


Henderson does talk up similar types, I am not against her strongly, just she's a short price in a race with loads of unknowns and some rock solid each way opposition?

Absolutely, and them making out they were shrewd in doing so is bizarre.
But they may well be proved right.
