Think a fair few of us got our fingers burnt last year but 365 now have the bumper market up and have Jasmin De Vaux at 50/1. He’s 20/1 with Hills and was mentioned by Willie as one likely going down the bumper route this year. Not one I know too much about other than a p2p winner for the Crawfords so assume he’s probably with Souede and Munir. One for some of the goals giveaway bet credits maybe

Anyone worked out the bumper horse Patrick hinted at ??
by noble mission?
 
Is it worth my trying to unsuspend my PP account after being restricted by BF and Sky seeing as they are owned by the same cretins? I haven't used the account for years. From memory there was some law change years back where they needed ID and I never bothered sending them it.
 
The restrictions on my PP, BFSB & Skybet accounts have been at completely different levels so definitely worth a look. How much personal information you want to give them is a different matter though! :barbershop_quartet_member:

Gave up trying to work it out. From memory Noble Mission went to U.S for stud duties so he's unlikely had any traditional NH mares sent his way. I don't recall any progeny at any of the major sales either.

There's always some other fucker who's sadder than yourself.
I always take solace in that.
Usually takes 30 seconds on here to reaffirm :highly_amused::loyal:

Me and another went through all the sales of his progeny and couldn't find any relating to Willie. Other than that, I'm stumped.
 
Bumper horse by Noble Mission entered at Cheltenham on Saturday called Catch Yourself On. Owned by Paul Byrne and very much a flat bred type.

Turned out that checking his entries was a lot easier to find him :miserable:
 
Brighterdaysahead given a 124 rpr for hurdles debut.

Compares favourably to recent MNH winners.

You Wear It Well 106
Love Envoi 115
Telmesomethinggirl 114
Concertista came second in the MNH on debut, given 138. Then clocked 124 next time out.

I feel like I'm gonna be that guy all this year, and I know someone on here showed that the RPRs actually matched quite well to historical values in terms of their performance at the festival last year (possibly The Giant Bolster ?), but it's hard for me to take a 124 RPR performance at face value when it means the horse in 2nd, beaten 10 lengths ran a 6lb PB and the horse in 4th, beaten 21 lengths ran an 8lb PB.

Even reducing by the 8lb for the horse in 4th to have ran to form (which I'd question in itself, but could accept as a benchmark), it compares really nicely with Love Envoi and TMSG though so hopefully a positive sign for all you backers :encouragement:
 
Someone has just been laying Delta Work for XC on exchange at 100-1 and 110-1.
Only 8 pounds in total, but still.
Had a fiver myself. :highly_amused:
