JLT Novices 2018

Looks like that money is only going one way as post race comments suggest RSA. The 14/1 carrot did look too big. Still he did lead over the longer trip at both Cheltenham and Punchestown and get beat so perhaps he isn't quite the stayer they think he is?

which horse are you talking about that's 14/1? Or looks like Monalee so I'm confused haha

I was replying to my own post about Monalee. I wish it was a different horse that might turn up. These trainers have got no idea.

when was he 14/1?
 
Ive only seen 14s available for the JLT

Ah, Now I follow.

I agree, i took 12s NRNB JLT a few weeks back. Almost certainly posted about it
 
I took 10s NRNB before the weekend, it's the perfect race for him. Not only that but looks like it'll cut up a bit.

Bet365 latest odds NRNB

4s Willoughby Court - would imagine he runs and goes off shorter
5s Invitation Only - Ruby confirmed RSA
6s Footpad - Surely goes Arkle
6s Monalee - HdB suggesting RSA
7s Yanworth - Has other options, probably goes RSA or stayers over this
8s Petit Mouchair - Surely goes Arkle
8s Al Bum Photo - Probably the WM horse for this.
10s Finian's Oscar - Finished distressed last time out horse been messed around all season.
10s Benetar - Surely not good enough

You sure ruby confirmed rsa for invitation only??
 
I'd have .
Yanworth RSA
Invitation only
Dounikos
Alboum photo
Monalee

Winning the rsa AND jlt between them. No real preference who goes where other than yanworth.
 
I still think the story teller is cracking ew value at 25/1 nrnb for the jlt if he can avoid the majority of the flogas runners

What do you make of Sutton Place now Scooby? I had high hopes for him before the weekend run.

So did I. He missed one and that was it for his chances.
In my honest opinion He wont go to Cheltenham. Any thing extra would be a bonus.

I'd give him a good chance wherever he goes

Agree.

Maybe back over hurdles eventually?

Can't see him going to Cheltenham either now.
 
I thought that Sutton Place would win yesterday. For me, Geraghty had a very poor day. Let Espoir D'Allen go too free and failed to complete in 3 chases, 2 on the favourite.

Al Boum Photo looks like a stayer to me but his destination may depend on what they do with Monalee.

I've absolutely no inside information on this but, to my eye, Invitation Only doesn't appear to see out his races when under pressure and I'd be surprised if he could win a championship race at Cheltenham.

Think thats quite harsh archie myself! Battled all the way to the line yesterday and was beaten less than a length by Monalee in a truly top class race. Seemed to give his absolute all to me, just wasn't quite good enough.

Do You by any chance know anything about the well being of tin soldier? Archie. Not for a betting angle just really like the horse and he took a nasty tumble and not heard or seen anything since.

I haven't heard anything, Scooby, but I'll ask the question.
