As mentioned at the start of the summer, July and August are going to be individual trainer themed yankees (as there is no new recent form for these yankees so themes seem a good idea).

July’s theme is going to be Willie Mullins.
 
Haut en Coleurs if you can pinstick the right target…
 
With seven of his already included, it's going to be interesting to see cases made for some of his less obvious chances!

Mullins 'Runners Up 21' Yankee

Kilcruit - Ballymore
Elimay - Mares Chase
Concertista - Mares Hurdle
Gaillard Du Mesnil - Marsh?/RSA? or Billaway - Foxhunters (Not priced up yet)
 
James du berlais - marsh
monkfish - gold cup
 
Thinks i will chuck Energumene for the Ryanair into the hat for this one.For some reason i dont see a Champion chase horse.
 
….very speculative, but good if we can select one or two for novice hurdles.
 
Classic Getaway (Albert Bartlett) 25/1. IMO he follows the same route as Monkfish to the Gold Cup 2024.
 
Mullins Horses “not backed so far” Yankee

Grangee - Mares Novice Hurdle 16/1
6th in the Champion Bumper at the Fez, staying on well.
Already won at the Dublin Racing Festival (Grade 2) and Punchestown Festival (Grade 3) too.

Gaillard du Mesnil - Marsh Novice Chase 16/1 (20/1 in places)
Grade 1 winner, and ran up to form when second to Bob O in the Ballymore.
Should be competitive at the mid-trip Graded races, I see Galopin Des Champs heading for the RSA/Festival/Brown.

Sir Gerhard - Supreme Novice Hurdle 13/2
Champion Bumper winner at the Fez, may have been over-the-top, when below that form at Punchestown.
I see Kilcruit as a Ballymore horse and Sir G as the Supreme one.

Classic Getaway - Albert Bartlett 25/1
Already won a 3M p2p and a 2M4F Bumper, it’s not easy to pick a Bartlett winner from bumper form, this far out, but 25/1 (365) is a standout price in the market, for a very decent hurdling recruit from CP/WPM.

Journey with me Ballymore
Kilcruit Albert Gypsy Island Mares Novice
..............and one other
 
Brandy Love for the Mares Novice at 25/1? Highly touted after hosing up in bumper before Christmas but didn't make it to Festival after getting beaten by Grangee at Leopardstown in Feb.

Elimay - 9/2Mares Chase (way short enough already but fair game in multiples)

Concertisa - 8/1 Mares hurdle

Monkfish - 6/1 Gold Cup

Looks good that.
Small doubt Brandy Love will need further I suppose…
 
I like it too, but I'd probably replace Brandy Love with Grangee.

I like that bet as well Knockando. The tricky thing with ante post Mullins runners is identifying most likely targets and that yankee appears to have 4 obvious targets. Might place it myself:encouragement:
 
I love a bit of bingo...

:highly_amused: me too .... worth a small stakes stab at the Supreme , Ballymore , Mares nov and Al Bartlett races , See how far off the mark we can be ! .:black_eyed:.

I like this too Knockando :encouragement:., and i've just placed it at corals ., so a wee bit shorter prices except Brandy Love. :apple: .
 
:disillusionment:
In August can we have a bet without single figure priced horses...? :pride:


July 2021 and we're backing 3 horses at single figures for March 2022.

Come on chaps :disgust::chuncky:



Solid selections of course knockando - no offense meant haha :nevreness:
