That's been a weird trend but can't see any reason for it. I'd just put it down to variance.

Envoi Allen and Samcro all won at the festival again, and Ballyburn should have!🤮

They win again, but the following season seems to be hard for them. Probably varying reasons but knowing what the right trip is seems to big the big issue, that and not taking to fences, because they used to be able to stay at the trip and go for the JLT, but that's now a handicap! If they don't take to fences then there is no mid trip hurdles G1 the following season to go at at the festival.

I still wouldn't be a fan of using it as a trend.
