'Talk the talk - trainer wants to run in supreme owners prefer Turners'

That's an interesting one. Joseph prefers the Supreme, whereas Anthony Bromley, the Turners. If that's the case it will be interesting where he goes and how much sway Bromley has. Always got the impression with that outfit, unlike JP, that they let trainers decide.

Might be as simple as travel/attendance plans for the 2 owners.

Bromley isn't the owner...

If their goal is to sell him, as they've been talking about the possibility of doing that a fair bit, they may just want to run in what they feel is the easier race to win and drive up his price tag.
 
Thanks Billy
Question though, why would Paul T want Mighty Park to run in Supreme ?
Have I missed something ? (Probably have knowing me). Ta
Maybe he knows he won't win the supreme on any of his possible rides and doesn't want a good one stopping him from winning the turners, Massive guess.

Edit, yep, as above, probably talking about PN, not PT
 
So actual preview evenings wise then
Tonight is the paddy power one, not seen anything else quotes wise from the last few days- seems quiet! Anything else going on tonight or tomorrow ?

Every year on the Paddy preview I wonder why they park Rory Delargy, one of the most knowledgeable racing men around, for Toby Mullins to put up Wendigo for the Ultima
 
Some of the shite they talk on these previews, even respected legends like Ruby.
If I was sat there I'd stop him dead in his tracks with some of the shit he talks.
He'd have no retort.

It's frustrating to watch alright 😂
Never seems to be anyone there who actually calls out the nonsense, I guess they wouldn't be invited back so they keep their opinions to themselves.
 
Yep, it’s been bang average preview. Not sure about this Mullins being a laugh. At him maybe. Only watched hoping for a few boosts, looks like nout.

I always find it far more entertaining when people challenge each other on stuff.
Jennings is not too bad at snapping back, and sharper than most on the knowledge side.
 
Picking up on Ruby's crabbing of Fact to File's Durkan run.
He's not giving the horse credit for having to make up so much ground in the first place.
IMO that is harder to do than getting a soft lead.
So always give a horse credit for getting into it. And he was the only one that did,

Tony Mullins: Ruby, would [insert strange opinion here] go here?

Tony Mullins not getting the right race for the Horse his Wife trains, and son rides, was a particular highlight. (Started putting up Blaze The Way for the Plate then realised he meant the Ultima!)
