I'd love Hollow Games to go for the Martin Pipe, him and Langer Dan are my two biggest winners in the race so far.

I Backed Hollow Games for the Martin Pipe after he lost at the DRF and saw he was given a mark of 138 in Ireland, and put him up on here, met with a little bit of resistance, mostly that he's pretty much shown his hand and probably not going to have much in hand on his rating, which were fair comments.

However, he has Grade 1 placed form, so he'd absolutely have a shout off his rating, IMO. How many others in the race would be at that level?

Do the right thing Gordo!

Yep absolutely...and if Ginto wins either race, then he'd be rated higher and that could put HG actually well in compared to the mark he's actually on that he's worth (just mentioned it in my diary).

I have backed the Ginto / Hollow Games combinations NRNB for the Ballymore/AB, AB/Pipe & Ballymore/Pipe - all from 6th Feb onwards so around the same time...and they're the same price today, so backed them again... really like them. 59.5/1 plus.

Copperless did suffer a stress fracture and it has been suggested in The County thread tonight that he may not run. I haven't seen anything confirmed though.

I saw Olly Murphy confirm Copperless has had a minor setback and would be out for the season on Twitter earlier in response to a query

Fantastikas 16/1 Ultima & The Glancing Queen PP Plate 14/1

Add Lomme Press for the full trials day race multiple….

The sort of race that has the potential to pop up on Twitter the middle of Wed & makes TGQ go off clear fav. I’ve dallied with the mare but I’m nibbling this with L’homme confirmed for RSA and Fantastikas having a squeak the more I look.

365 prices
Fantastikas 11/1 Ultima bog
l’homme 4/1 RSA
TGQ 10/1 (antepost price) plate

Not universally great prices but I’ve gone back to that race plenty and be miffed if I don’t play it to some degree, doubles & a tiny treble. If either of the first two don’t transpire at least she might go off double digits and be playable on the day(really like her profile)
