Given the support for Irish Point for tomorrow

Royal Bond treble PP
3756-1
MN - Irish Point - Champ Kiely

extremely unlikely but if Irish wins tomorrow and Kiely comes second :eek:
Obviously could add in Ashroe diamond for the mares novice :highly_amused:
And Hercule de seuil for the county :highly_amused::highly_amused:
Then retire or die of a heart attack.

I actually really like that with Ashroe Diamond in for Champ Kiely ... as that's too specific....

713/1 with 365?

445-1 with Marine at 11-4 w/o Vega.

11/4 is decent as others go 2-1.

Yeah, decided to take that instead and came back to post... and you've beaten me to it
 
The Lawlors looks ripe for a few related doubles as I am convinced the favourite in one won't go (Grangeclare West) and the favourite in the other is over rated (Hermes Allen). The market will compress in one (AB) and have big shorteners in the other (Ballymore). The Albert Bartlett market prices are interesting. If you take GW out the picture the top 3 are HDVL @ 5/1, Favori De Champdou @ 12/1 and Sandor Clegane @ 12/1. A horse that runs tomorrow that I am very interested in is Affordale Fury. Not much looks to separate HDVL and Favori De Champdou on form, they both beat Letsbeclearaboutit and both are unbeaten. HDVL beat Monbeg Park and 8L - Affordale Fury beat Monbeg Park 3L (could have easily doubled that winning margin if not for making silly mistakes and encountering issues in running).​ Sandor Clegane is priced up at 12/1 having beaten Sam's Choice 16L last time out. Sam's Choice won over the Xmas period earning himself a rating of 123 - Affordale Fury beat Sam's Choice 18L. Whilst I don't necessarily think AF will win tomorrow, nor be ridden to have an overly hard race, a bold show would advertise his Albert Bartlett credentials and whilst not many 5 year olds win the AB, the last to achieve this was Very Wood for Noel Meade in 2014. Affordale Fury's campaign is a carbon copy of Very's Woods campaign, taking in Galway, Navan and Naas before being aimed at the AB. Its clearly the target, tomorrow is deep water and for that reason I am going with one of the top two to win and go Bally, with all roads leading to the AB for Affordale Fury:

Affordale Fury (AB) - 25/1
Irish Point (Bally) - 16/1
441/1

Affordale Fury (AB) - 25/1
Grangeclare West (Bally)​ - 6/1
181/1

Dawn Rising not on your radar, who won the race that Affordale fell in?

not for me to answer but my reading of that race was that Affordale was the likely winner had he not fallen. I would want to see an improved jumping performance from him tomorrow

I can certainly see the angle Charlie is going for, as in Noel Meade going down the Very Wood route, and AF was putting American Mike to bed before he fell. However, the more I watch that race back, the more I think Dawn Rising is finishing better and would have beat both anyway.

For what it's worth, I like both Affordale Fury and Dawn Rising and will probably back both for the AB. If I had to choose one, I think I'd lean towards Dawn Rising and I'd take a Mark Walsh or JJ Slevin ridden horse over a Bryan Cooper one too.

On mine. That pace was suicidal. I think AF would’ve been caught by Dawn Rising anyway. Speculation, I know.

I really like AF though and given a more sensible ride think he’s a great candidate for this … but think prices about him might be better after the race. If he’s truly co
competitive tomorrow, surely the Ballymore becomes and option?
 
Yep
guesswork
but I’d certainly be on the dawn rising side of the hypothetical argument

Does anyone agree that if TMSG loses today she will revert to hurdles for the season?

Considering Instit today / TMSG (MH) is 57.5/1 as a double

Very much a possibility . Henry's horses are just not performing as they should though so I reckon there is a bigger issue.

Not sure about that. I love TMSG and think she'll win today, but if she doesn't, you'd be betting on her going back into a division they chose to leave behind, into a division that looks a lot more competitive than the previous year.

As a previous festival winner, thrown in, she wouldn't be a 57/1 shot though would she?



It's 100% a very clever related double idea, which is what the thread is for.

One outcome affecting another for a better return.




........and while the race is being run, with jumping like this, TMSG ain't continuing the chase career.... don't think she'll be winning anything :hopelessness:

Someone has probably already noted this one, and at bigger, but a lot of talk about So Scottish for the plate, so I'm adding the related form double of Boothill (Grand Annual) & So Scottish (Plate) in a 77/1 NRNB double.
