Supreme Novice Hurdle 2019

On form there is very little between Aramon and Klassical Dream. If you have one on a short-list it makes no sense to omit the other.
 
I have Aramon 65/1, Klassical Dream and Angels Breath 33/1, Mister Fisher 25/1. Al Dancer would kill my book.

My concern with Aramon is he hung left but he has backed up his good clock performance at Christmas. I would have preferred him to go straight there tbh. I can see the price angle with Itchy Feet but he hung left badly on his last run that put me off.
 
I’m getting twitchy with my Angel Breath bets for this race as they’re Ante Post, I don’t whether to sit tight or cash out

Al Dancer is not a good one for me either and tbh I'm not too bothered about him still either.

With regards to Angel's Breath, if Nicky is to be believed I don't see why you send the quickest horse over hurdles for the Ballymore. He's quick over hurdles and stays a trip, he'll hose up in the Supreme. Has been mentioned in the same breath as Altior already, Nicky isn't stupid.

It's not Nickys choice. I guarentee atleast 1 of klassical dream/ angels breath go for the ballymore. If not both.
 
Al dancer was good but what did he beat dirt wait and see AB when he comes out again

Watched it back again never seen a bigger overaction in my life this horse won’t win the surpreme
Look at the horses in behind come on

What is the logic in thinking KD goes Ballymore?

I can see the logic of Angels Breath going for the Ballymore but struggling to see why the Deloitte winner will be stepped up in trip.

He outstayed aramon last time. its easy just to look at his form over here. If you stay round auteuil , The ballymore would be no bother.

Options are open

It's a handicap they're weighted accordingly. Ask Paul how getaway trump compares to grand sancy. Lisp was in there. He's picked up and blown them away. As he did at chelt the time before.

Especially when Aramon looks made for the Ballymore.

Not sure what makes you think aramon is made for the ballymore at all. He came to win his race, he was just out stayed by klassical dream.

Not how I saw it, I thought Ruby had a little more that he didn't think he would need but had to ask KD for it in the end to get up. I don't see how KD goes for it.

Think he wins it with a turn of foot that the other horses in the Ballymore may not have. That's what Samco did the year before, Yorkhill did the same. Mullins also said a step up in trip would suit before GQ got injured.

I don't believe I said that.
I think the percentage call, is atleast 1 of them 2 will.

Options are open. And dosent bother me either way personally.
 
I’ll be devastated if KD goes to the Ballymore as I’ve a 60/1 double carrying on from the DRF on him if he wins the Supreme

No you said you can guarantee one of KD/AB goes to Ballymore if not both. I had been away a few days so thought I missed something as didn't think there was much chance of KD going BM. Personally think AB has no chance at Cheltenham doesn't have the exp.

He's won a ptp. A graded hurdle. And he runs again within the week.

He has been in training 18 months.
He will not lack for experiance at all.
