Supreme Novices Hurdle 2020

Presumably Scooby was referring to Ruby's PP blog before KD's debut at Leopardstown on the 26th Dec "Klassical Dream will win at Leopardstown in my view".

KD was 25/1 with Hills (27/1 boosted) mid Jan, then Quick Grabim got injured and was then cut by most firms. There was talk of the Ballymore in the lead up to the Festival but when the rain came it helped KD's chances and hindered Aramon's, so they declared for the Supreme. It worked out very nicely!

That's the one. He mentioned him a couple of times in the same piece.
Pretty sure he said klassical dream will win the novice hurdle, allaho should win the bumper.

Was very blunt on his chances. In a race which I was aware of not being a soft touch at all
 
He also said in his blog last week that draconien was happy jumping away the same day that the ATR stable tour came out saying he was out for the season

Yeah that was cringe worthy and looks very bad. Hope he does another Q&A session so that can be put to him for clarification.
 
5 pages of gold posted here over the last 2 days trhat I've just caught up on...

Gold might be a bit kind...

Malone Road didn't get an entry and people aren't fans of Ruby Walsh giving out tips.

Slow news days :p




When was the last high profile bumper horse we had actually getting the job done in the Supreme?

None of the last 7 Supreme winners were high profile bumper horses (Klassical Dream, Summerville Boy, Labaik, Altior, Douvan, Vautour) It's back to Champagne Fever in 2013 isn't it... and from memory that was a 'shock'



Loads of water to go under the bridge, the forum have their blinkers on with Malone Road.... everyone is on, let's look for the actual winner now should we? :devilish:

Looks like teachers come back into class :highly_amused:

Haha, a real life laugh out loud at that, well done. 1 gold star for you
 
No sign of Malone road, Jon snow or fly smart in the royal bond ......
 
Thom Malone just confirmed to me as he’s there today. Elliot said hacking away grand and will be out over Xmas.

Must’ve been some sort of delay as down royal was the previous plan

Trying to stay positive regarding MR, he won't have time to get a maiden hurdle in before this, so can see why GE has given it a swerve. You wouldn't want to be running in that first time up.

Great news Jack, cheers

Given the fact that it's only a few weeks away and they've not made their debut, even if they had an entry it would be unlikely they'd run.

I did tweet him with the idea to take his response with a pinch of salt. The fact it’s just prolonged it has made me feel worse for tweeting the question 😂
