this week's entries

I'd wait to see if he's declared first before thinking any other races..

I've not backed him for any race like. Just in my tracker from last season's bumper form. ​​​​​Just saying that based on that entry though I'd be looking more towards the Bartlet than any of the other novice hurdles! Which is interestingly the only one he's not in the market in.

Appreciate what you're saying and of course there's every chance he won't be declared, as many aren't, but he's not being entered for a laugh. Must be a possibility he starts over two and a half, be it on Sunday or at a later date.

Or I'll take 40s in the AB :hororr:

As of last Thursday, they weren't looking to go down that route, I appreciate plans change, we'll see..

Fair enough, out of interest, last Thursday was... Stable tour? Entered over 2 mile? Or other?
 
Realisation runs in the Bumper at Bangor today. An 8l second to Between Waters in her point to point.

Thanking You ExarEssay . I saw this last night and popped her in a Multi today @ 12-1. Let's Hope Between Waters Back's up the Form :encouragement:.
 
Deeply Superficial entered in a maiden hurdle at Galway on Sunday and been given a hefty trim by Bet365 for the MNH. Still 16s with Sky, 888 and Bet Victor

Odd move ? Her PTP race hasn't worked out great.
 
The Mediator entered Wexford Sunday. Bumper 3rd behind Hunters Yarn after impressive Bumper debut win. Disappointed Gordon on his hurdling debut. Better than that and will be better on Softer ground.
 
Prengarde entered at Galway on Saturday.
 
Imagine entered over 2 mile on Monday... :cupcake:

He's one who's kind of passed me by. See he's with Gordon for Caldwell and won a decent looking bumper last year. Where do folk expect him to end up?

I wasn't overly keen on the bumper form, I'm pretty sure the form hasn't worked out that well either, however....

He was doing his best work at the finish, It's a sire Gordon has done well with in the past (Labaik), and Jamie Codd rates him, which are decent enough positives for me, at this stage. He's a horse I like the look of for sure.

Thanks COD and Darlojim. Is he bred for the shorter trip then?

His sires top 4 progeny (based on RPR's) all done well over the minimum trip during their novice hurdle days (includes Labaik). His Dam doesn't have much to go on but his Granddam has produced two extreme stayers in France. His dams sire produced Vautour (another Supreme winner) but also the likes of Sir Des Champs & Quevega.

Bit of a mixed bag on the breeding front, but nothing that would put me off :encouragement:
 
Joe Dadancer entered in a novice hurdle at Wetherby on Saturday. He was 11 lengths clear when falling at the last fence in his only P2P race. The third horse in the P2P race, Snake Roll has since joined Lucinda Russell and posted a debut RPR of 126 when winning his maiden hurdle at Kelso by an eased down 15l.

Bear Ghylls entered Sunday at Carlisle along with Jonjo's Iron Bridge.

Finally one of Nicholls' horses to follow; a 3 Y-O sourced from France called Blueking D'Oroux. Entered at Huntington on Sunday.

Joe Dadancer is in my tracker - hopefully Pauling has a decent horse to go to war with over the next few seasons.
