Win Today & Festival

In recent years Willie hasn't sent a winner to the Bartlett after winning this, this includes Next Destination who won it on soft/heavy.

Except Readin Tommy Wrong last year for the same owners as Jasmin
 
Ahh yes!

That ended well though :highly_amused:

FWIW I'm struggling to see a situation where JDV goes anywhere near the Bartlett :encouragement:

Or any other race if he loses today.

Going to be a nail biting few hours !

Haha ever the dramatic!

We've all been doing this long enough to not be too concerned as much about the lead up to the festival. Yes, it would be a relief, should he go and win, but I'm not sure him or anything else on show today is imperative of someone having a good or bad festival! I could be wrong of course? And this is probably dependent on how each individual approaches the festival.

The festival is the nail biting point for me, but even then, Ive usually got myself in to an OK position at least, with the exception of last season where it ended up going down to the wire! Thankfully Better Days Ahead done the business that day!

Gordon goes both ways too. Four winner in the last 20 years. Two have gone one way, two the other.

Isn’t there a stat that a Lawlors winner has never won the Bartlett?

Yeah, Gordon can go anywhere with them. Firefox didn't win it last season but ended up in the Supreme.

Obviously he's had Ginto & Death Duty go Bartlett and who could forget Envoi Allen winning the Lawlors then hosing up in the Ballymore!

….i laughed too. Saying that, I also remember putting up the Lads 20-1 offer on Sir Gino winning the Arkle :cheerful:

Before he ever ran ?
 
I said by lunchtime he’d be spoken in the same breath as Arkle only I meant the horse not the race :glee:

Yep, someone on here has a sense of humour and has requested that bet.

Long time to wait!!

You never know though !!

Hey you never know….you can still get bigger on the machine for KDB to win the Arkle than this fella to win both the triumph and the Arkle….go figure.

Salvator; Moscow Flyer & Sup 12-1; Sup/Ark 20-1 (40-1 PP/BFSB)
 
Think everyone that wants to be in probably already is but... 12s pretty fair to be honest. Say win at evens on Sunday and then 5/1 for the Supreme. He'd likely be much shorter than that. Wouldn't be surprised if he was 5s Supreme before Sunday!

Double antepost probably a bit of a negative mind...
