JLT Novices 2018

Bit disappointed with Al Boum Photo. I think he should been further in front of the likes of Dounikos.

I was worried about the trip for Cheltenham but the ground should have compensated today. His jumping had looked good before but today it looked very hard work. Same jock as last time so hard to lay the blame in that direction.

Why did he drift to as big as 12/1 from early 4/1?

I thought he ran a very good race personally in what as an extremely Good race. Dounikos is a nice horse look through his form. There will be plenty of graded winners in there

He would have beaten Dounikos comfortably last time so logic would suggest he hasn't even reproduced that level of form.

Or Dounikas improved?

I have agreed with you about Monalee and taken the 14/1. Quicker ground shouldn't be an issue and he will not be meeting Presenting Percy.

Looks like that money is only going one way as post race comments suggest RSA. The 14/1 carrot did look too big. Still he did lead over the longer trip at both Cheltenham and Punchestown and get beat so perhaps he isn't quite the stayer they think he is?

[Liammet]

Henry de bromhead commented that they got Noel fehily to ride monalee today because they couldn't get Davy Russell to commit to riding the horse at Cheltenham
Suggests monalee is going RSA route as Russell will be on presenting Percy
Looking at the JLT Russell has no obvious mount safely presuming PM goes Arkle

which horse are you talking about that's 14/1? Or looks like Monalee so I'm confused haha

I was replying to my own post about Monalee. I wish it was a different horse that might turn up. These trainers have got no idea.

[SeanRock]

Ah, Now I follow.

I agree, i took 12s NRNB JLT a few weeks back. Almost certainly posted about it

[Folski]

I took 10s NRNB before the weekend, it's the perfect race for him. Not only that but looks like it'll cut up a bit.

Bet365 latest odds NRNB

4s Willoughby Court - would imagine he runs and goes off shorter
5s Invitation Only - Ruby confirmed RSA
6s Footpad - Surely goes Arkle
6s Monalee - HdB suggesting RSA
7s Yanworth - Has other options, probably goes RSA or stayers over this
8s Petit Mouchair - Surely goes Arkle
8s Al Bum Photo - Probably the WM horse for this.
10s Finian's Oscar - Finished distressed last time out horse been messed around all season.
10s Benetar - Surely not good enough

[Folski]

Thought I read something this morning?

[Scooby91]

I'd have .
Yanworth RSA
Invitation only
Dounikos
Alboum photo
Monalee

Winning the rsa AND jlt between them. No real preference who goes where other than yanworth.

[darlojim]
