J.L.T Novices Chase 2019

Thanks Charlie. He doesn't rule out the JLT then and this is the only race I can see him winning. The RSA is potentially the best for a long time.

No worries. I’ve backed him 20/1 any race and 20/1 this but main concern is him avoiding Cheltenham altogether.

If that is written from the TV interview which I think it is he never nominated the RSA (hence not in quotes) that was suggested to him by the interviewer. To which he responded he stays all day and wants further, which could be interpreted as in the future/next season. Will try and get an update from indirect contact with one of the owners in the next week or so, remember he’s the one who has consistently said JLT. Agree with Charlie I think the bigger risk is missing the Festival than RSA, but anything’s possible

Thanks RC. Someone must have misquoted him on a podcast I was listening to.

Yeah I wondered where this podcast quote came from as nobody seems to be able to find the direct source, quite possible it came from this same article

FM (or anyone else) can you share the link for that podcast?

Well, today’s race really hasn’t franked Vinndication’s form. Far from it. Lostintranslation and LBAR look the best candidates here. LBAR has to run given the chance she’ll have. Be mad not to.

LBAR best form is over further?

She's certainly better than I thought she was though, I hope she does turn up!

It was the MNR Christmas review podcast.

Considering what Willie Mullins can do with Mares.
Camelia de Cotte interests me for this. Entered up in both grade ones at Dublin festival but also in the valuable mares novice chase on Sunday at Thurles. Willie's only entry in the Flogas.
With him being light in the novice chase ranks this year I can see this running here maybe.

But
No ones priced her up yet.
I'm going to ask B365,
Can anyone put her on the exchange with betfair
and ask Sky for a NRNB price,
or W Hill for any race ?
as I cannot do that.
Thanks in advance.

Got no interest in this, but managed to add on Betfair myself and got reasonable amount on at 50's.
Other bookies went too short, and she's been cut again now after her win today (against nothing)
Just need Willie to confirm target or Not.

Well done, Q. I thought she did that well. Clearly improving at a good clip. Hope she comes here. Townend seemed really pleased with her, didn't he?

Yeah, it went well.
Looks the obvious race to me, but would probably need to thin out a bit for her to have a great chance, but she could get them at it, and if she does run, she'll be a lot shorter.

Struck me as a JLT horse today. She'll jump off and try to run them ragged. Try to do what Vautour did in the Ryanair. The encouraging thing was the way she ran through the line today. Beat not much but did it in good style.

[Kevloaf]

Can't decide whether to chance her at 25/1.

Obviously has improved, but 11L behind Le Richebourg over 2m4f is plenty to need to be making up to really get in the mix?

Nice price Q.

That race turned into a sprint and she got squeezed at the second last and lost all chance, but that's being very kind to her and she most definitely has work to do with LR.
Was definitely a slow pace then sprint race though.

Think she's improved a tonne since then and … Le Richebourg is a very, very good horse - and even better over 2 miles!! He won't be here to worry her,
