  • I'd suggest Allaho is not slow.

    He was 4th in what looks like being a fairly hot bumper at Leopardstown, where the horse in 3rd (Sempo) has bolted up by 15 lengths next time out, the 2nd (Two Shoe Tom) finished 6 1/4 off a Grade 2 bumper next time out, and the 5th (Fury Road) was very well thought of at home and won his PTP very comfortably.

    • As someone who would prefer to see Klassical Dream in the Supreme if Alloha does not run here what other options does Wille have? Assume Aramon is definitely Supreme bound, anyone think CS still makes the Festival?

      • I think it will be either allaho or KD in this race.
        I get what ruby says that you normally need a speedier horse to win this however looking back on last year samcro and black op the first 2 home....not terribly quick either of them.
        Looking at the race this year, which one’s would be the speedier types?
        I think champ pulls too hard, BOD is gona be a 3 mile chaser next year.....brewingupastorm and beakstown?
        I personally don’t think it looks a particularly strong renewal so I’d be happy for allaho to take this up and think he’d have a decent chance.
        For what it’s worth my main bet is BOD, just simply because I think he has the most potential and will hopefully show it in 3 weeks time.

          • Ruby doesn't decide where they run Willie does. I did think Willie exaggerated how keen he was after the race I thought he relaxed well.

              Ruby is a huge part of the process - going right back to when he left Nicholls to work full time for WPM. Someone as shrewd as Ruby doesn't leave a job like that without certain assurances I promise you. All this about Willie giving out to Ruby is complete shite. Their working relationship is set in stone and on the whole highly amicable. Paul does as he's told!

              • Of course they have endless debates but Willie makes the final decision.

                  That's the only bit of Ruby's spiel that you need to bother with.

                    That was when talking about KD/Aramon. https://www.racingtv.com/videos/watch/ondemand/27397

                    • I've backed Klassical Dream here in the anticipation Mullins is very much going to leave the door open in the stable tour to splitting Aramon and KD up

                      • No final decisions will be made until they've done their last serious bit of work at the earliest. Most will be made about 9.45 on declaration day.

                          Archie, is Willie not concerned about those of us that need to cash out for one of the races?

                          • Aramon would be hard to beat in the Ballymore too. Settle off a slower pace and quicken.
