Ballymore Novice Hurdle 2019

Iv got a few brichdale bets for this that I can cash out, does anyone know when the next date is for decs for this race?....

Henderson has said a couple of times he's known to change his mind late regarding targets so I wouldn't cash out just yet.

You should cash it, because if he does run here he won't beat Champ (nothing will).

In seriousness, think NH has said Birchdale is going for the AB, but as Kev has mentioned, he is prone to change his mind!

I might just keep it then for a little but longer, I just wasnt sure when the next declarations are and they take them out of the betting......bet365 are very quick as of late.

Would anyone give Honeysuckle a chance in this. Unbeaten as well , lot of potential. gets an allowance etc.

Not as 12's NRNB - She's only rated 138 (plus 7 lbs for the Mares allowance I guess)... so 145? Need that clarifying... HRI website, does that include the Mares Allowance or not?

2018 - 155 Samcro
2017 - 147 Willoughby Court
2016 - 156 Yorkhill
2015 - 146 Windsor Park
2014 - 152 Faugheen
2013 - 152 The New One
2012 - 148 Simonsig
2011 - 142 First Lieutenant
2010 - 148 Peddlers Cross
2009 - 155 Mikael D'Haguenet



I'm probably not best to ask though, as I don't really fancy her against the weaker divison for the Mares Novice race... but she'll be up against:

152 - Champ
148 - Klassical Dream

Battleoverdoyewn is 144 and City Island 143 - so she'd be in and around them to be fair? (If the 7 lbs isn't included)

I think they’re more likely to switch Sinoria to this (if they choose to not run both in the Mares novice) - Honeysuckle’s been campaigned solely in Mares events - whilst Sinoria has always run against the lads. Given they are same owner/trainer it’s possible they may split them up.

[DonnyBoy]

Yes very true. I think id be interested more so if Honeysuckle came here on the day. Bit of value and all that. Good points though Cashew King.

Kev, the 138 is without mares allowance, so 145 factoring it in.

Okay cool, so she's certainly not to be ignored.

I think she's too short but I've had a lot of darts at this already.

I agree with the point earlier about her being less likely to leave Mares company than Sinoria...

Thoughts on Annamix bolting up over 2m4f on Thursday at Clonmel and not being 33/1 for this race. Leaving allaho and stepping up easy game for 3 miles and both Aramon and Klassical dream for the Supreme Annamix and Carefully selected for this....

If he is going anywhere I expect it will be spud - an extra few days off for a start

Could be right. Not giving up on the horse. Back from injury terrible run in defeat but closely related to Beaumech de houle and he looks top class in france. Will be sticking by him wherever he goes.
