[Scooby91]

The bumper entry at Punchestown for Sunday is interesting.
The John Magnier owned horse for Mullins that I can't pronounce or type looks fancy. Kchou du pecos AA
Anyone know owt about this ?.
Hollowgraphic won this race last year.

He was bought years ago as a store. Only the lads at home know if he's any good.

I see Paddy Power has a price up for Shadow Rider @40's but no price up for both Asterion F. and El Barra what do you make of this ?

They will price up horses upon request so it probably just means no one has requested the other two.

Think we can assume what next year's early Ballymore favourite will be then.

Any chance they take him to Cheltenham after the injury to Malone Road? They normally keep the best one at home..

Have a feeling that MR might still make it to the festival tbh. He's not been written off judging by the exchange market, and still being matched between 8.2 & 9.

Will be touch & go for him, but don't think EA will turn up either way myself.

Backed Midnight Run in the listed bumper tomorrow at Navan and for this at 33’s.

That's a bold shout, a giggingstown horse for the champion bumper.
Any reason particularly?
The 2nd poker dainay was beaten 60L on his next start by one of Giggis lesser horses.

I'm still intrigued that their seems to be continued money for Malone Road on the exchanges. Upon the news of his injury he was out to 9.8 on the exchanges but has quietly kept coming back in and now only 8.

Have noticed the same CoD, I do wonder quite how he managed to get this knee injury, during or just after his last race? Is it too conspiratorial to ask if the injury has been how shall we say it, a little exaggerated?

From memory I think it was always put forward as a 'minor' injury, but just how 'minor' was it. I still have a feeling we could see MR at the festival, time will tell now though.
