Ballymore Novice Hurdle 2020

[Kevloaf]

Interestingly, Gordon said he will walk the course on Sunday and make his decision then. The proper rain doesn't come till Monday.

Yes Charlie, the only thing walking the course at 8.30am Sunday will do is give Gordon a feel for how good/bad the ground is, before the main rain comes on Monday.
That's why I think it's more likely that he could choose the Ballymore, but without knowing (only estimating) if that is going to be run on the ground he hope's to get.

Did he say he's coming over a day early to walk the course this morning to get a better idea too?

No; he said he usually arrives Sunday evening but he’s coming Saturday evening so he can walk the course Sunday morning

....this is the target for The Big Getaway according to Mullins in his RP article today.

Correct.

I'm meeting him at the airport with some Factor 50 and a pair of Havaianas.

Just messaged Kev saying the same. Hardly any supreme money too.

You've got to laugh.

Must be a great trainer to work for old GE.

Very unlike me to get massive value but I took plenty 3.5-3.6

With Soft, Good to Soft in places now looking the most likely, surely Gordon will send EA here

exchanges very much tell the story now, not that it was in any real doubt with the predicted weather forecast anyway

[Alderbrook]

Is it really cut an dry that EA goes here if Elliott turns up to walk the course in the morning after 5mm tonight and it’s soft with rain in the forecast for Monday?
