I can't let that pass without mentioning Airlie Beach's Royal Bond where the field included the subsequent Supreme and Albert Bartlett winners. None of the three started favourite.

The front two ran very tidy there today. Envoi is very economical over his hurdles for such a big horse. Tailor made for this race. We’ll hopefully see how well he stays at Naas in January but I’ve no doubts about that!
On another note Joseph O’Brien has to get Midnight Run right up in trip now. They were going too quick for him today and he’s not slick enough over his hurdles yet for a sharp trip. Rachel wise to sit up on him after he came to a halt after clattering the 2nd last
“That’s a relief but they are two very good horses. We like Abacadabras a lot and we think Envoi Allen is the real thing," said Elliott.
“The one thing that could beat him is a slow pace and we had to do all our own donkey work. His jumping was class apart from the last.
“He could step up in trip but I’ll have to talk to Davy and the owners and we’ll make out mind up. He’ll be entered in everything and could run next at Christmas or Naas (Grade 1 Lawlors Novice Hurdle).”

What was your verdict on the two big novice races at Fairyhouse on Sunday?
Noel Fehily, former jockey I was very impressed with Fakir D’Oudairies, who clearly loves jumping fences and looks a very good horse. You had to be impressed by Envoi Allen too. His bumper form was top drawer and he’s looked good in both starts over hurdles. I think he’ll be even better when he goes up in trip.
Micky Hammond, trainer Envoi Allen was impressive and looks a machine, he jumps well and it looks as though you can ride him whichever way you want. Fakir D’Oudairies jumped exceptionally well and has bags of scope for a four-year-old. He could be even better back at two miles. Over this trip it might have fallen Samcro’s way – his was a novicey mistake.
Patrick Mullins, jockey Samcro looks like he is back to his best. He was giving Fakir D’Oudairies 8lb and probably would have beaten him too. Envoi Allen looks like he could do anything he wants in life.
Amy Murphy, trainer Envoi Allen was a top bumper horse last year and showed he can also jump when making all in the Royal Bond for Cheveley Park Stud. He looks a natural for the Supreme. It would have been fascinating to see how Samcro would have fared in the Drinmore if he had stayed on his feet. Fakir D’Oudairies didn’t look to be stopping and may well have won anyway.
Kevin O'Malley, Tote spokesman Envoi Allen looks ideal for the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle and a range of top races in the future. He stands out a mile and backs up the imposing frame where it matters. Runner-up Abacadabras is no slouch, either. Drinmore winner Fakir D’Oudairies jumps like a bunny and looks an Arkle type, while Samcro’s jumping is a concern.

Patrick Mullins, jockey Honeysuckle was terrific. She really came of age in the Hatton’s Grace and I hope she and Rachael Blackmore can go right to the top together. As for Envoi Allen, if I could buy one horse right now in Ireland or Britain it would definitely be him.
