Sounds like he'll stick to 2 though based on what they have said if he is ok at Xmas

Yep, bit of a game changer for me. Covered for both races but will top up in Supreme now.

Christmas target for exciting novice hurdler Envoi Allen will not be decided until nearer the time.
The unbeaten five-year-old, who won the Cheltenham Bumper in March and is already a Grade One winner over hurdles, is currently one of the most talked about horses in racing.
Owned by Cheveley Park Stud and trained by Gordon Elliott, he has quotes as short as 8-1 for the Champion Hurdle, such was the impression he created in winning the Royal Bond, and does have the option of running in the Matheson Hurdle against his elders at Leopardstown.
He is also engaged in the Paddy Power Future Champions Novice Hurdle or could even wait for the Lawlor’s of Naas Hurdle, a Grade One over two and a half miles on January 5 – if connections decide to step up in trip.
“He’s got a couple of options and we’ll all have a discussion and make a call nearer the time,” said Cheveley Park’s Chris Richardson.
“He’s in the two-mile Grade One and the novice, obviously, so we’ll look at the opposition and see how things are.
“He came out of Fairyhouse well, he did have a little nick on a front pastern which required a couple of staples, but I don’t think it’s of any significance. We’ll just see how he is before Christmas.”
There has been plenty of talk over which trip Envoi Allen will eventually be seen at his best, but Richardson sees no reason to move up just yet while his winning streak continues to extend.
“We keep saying he wants stepping up in trip, but until he’s beaten at two miles there’s probably no need to. It looked like Gordon’s other horse (Abacadabras) was going to come with more speed, but his stamina told and he stayed on well,” said Richardson.
“He keeps finding when he’s asked the question. We’ll be looking at his options, but we’re happy at two miles for now.”
He added: “The Thompsons (owners) are loving it, Mr Thompson decided he wanted to have some Cheltenham horses and luckily they are nice horses. To get one like Envoi Allen is a dream come true.”
As well as Envoi Allen, the famous red, white and blue silks were carried to victory at Cheltenham in March by Henry de Bromhead’s A Plus Tard, and he will also be in action at Leopardstown over Christmas.
“A Plus Tard will go for the Grade One over two miles at Leopardstown on December 27,” said Richardson.

Cheveley Parks racing manager says no need to step EA up from 2 miles until he's beaten at that trip. The biggest hint yet imo that the Supreme will be his ultimate target. Also confirmed 2 staples in cut from last race.

Makes sense, if he racks up 2M Grade 1’s at Christmas and at DRF that will be wins in five Grade 1’s in Bumper and Novice Hurdles over 2M. Cheveley Park have no other crack Novices to juggle, so connections don’t need to change trip unless he loses in his races from now to Cheltenham.

And wheres he going at christmas?
Abacadbras has been backed for the top novices hurdle. The entries will be out very shortly for the 2m4 lawlors of Naas.

If you believe he'll go for the supreme why take 9/2 when you can get 5/2 just for him to run in it.

Maybe because he'll win the Supreme. Rather top up at 9/2. Will stick him in some multiples now as well.

Ha, ha, ha !

[Can't Catch Me]

Just keeping their options open and who can blame them. Plenty of water to go under the bridge with all of the opposition.

Nice position to be in knowing the horse would probably win either the Supreme or the Ballymore as easily.

[Scooby91]

It's the people who's backed him for both or all 3 (CH) that I feel sorry for. Hes clearly going to run in the ballymore.
Not the slightest doubt.

Until he’s beaten at two miles there’s PROBABLY no need to step him up in trip. One word but could be a costly one unless you have cash out!

You'll have cashout, but I'd love to know the percentage when backed.
Lobos might be able to enlighten.

As soon as it goes NRNB, cashout will be removed on all antepost bets prior, Which will shock a few people
