I am surprised that Colreevy is as big a price as she is for this (40/1). She was a high class Bumper mare (beating Black Tears easily giving 10pounds in a Grade 3). Her campaign has been interesting given she has a such a stout pedigree and will be suited by three miles. She won her maiden (relatively poor race) over 2 1/2 miles at Christmas but then dropped back, for some reason, to 2 1/4 miles in a Grade 3 - finishing second. A staying on 7th (beaten 8 lengths) in Relegate's Champion Bumper, she will relish the stamina requirements on the New Course and is definitely worth a look.

Has Pipe stated anywhere that Ramses comes here, with having such a nice profile for the National Id have him back over fences at the festival as a prep for what will of been his target all year and especially now they cant ruin his mark (assuming the hurdle runs have been protecting what they think is a winnable National mark)

Gault has this
8 of the 15 had 3 or 4 runs over hurdles. indo only two, second to Alloha in a 3m Clonmel G3. 'Harry and Berties had 14, Moulin 8 both second season novices, Martello Tower and At Fishers Cross, both 6 hurdle runs, Penhill had seven. The latter had been on the go since May, possibly originally seen as a summer hurdler.
Minella Indo buried the stat that all 36 horses that had contested less than three hurdle races had been beaten. Birchdale, Dickie Diver had also only two runs. Alloha had one hurdle run in France before coming to Ireland. Two qualifiers in 2018, Santini (fav) and Ballyward.

Couldn't see him winning ballymore even without Envoi Allen, but the bartlett maybe.
They did commit to the ballymore then leave him entered in here though. So you never know.
I backed him for this ew at 60-1 but have counted it as a loser for now, but got similar price to you for the ballymore for a few quid. Just in case a miracle happened.
For a yard like this to win a race at cheltenham would be nice.
