    Yep.

    good good performance, but as you say Barbados a proper staying flat horse.

      Really impressive. Lead them all the way round in a manner reminiscent of stable companion, Flooring Porter. Hoping for d?j? vu at Cheltenham for my double, where I've covered the Supreme at 66/1 and Ballymore at 50/1 (33/1 is still available on bet365 and worth taking imo). I've covered both races again in MMM + Letsbeclearaboutit (Albert Bartlett) doubles. Gavin Cromwell's hurdlers are extremely exciting.

      Edit: 33/1 is still available for the Supreme on PP.

        I think it was Quevega who pointed him out as a potential for the Bartlett, and based on that he could well be spot on, was a good run from the pair of them really

          Same ownership as Letsbeclearaboutit too - so they could end up with one here & one in Bartlett... 33s for each pretty much.

            Sorry, I was talking about Barbados, who My Mate Mozzie beat.

              Have a to agree was a very nice performance today and Barbados gives it a decent look being a proper flat horse. Hopefully he proves better over further as he looked outpaced round the side of the track so agree the AB could be on his radar.

              Taken the 33/1 for My Mate Mozzie Ballymore.

                Just be aware of Cromwell's comments after the race that they'll stick at 2m (at least for the time being).#

                  I had backed it after the race Ista and just catching up on all the threads.

                  Not to worry, I won’t rush to cover the supreme just yet will wait and see where he’s pitched next time

                    Elliot on Gerri Columbe: Gerri Colombe doesn’t do anything fancy at home, but he’s been very good on the track. He won both his bumpers very well last season and we are going to go novice hurdling with him. He’ll probably start off at two miles, but I could see him stepping up to two-and-a-half miles as the season progresses. We are quite excited about him.

                      One I like for the Ballymore and have backed at 33/1.

                        Gordon's quote does give the impression he's his best Novice Hurdler and he normally sends them down the Ballymore route.

                          To be honest I've been sat on the slip a while after my own views and then reinforced by mentions in the books. It's nice to have some at a decent price in the book who might actually give the shorties something to think about.

                            I've been waiting for a comment like this and some distance clarification before backing Gerri Colombe. If Robcour split up their horses, this surely increases the likelihood of Journey With Me to the Albert Bartlett too.

                              Like you’re thinking SS. 883/1 for the related double. Yes please.
