Did I hear wrong or did Balko come back lame from his run at Cheltenham??

Yes he did. I don't know what the prognosis is as nothing more was said.

[Quevega]

Speaking on Saturday, Balko Des Flos’ trainer Henry De Bromhead said; “After the race Balko was found to be lame on his right hind leg. The vets gave him the full check over immediately after the race and it was found that he had a stone bruise which explains his performance. He’s still sore on it today but thankfully it seems to be nothing serious.”

Thanks guys. Perfect........well, you know what I mean. The 20/1 has to be a very good EW play. I'll need to find a couple more to do an AP Festival Trixie I think.

Bang goes that bet..........backed into 12/1 from 20's since I posted this.......

I very much doubt that it was my stake but Balko has now gone back into 12/1 with 365.

I think the 20s was an error, they were standout for about 3 days, next best in the market was 16s but the majority were 12/1 or thereabouts.
My guess is they’ve taken enough money for it to trigger on their risk system and have almost halved his price…

It must have been our EW Trixies that moved the market Lobos as I did the same

put him with State Man (Supreme) 33/1 & Facile Vega (Bumper) 20/1 for my EW Trix.

What about yours?

Didnt place it. Had two picked, Balko and Echoes In Rain but was searching a third. Too late now. You snooze, you....

How’s the book looking at the moment? You normally go into hibernation around this time of year don’t you?

Yep, there now bar the odd one or two. Well pleased with it. Doubt I'll get anywhere near this year's 14 winners but I'll try ! Building a nice cash bank for the week for the handicaps and any cover bets. How about you?

It’s been a funny year this year with the dry ground etc. haven’t seen many festival winners yet (hopefully for my books sake!)

Mine is progressing nicely thanks, I just need to get more of the shorties on side. Haven’t got Honesuckle or Bob covered in a single yet which is annoying!! Hoping to land some nice roll ups over Xmas
