I certainly hope so , got Thyme hill , Monkfish , fury road .
and Latest exhibition on my Radar for the R.s.a and stayers.

What are peoples thoughts on Bob Olinger. Looked a nice prospect when winning a bumper at Gowran over 2 mile 2. Obviously hes a novice hurdler and has many options from Supreme up to the Bartlett. Only 16s to win any race which seems a big short when hes 33s for the Ballymore and the Bartlett.
The one thing that has stopped me is the owner - Robcour. I cannot recall them having many runners at the Festival over the last few years. Their best horse this year was Chris's Dream and that was gonna be targeted at Punchestown I believe. Hes one Im keeping an eye on though....

In Ireland their winners have risen in recent seasons, from 1-0-7-11-11, and HdB taking over from Jessie Harrington as the main stable.
I like Bob Olinger a lot as a 33/1 longshot for the Ballymore.
His track debut, after a 15 length winning romp home on his P2P debut in November (aged 4) was in a Gowran maiden bumper in March, with a recent list of runners/winners with future listed and graded wins following on including
Minella Melody 1st last season for HdB
Monalee 2nd for HdB
Yorkhill 1st for WPM
He won the race, as expected, over 2M2F in facile style by 10 lengths.
HdB post-race quote suggested a run in England was on his mind too:-
‘He's entitled to go for a winners bumper. I don't know where or when, today was Plan A. You have Aintree and Punchestown and we'll discuss it with the owners and see what they want to do‘"Journeys to Glory, breathing in his head".

BOB OLlinger I like for the ballymore. The owner of GOSHEN is from my town and he feels like he’s won the lottery !

I like that bet, I think we can maybe rule out the Supreme for him considering hes already gone 2 mile 2 in his bumper and 3 mile in his point to point.
