Supreme/Ballymore/Albert Bartlett - Novice Hurdles 2021

[Lobos]

Only a 5 horse race, no Jon Snow, as predicted. No Dewcup or Shewearsitwell either.

N'Golo runs. Anyone have any idea what happened to him in his last race? Takes on the winner again and shorter in the market on Wednesday.

Townend said the horse was tired after the first circuit, which is odd, as you'd think WPM would know if they are fit and ready to go

Given that he is back out a month later, I guess whatever it really was isn't a problem now, as I'm sure connections wouldn't risk him running for the sake of it in a 10k novice hurdle.

Vet checked him as well + was post race normal. They took some samples as well for analysis. Heard nothing more...I''m sure after he topples Malone Road, we'll hear why!

A bumper race can easily be replicated on the gallops or at local courses for race fitness and experience so some horses from the bigger stables don’t need to rely on bumpers for racing experience as their gallops are as good if not better or they have the influence to use the race courses themselves when they need too

Malone Road now has a second Listowel entry.

As well as tomorrow's 2M race, he is entered over 2M4F in a Novice Hurdle on Saturday, at 2.50pm.

N'Golo has scared him off !

N'Golo has scared him off !

It will probably be a ground-dependent decision.

So weather-watch for Listowel.

[Lobos]

Wow that was even more impressive by Ocean Wind, will they even contemplate going over hurdles now, he was clearly thought of that way but that was some trial beating some solid yard sticks by a margin, anyone have an in with connections in regards to where his future lies....?

Sounds like they are sticking to Flat. As not qualified for Cesarewitch they are now aiming at All Weather Stayers final at Lingfield in April.

"The owner isn’t a massive jumping fan, and now he’s set his stall out on the Flat and looks like he’s going to be a high-quality stayer."

I requested prices at Sky and Hills for Malone Road to win today and win any race at Cheltenham - Sky quoted 20/1 but the market seems to have been taken down completely, but Hills have it at 18/1 (so 19.75/1 with boost) if that interests anyone (under future races, National Hunt yourodds)

Poor jump at the last cost MR

[KingSprinterSacre]

Poor from Malone Road. Some very sketchy jumps

[Big Bucks]

Poor from Malone road! Didn't look great and really poor jump at the last.

[Silverbirch]

Poor jump at the last cost MR

And the rest of the run to? Found very little at the end..

[BookieBasher]

Will be cashing out Malone road after that performance
