    You Oughta Know: Ballymore 25/1
    Croke Park: Albert Bartlett 16/1

    482/1 Paddy Power
    Nice idea

    No sign of entry for YOK ? Bit of worry

      YOK is on a planned break. Mullins confirmed in his stable tour he wouldn't be about until later in the season. I'd expect to see him early in the new year.

      • Lifted straight from The Giant Bolster's diary ....

        186/1

        Down Memory Lane (16/1) - Supreme
        Firefox (10/1) - Ballymore

        I expect them the other way around but the Christmas entries and ante post prices make this a really good cover bet IMO ... and I'd really fancy Firefox in the Ballymore regardless

          • I think most people are expecting Down Memory Lane to be Ballymore bound but the vibes seem strong and while he's 16s for the Supreme I think you'd be foolish not to have a small cover (if you're a Ballymore backer).
            It's still so early in the piece...

              Agree. Could go either way. He's one I'm very happy to be on TWAR. The race next week will tell all.

                Yep
                He was one I did very early for the Ballymore but have since covered the Supreme.
                Done the same with Firefox and also covered Kevs doubles.
                Think they are both big players in their chosen race

                • ….this has probably been mentioned but a French double;

                  Ile est Francais (Turn) & Theleme (Stay) 151-1 Lads boost
                  Ile est Francais (BANC) &’Theleme (Stay) 92-1

                  Whichever tickles your fancy.

                    July flower in the mares novice too for a big treble

                    • I'd be wary of Ile est Francais running at the festival even if he were to win easily at Kempton. His ultimate target this season is the French GC and they may prefer an 'easier' route to that after his Xmas run. Did not think connections have mentioned going to the Festival have they ??

                      • Ideal result for me in the Future Champion's would be Daddy Long Legs beating a staying on Down Memory lane. So with that in mind have gone with…..

                        DLL (Supreme)
                        DML (Ballymore)

                        Boosted to 326/1 with Hills. Was going to use the MGM double boost to take it too 500/1, but it exceeded the 1k winnings limit!

                          Highlighted at 440s in the diary

                          Will be intriguing to hear post race interviews as regards to whether theyll dip their toe in again over here prior to the Grand Steepe

                          • The Gaelic Warrior Irish Arkle chat seemed quite popular so I'm thinking there's a Cheltenham related double potential from it.

                            Gaelic is top priced 12s for the Arkle. And opens up a big gap in the Turners market... But for what. Facile Vega somewhat related.

                            Beating Marine National in the Irish Arkle and pushing him up in trip I considered but there's no value in.


                            Indiana Dream is my other thought but think I was on my own liking him for the Turners.

                            But any Turners selection you fancy makes a bit of sense of you're taking out the 5/4 fav.

                              Agree - did the double with Fact to File myself after (I think?) Willie name checked the Turners for him yesterday

                              • 90/1 for Captain Teague today and Minella Missile for the Albert Bartlett might interest some
                                Although Willmount probably wins
