If I had to rate the main novices in terms of which will produce quality Grade 1 winners this season
1) Ballymore
2) Supreme
- I think the for line with Darver Star helps confirm these two races were strong
- Envoi Allen has a high probability of being a star and I think the two behind him will do well
- Aba is solid and I expect him to maintain mid to high 160's mark. Shishkin, yet to jump a fence but could be very good. I also think Chantry House will prove to be a solid chaser over further
3) RSA
- Tricky one, how good are Allaho and Minella given how champ ran them down. Hmmmm
4) Marsh
- mainly because of age, Faugheen will win one more race. Melon and Samcro will feature at fez
5) Arkle
- I just dont fancy PTKO or Fakir in open company. Everyone has their view, based on my experience and knowledge - I have it down as the weakest out of the novice
This is my viewpoint now. However, one of the most importance lessons I learnt last season is to remain open, things change, and don't be afraid to re-baseline once these novices run in open company and prove me wrong
