Apparently BTB might have gone to Willie and sold for more than ?400k.

Croke Parks win at the weekend was pretty good - had to show some ability to win from an unpromising position coming to the last.

Act of Authority for ?200k could be a good bit of business for whoever has purchased him.

These prices are ludicrous considering the prize money in jumps racing and no potential stallion fees

Can't be sustainable

Might get pelters on here for this, but I think BMG is one of the most overrated horses in training atm

Definitely agree with you on that one, no excuses for today's performance, in my opinion.

Thought it was odd that BMG didn’t use its main attribute, namely his jumping. Seemed happy to let Ahoy have his way up front. Having said all of that, BMG does look soft in a battle.

I don't think that was the real BMG today and have happily taken the 7s for the King George.

On what we've seen up to yesterday of B.M.G , i'd put a line through yesterdays run personally.
But . Definitely expect better from him next time .
