    The third horse, State of Honour (beaten 10l) had previously ran Minella Crooner to under 4l so the Mullins horse could turn out to be above average.
    Where he goes from here of course is a guess up...
    Showed a good turn of foot first time up, once she got balanced she took off.
    Few hold up's but good to see her out now - goes for a winners bumper next and should land one easily and go from there.

      Thanks for correcting my sex error.
      Any idea on whether they’ll be sending her over timber this season ?

        No talk of it yet but I would think so once she wins her winners bumper.
        Took them slightly by surprise how well she won!

        • It isn't on oddschecker but Frontal Assault is 25's with WH for the NHC. Shorter elsewhere.

            ….yep, it’s been highlighted & on the Yankee thread. Surprised it’s lasted so long, hopefully there when the Yankee goes on in a few weeks.

            • Is frontal Assault good enough?

              Especially hard to see him holding up the form with GDM off levels if that one runs

              We've had 2 classy winners in a row, with the trip being reduced that may become a trend

              I'm not sure that's frontal assault

                I tend to agree, if he’s Gordon’s main dart in the race I think it would have to be a below par renewal to see him winning.

                  I'm interested in Hollow Games for the n.h.chs. , .
                  Seeing how Gordon Elliott tried to get The Bosses Oscar chasing , last season .
                  The Bective Stud owned Hollow games , could be his choice this time round .
                  Already has some Reasonable form , although soundly beaten by The Nice guy last time .
                  He was third in the Martin Pipe behind Banbridge too . so has some course form.

                    Yeah he’s my idea of Gordon’s main hope for this, although he’ll probably run a couple. Frontal assault seems more of a handicapper to me

                    • Has anyone heard whether Zanahiyr came back alright following his fall at Aintree at end of season? I just watched it back and it looked quite nasty although the horse got up afterwards.

                      • No nothing said I don't think, so presumably everything is okay TH.

                        • A plus tard 10s on bex….the same happened yesterday someone put up ?100 to lay at 10s, same again today. Wonder if there’s an injury that hasn’t hit the public domain yet and a stable lad is quietly taking advantage?

                            A bit mad to be tossing money away at 10.0 unless the BFX punter knows something.

                            10.0 is the biggest price matched on APT by some way.

                            Tying ?2K up for 9 months, to win ?200 needs to a "without risk" punt?

                              I monitor the exchanges quite regularly as it’s 1 of the few accounts I have left and noticed this yesterday. The same thing happened again today as if someone is trying to lay without raising too much suspicion. May be nothing in it but thought I’d highlight it in case anyone has positions or considering a bet.
