  • You just know it’s going to be that noncommittal “I’ve been thinking of stepping him up, but we’ll see” thing.

    • "He has loads of speed but also stays well" or something

      He said this about appreciate it

      He's a horse that I think might be in the staying novice hurdle division. I don't minding starting off over two miles but looking at him gallop I don't mind going out to two and a half and he's possibly a Ballymore type. We'll let him tell us as the season progresses.

      Who ended up winning the Supreme by half the track

      Plans change so what he says tomorrow will be helpful but not cast iron

      • Willie is trying Polo Lounge over hurdles again today. One to keep an eye on for any Shanbally Kid fanboys

          That’s a key message, reaction today will be instantaneous but that doesn’t mean the value is gone gone. Targets change, horses change, willies thinking changes.

          See a big move today for a horse direction - think what could be the total opposite that could happen? As the AI example you gave.
          he has a massive outfit this year, not shy off 50 recruits alone from France on top of his P2P and current crop of stars, not everything will get a mention id expect or it’d be a very long stable tour… read between the lines with big pinches of salt..

          best of luck today everyone

              • Boost for Shanbally Kid form there with Polo Lounge hacking up at Limerick. Worth remembering Mullins then went on to buy Shanbally after he had beaten PL for Gigginstown.

                  • Dark Raven described as a staying type for hurdles. Let's hope he has got over his injury as he showed a lot of promise in his bumpers.

                        Fair enough mate, I thought he looked quite pacey in his bumper run and my initial thought was more mid trip horse, shame there was no mention in Willie's stable tour on him
