    After entries, my remaining hand is: Jet Powered and Impaire Et Passe (Plus potentially Irish Point - Any Race).

    Facile Vega has always been too short for me as a single and whilst he does appear in a number of early season RAB - I'm struggling to see an angle.

    Horses that I've backed and cashed out or lost are: Quais De Paris, Issuing Authority, Foxfire Glow, Immortal and Parmenion

    I know that quite a few will have Facile Vega from the Bumper/Supreme Double, but I'm finding that I may have to leave this to the day and utilise the concessions available once declarations have been made....
    I'm in a similar situation. I'm probably going to get Tahmuras onside as a muggy each way play. 14/1 looks ok to me. 1 of IEP or GW will go ballymore if not both... he's a big baby of a horse but can see him staying on up the hill if improves for the tolworth run. Cant lay a glove on FV but one to get onside i think. Other than that probably be roll ups in multis for FV.

      That Tolworth race on the face of it is no good, but I was with the third that day, Nemean Lion, who had earned a loft rating of 100 on the flat, he came there travelling really strongly approaching two out, made an error at that one and never really picked up after but he was still only 3.5l behind the winner and the fact they have entered this one suggests to me that they think he could improve and be competitive.
      I took 100/1 for the Supreme before the Tolworth and note he is still available at that price.
      The biggest negative for me is that he's trained by Kerry Lee and I commented at the time that he'd be more likely to win a Scottish National than a Supreme but he certainly has some class about him, just maybe he's the wild card.
      In fact, before I post this I'm going in again....

        Nope. Ballymore and Albert only. Makes sense based on his last run. Looked all over a Stayer to me. As owned by Ricci , if he does go Ballymore then you'd have thought G Warrior will go Supreme. He could go out to Albert though and leave Warrior in Ballymore and Parmenion in Supreme. Simples

              Cashed out on him, although still have big odds on exchange. Luccia still in though, could be trainers best novice this season.
              She would be a very interesting runner.

                • Princess Zoe entered in the AB catches the eye. 25/1 nrnb. Also 10/1 nrnb for the Mares Novice.

                  • Anyone seen the price of Embassy Gardens for the Potato race ?
                    You might want to be sitting down…

                      One of the worst prices out there

                      Won a nothing novice hurdle where the 2nd and 3rd fav didn't go a yard

                      Should be 14s-16s imo

                      ​​​​​​​he's priced up like he just won a grade 1 or grade 2

                        Absolutely horrendous it is

                        • Good Land only entered in the Ballymore... interesting
                          Wasnt sure after the possible entry and talk of running in the 3 mile race at DRF. Not sure if I like this route, prefer a 2m miler stepping up to 2 and a half, not the other way round. Still like the horse though

                            Weird isn't it.....

                            If Jupiter Du Gite was trained by Mullins and did what he did to older horses including a hyped up big money buy and a much more fancied stablemate, then he'd be very short for the Triumph and every person on here would be dribbling over him and have him in their book.

                            Funny old game Saint.

                            • Embassy Gardens's price should be cheered, means more value elsewhere right?
                              50/1 shot winning the AB this year?

                              • I'd be inclined to cash Jet Powered. Nicky in the RP Members Club Supreme piece tonight:

                                Jet Powered was disappointing at Newbury and he's just having a bit of a break, I'm not sure about him right now.

                                ^ Final line hardly inspires confidence...
