Both just not good enough.
SH is just very one paced. Needs a proper test. He'll probably just go to the Albert now as an extra dart for Willie. The extra distance might tweek some improvement.Last edited by Lobos; 9 February 2023, 03:43 PM.

We'veallbeencaught let the form of Hermes Allen down a little in Ireland recently, but his Challow form is starting to look a lot better.
And definitely makes the mare who came second to him very interesting. She may want further as she is entered in the ballymore and bartlett I suppose but I'll be watching for her next entry.

True though, 4th ,5th and 6th beaten miles have come out and won next time.

I know he was shit today, but rare editions connections not ruling out cheltenham.
STD didn't get the same feel today as kempton.
Refers to menorah getting beat over 2m3f then winning a supreme.
I thought i was an optimist
Fergal O’Brien praised his team at home before admitting he was ‘over the moon’ with the victory of Marble Sands, who took his form to new levels in the M1 Agency Sidney Banks Memorial Novices’ Hurdle at Huntingdon.

Diverge seems an awful price now to me. Not many supreme winners go in on the back of a win in a maiden hurdle imo. Can't recall the last to do so but there's probably one?
Be surprised if there's two though!
The Supreme isn't a race that often throws up shocks is it. Labaik the one I remember but he came with a big reputation and winning graded form, but had refused to race a few times since.
