No doubt.
But the bookies are robbing people.
Who is he going to beat at Warwick that matters ?
The Irish are serious challengers and even if only one looks the biggest threat his price should drift.
If Willie splits them at Dublin, we might even have 2 serious threats.
On paper.
Yep, from what I’ve seen Boothill is probably the best he could face at Warwick and he’s already beaten him comfortably.
I do see what you are saying, and maybe a performance in Ireland will provide a price drift, would be nice, but another good performance similar to his first two, I have serious doubts that will happen.
Be Nice to think so Jim ! ., I thought he looked the best out of Appreciate it , El Fab and himself , Very fluent Jumper .
A way to go yet though i suppose , and what Willie Mullins Plan's are ???.
Well, you'd have to fancy GDM
Back to 3 miles, had a decent prep run, more experienced than TSL who is coming off a fall
Starting to look like a main bet for me this week

I'd agree with you mate! Thought he looked exceptional for his chasing debut, hopefully the jumping can stay together when pressured.
Willie has said this lad would be suited most for the Irish Arkle sooooo we'll see, can see 2 of them going that route though.
I like to see how a novice copes with a bit of pressure, rather than a horse that completely has it all his way out front, before making big statements re jumping.
If others judge differently I have no problem with that, it’s just my thing.
It's really not
We've had lots of back on forth on Jonbon and its fairly obvious you are one of his biggest supporters.
Someone called Jonbon's jumping 'nice' after Sandown and you said he was an 'Absolute natural over fences'.
DD just won under similar circumstances which you describe as 'ok'.
Jonbon's jumping wasn't placed under any pressure on both starts yet you've posed the question 'Is he (Jonbon) the next in line after Sprinter, Altior, Shishkin?'
Both were foot perfect, both were front runners and both jumped unchallenged, so I find it inconsistent to reach such different conclusions about such similar circumstances.

I'm honestly surprised Dysart Dynamo is as high as 6's, he's the only one of the 3 mullins contenders that I don't have has any chance of stepping up, very nice round of jumping the way he just cantered around jumping freely reminded me of GDC's beginners chase last year

Yes I did say Jonbon looks a natural chaser and I stand by that. And yes I do like the horse, even if I don’t have a penny on him.But I did make that comment after his 2nd race, maybe I will say the same after DD’s next race!!
Nothing I saw today makes me think DD is not a natural,I’m really regretting that I didn’t say that now!!
But I stick to waiting till another race.
Apologies for inconsistency, weren’t meant.
I put Dysart Dynamo up there with Jonbon in terms of jumping, and probably ability too. No telling how they would have finished in the Supreme had DD stood up.
Only thing that seperates them for me is their price. I don't think either have beat a great deal yet though. I actually think the best horse Jonbon beat so far is Monmiral still. Boothill is good, but I think Monmiral is better, personally.
The acid test for DD will be when he steps up in grade, I imagine next time out.
