  • Hate small number races like that. Hope Jonbon just gets on with it like Nube Negra did otherwise it could get really messy. At least his price shouldn't fluctuate too much for those not already on. Might as well watch it first before going in.

      If he beats monmiral he will definitely get cut quite a bit

      He's already horrendously short, so hate to think what he would be if he won well

      • Thought Unexpected Party ran a nice race today behind McFabulous, with West Cork out on Wednesday back at 2m, I'd say Dan Skelton has an eye on the Grand Annual/Plate with these two!

        Anyone think Shantreusse could just improve heaps for fences tomorrow? Had a good novice hurdle campaign and only blew out of sorts in the Albert Bartlett on good ground, seems to need some give, wouldn't write him off.

        • To me Shantreusse and Bronn need 4m rather than the 2m5 tomorrow.

          Freedom to Dream (one of this parish!) looks the interesting one - 4L 4th to Banbridge and Hollow Games in the Martin Pipe - EW shout tomorrow, but Gerri should win.

            Agree, but they almost all start over shorter regardless of what they'll eventually need.

              Good point that Martin Pipe form. Both Banbridge and Hollow Games have come out and looked very impressive.

              I'd imagine Freedom to Dream will be a decent TWAR price.

              I'm not feeling the love for Gerri. Was the same last season.

                I thought the same last year, but having just watched the Robcour podcast that was linked on here, I wonder how much JWM potentially moving is down to how much they fancy Gentlemansgame. It wouldn't be dissimilar to Willie giving his best horse first choice anyway.

                GMG was mentioned on here a little while back, I think by Winging The Last so he was on my radar anyway, but I've switched my bet's around as a result of the podcast comments to have GMG and GC (RSA), JWM (Turners). I think JWM could place in a Turners so is worth an EW at 33/1 if you bet that way like me, but agree he's probably not worth a win bet.

                  • I bloody love Gerri Colombe. Just something about him. Don't think he's the easiest to keep sound and they seem to think he needs soft ground, so wouldn't be plunging too much on him for the Festival, but he's a really likeable type.

                    Thought his jumping improved no end when he was pushed into his fences and attacked them a bit more. He should take high rank amongst the Irish novices this year.

                    • Gerri won nicely there. But not 7/1 for the RSA nicely, Paddy Power!

                      • …Geri into 14-1 & as low as 7-1 for BANC (PP) after that win, 20-1 available for Turners. Into 10-1 TWAR with Hills.

                        • Good start up against some decent opposition from Gerri, really warmed to it on the final circuit.

                          • One to probably leave until the week itself in view of him being very ground dependant and fragile and possibly missing Festival all together to go to the Irish National but he's done that very well in a decent race.
