Question is whether he will run or not?

I still can't see him running all 3 of dysart, el fab and Appreciate It against each other

It'd be some race of he did

And if any of them wins with a bit in hand I suspect jonbon may not even be fav when the tapes go up as the Irish money will flood for the horse with townend on if its won at the DRF

He could run all 5.
The jockeys would kind of slot in, and they are all different owners.
Whoever is declared, I'd say every horse running is probably better than any horse Jonbon has faced over fences to date.
Jonbons' price is odds on to drift.
Unless something other than a Mullins horse wins, or it's a blanket finish.
If one of his wins easy enough, then they should be favourite, and will be on the day IMO.

I definitely see 2/1 being available on jonbon on the day

I think that’s probably the only hope of Jonbon drifting, the scenario of one of Mullins winning easily.
Selfishly I hope it happens cos I can then have a decent bet on Jonbon.
Although for the race itself would prefer a closer finish on Saturday, be great to have a more open Arkle.

3’s would be better!!

Anyway Dublin and Warwick should determine things I be would think

[Brooksie]

It would be comical if Fil Dor, Visonarian and Banbridge fight out a finish in the Irish Arkle. When so many have spent the whole season trying to figure out which Mullins horse will be the best 2 miler in Ireland

David Mullins said on festival focus he’ll be shocked if sir g goes anywhere other than the turners. Said he’s a speed horse, not a stayer. The aul bingo is fairly heating up

I'm going to Warwick very much looking forward to seeing him

Went last year and saw two Cheltenham winners

There’s worse bets about than the 16 nrnb for Banbridge imo.
Can see him running a big race Saturday

The lack of attention for Fil D'or in discussions around the irish arkle has been eye opening,can see him running a very big race myself,just a shame 5yo's don't get an allowance in the Arkle anymore as that puts me off of supporting the horse for march.

Have a feeling Kilcruit might be on a going day at the DRF. He could get back in the mix. Bit of a forgotten horse. Adamantly Chosen has only one entry as well.....Turners. All to play for.

I've just backed Kilcruit for the Brown Advisory at 33/1 NRNB. He isn't qualified for the NHC yet so it looks like it's between the BANC or Turners. He's an enigma and maybe hasn't lived up to the hype, but has previous festival form having placed in the bumper and the supreme. The supreme run wasn't as bad as I remembered (only 2 lengths behind Jonbon) and he's always one that I thought would appreciate a step up in trip.

If he bombs out at the weekend, there's no damage done.

You know it makes sense FM

[PresentingPercy]

Elliot confirming that the Scilly Isles Chase at Sandown this weekend is the plan for Gerri Colombe. Time to cashout those NHC bets I think..

[Madmoose]

With that news would they send Minella Crooner to the Ten Up to qualify for the NHC maybe?

Hopefully he does turn up and run, however there is a serious lack of rain over the next few days and the ground is showing as Good/Soft already, so it wouldn't be his supposed softer ground, although I think he'd probably be just fine on better ground anyway, myself.
