[SIZE=16px]Right, here we go.

* Ballyadam (County Hurdle)

Reasons:
Rewatch his run on Sunday when 3rd to Gaelic Warrior, he ran a seriously good race off 142, IRE added 2lb to 144 now

* Hes been 2nd in a Supreme, and 5th (btn 6L) in the County Hurdle last year off 144
* He was on a bit of a downer last season, aborted chase campaign, btn 23L in the International Hurdle on a hurdles run, and then 20th in last years Liffey Hurdle at the DRF, btn 68 lengths.
* In spite of that broken season, he travelled well, in a pocket at the back of the whole pack in the County Hurdle, blocked off then stayed on well, into 5th behind State Man.

* This season (hadnt run since July) his winter debut after a 6-Month break he ran an eye-catching 3rd to Gaelic Warrior, looking strong enough at the finish too.
* He equalled his best Hurdle RPR in Sundays race.
* I expect UK capper to give him maybe a 145-146 rating, and he's in a much better place this season to run a better race at the Festival.

Really like Ballyadam also for the county and you can get some 20s… looks a steal

One that might end up a bigger price than 20s.

People will very quickly look at 5th last year, and higher in the weights, so dismiss him.

Not that 20/1 isn't fair.... just wouldn't go crazy on the stake without BOG

EDITED THIRD OPTION, due to Hacker Des Places being Out For The Season.....

1) Sir Allen (Boodles)
2) Il Ridoto (Plate)
3) Thyme White (Grand Annual)

[Eggs]

….from what I can see, Lord Accord (Ultima) & Pembroke (County) look definite. Bit of a close thing with Fastorslow just edging Frero for a Plate nomination.

Much of a muchness after that, Sir Allen, Mr Incredible, Stumptown all in the points. I suppose something might change if/when weights are known.

Not long for folk to post their Handicap 1,2,3 or amend initial entries.

Are we still planning on ignoring Spectre 's Naiad and include Lord Accord ?

….from what I’ve read MoM never mentioned automatically including the Naiad but I might be wrong. His steer was for everybody to select 3 and the ones with most points would be included. I notice some have chosen Nassalam.
