  • From what i've seen so far this season the novice hurdlers trained in britain are going to be much more competitive at cheltenham this year......
    I know I might generally be considered a little narrow sighted so i'd like to hear what everyone else is thinking.

        Supreme I think yes, but the Bally and AB look very Irish strong to me.

          Don't think iv seen one novice hurdler yet this season either side of the sea that I thought looked a cheltenham winner

          Xmas will reveal plenty more

          • Yes Carnage at Taunton nicky seems to possibly have a good hand for the supreme this year, a couple more i was thinking trained by others who might end up in the race too.... Ben pauling looks to have a few nice novices, so does harry fry, nicholls probably feels a little disappointed with his bunch. As for the bartlett Minella missile is one you need to possibly have a good look at if you haven't already considered him.

            FinalFurlong91 I agree with what you're saying but surely we have, right?

              We've probably seen all of them, unless mirazur west wins one

              Just they've not run in competitive enough races yet

              That Firefox/Ballyburn clash was probably the only time two contenders have actually clashed

              • Has anyone heard anything on Mirazur West? Slightly worried we haven’t seen him yet.

                  • I’d really not worry yet. It’s not unlike Willie to send one of his better ones out in late December. Impaire Et Passe last year, Sir Gerhard the year before.

                    The exchange has very limited liquidity still. So just a lack of an entry will reduce the amount of backers. There’s not much more than 20 pound looking to back any of the market.

                      He's entered for Future Champions Novice Hurdle at Leopardstown on 27th Dec. Early entry....but an entry.

                      • Murphy has a plan in place for his next race, but is in no hurry to rush Booster Bob this season. He said: "I think the next race for him would be the Supreme Trial at Haydock in January. Do I think he's a Supreme horse? No. I don't want to do too much with him this year, but he's got a lot of ability and he handles testing ground. He's going to be a lovely chaser next year."

                        • Killaney king tomorrow, going to have to be a fair animal to win.

                          Blizzard of oz getting a timely boost with florida dreams.

                          Looking forward to seeing what he's all about.

                              Robcour rated him as one of their top Novices at the beginning of the season along with An Tobar.

                              • The form Gordon is in it's hard to look past Rainbow Trail . Killaney and Blizzard will be up against it trying to beat him tomorrow.
