Do we think JDR could go Ballymore? I had assumed he would be Nicky’s Supreme horse but what with Willmount and Jango Baie seemingly 2 milers, I’m beginning to have second thoughts.

JB is interesting to me and I’ve backed him ages ago, but I am wondering if all is ok with him? Not ran for a while. Was entered today but got taken out.

More than entitled to improve and he is entered in the Tolworth which is a good sign, although Nicky's openly bashed the race being there so I wouldn't read too much into that meaning JB is at the top of Nicky's novice pecking order, but, if he won that well and ironed out those novice mistakes he comes into the equation for sure.
Yes he has to improve his performance but be very interesting if he does.
Im willing to forgive novices early on as they are learning,especially if price appeals.
Will see how much he’s learnt in the Tolworth.

I see your point but even so he's not a 6/4 shot in the remaining field. Although he has always been the fav.
