2024 Novice Hurdlers

[Kevloaf]

For reference, a week ago it was

Supreme:
Ballyburn: 2.48
Mystical Power 8.6

Baring Bingham
Ballyburn 3.75
Mystical Power 9.4

Obviously these are just snapshots whenever I did my update.

As much as I've said that I think Ballyburn going to the Supreme is the wrong way around, and I'd love him to go for the Baring Bingham, I'm still thinking that it's people reacting to Ruby's comments rather than anything changing. If it had happened tomorrow when they're doing their final work then I'd buy into it more, but unless they both escaped and went for a midnight gallop then I'm struggling to buy into it.

Similar happened with Sir Gerhard last season.

Quite happy to say I'm not getting involved, but it's quite fun to watch

Ballyburn matched for 20 quid at 2.52 in BB

Glad I'm on for both and can just laugh at these moves as if I was only on for one this would be getting rather tiresome

Yup, I covered my position a while back so I didn't have to worry about this. I just love watching the exchange

Kind of dodgy though if this is stable money again.

Nothing has happened to Ile Atlantique / Mystical Powers prices has it?

MPs gone from 4.5ish to 6ish. Probably the lay side that's more interesting on him though...

Hardly anything to lay on the mystical power side for BB, wasn't anything to lay for around 10-15 minutes earlier

[Kevloaf]

Similar happened to Sir Gerhard last season didn't it

I'm just naturally dubious (easy to do when you've covered both)

I think the stable money went down a while ago, and they won't do their work today, so seems fishy!

[Kevloaf]

20/1 NRNB for Ile Atlantique Supreme still catches the eye

[Exar Essay]

Trying to think what could be causing the moves and the best I can come up with is that it's Paddy Power preview tonight and I assume it is filmed today and Ruby has said something about BB's destination. I've no idea though and as Kev says, Tuesday is the day to expect decisions.

Slade Steel was also 40s for the Supreme last night, he's 14.5 now.

Do agree something weird is happening, but if it's not from info then someones putting a fair chunk into making it look that way! Probably as big a move (volume wise) as last week now.

I would have said the same about the Mystical Power moves last week as well though, and it seems like that was more than a few comments from stable tours.

Yep

[FinalFurlong91]

He's now the same price for both

Only logical conclusion is he's going to run in both races
