A nice recruit from France. She's been working nicely and will run in a juvenile hurdle in the coming weeks.

Are you still ruling her out due to the trainer?

[darlojim]

No I'm willing to give her the chance on her debut at least JM. Henry finding some consistent form too which he hasn't had for a while now too!

[ComplyOrDie]

Made a change for a couple of bookmakers to hold a price on Kala Conti today. She beat nothing but done as well as she could have. Think 25/1 is decent enough as I imagine she could be Gordon's number one for the Triumph.

Friend of a friend is a new owner within GE's, has bought former juvenile horse Wolf Prince + more interestingly Bottler'secret...Set to start all being well at Leopardstown over xmas. Sounds like they like him + his flat form looks pretty positive indeed. One to watch out for anyway, had a quick scan of the results for the juvenile maiden at xmas + Gordie doesn't often send a star to it- unless i'm missing one or two.

….Kala Conti enhanced to 18-1 a/r in Hills specials (14-1 Boodles with Unibet).

BURDETT ROAD given a 133rpr for Saturday.

Five of the last six Triumph winners hit a minimum of 141 after 2 runs according to Sax's stats.

If you completely ignore his Huntingdon run and use Cheltenham as his seasonal debut then he still only ranks joint sixth of the last 9 Triumph winners/

My view - for what it's worth -is that he's a loose cannon and is very hard to access.

He's a very slick hurdler some of the time and then he'll just walk straight through one or two.

Still pulled a bit on Saturday but he seemed a lot more tractable than at Huntingdon.

And to come from off the pace in that ground on Saturday and win by so far shows he has a load of talent.

But strikes me there will always be a touch of Goshen about him.

Certainly wouldn't want the mortgage on him - but he is very much the joker in the pack.

I wouldn't be shocked if that got an upwards review...

Whilst I agree with much of this ….tbf, it’s hard for an English horse to get a high rating given the poor competition here in juveniles

I do think BR is the best Triumph hope we have had for a few years

It does look like Gordon doesn’t have much as they usually run at DR if he has a good one ….so all eyes on Willie as usual

I can't believe I backed Far West instead of Our Conor
Neither went off fav....

Bonus point for the name of the horse who went off fav (without checking)

I know I backed it and it was with Henderson I think, but can't remember the name. without looking

Darlan ?...

[Bunkoffearly]

Joseph horse can’t remember name
definitely McManus horse

[Salubrious Chin]

The only other horse I can remember from the race was Diakarli but don't think he was the favourite?

[ComplyOrDie]

I've just had a look, not going to lie I would never, ever, have got it
