    Betfair hurdle more likely?
    Yeah, possibility although on what grounds they'd justify it is flaky.
    I expect they want to run anyway, so Betfair, get 8lbs for winning and run in county off 141

      The 16-1 NRNB with Hills is worth chancing I reckon.

        Yeah, I agree.

        Is the Betfair market up ante post?

                Very tempted to take a punt at that.

                They can't look at that mark and ignore it to go DRF surely? (Obviously I know he can, Willie is Willie) ....but fingers crossed...good ride for Jacob

                  Yep, always got a nose advantage with him on board.

                    Interesting difference of opinion on Mullins horse Ocastle des Mottes, UK rated 133, IRE 139.
                    Entered in Liffey and Betfair hurdle.
                    I'd imagine they'll favour the Betfair now or even straight to the County.

                    Better Days Ahead gets 136 IRE
                    Thought I'd read ODM got 133 in Ireland as well on Twitter, but assuming that's an error?

                      It does seem odd, but he's listed in the Irish Handicap site as 139, and also in the Dublin race as 139.

                        Funambule sivola seems to be going a little under the radar for the grand annual.
                        22/1 nrmb with hills seems a bit of a generous price to me.
                        winning a grade 2 as recently as February 2023.
                        Finishing the season a little disappointingly at Sandown after falling in the champion chase.
                        Campaigned solely in handicaps this season he has been reduced from a Mark of 156 to 148.
                        I don't need to talk about his back form it's pretty obvious he's been classy and run good races, but has he gone or being plotted at the grand annual?
                        My thoughts are the grand annual being the ultimate target, an entry this weekend at Doncaster could potentially see another lb or 2 being reduced from his rating.
                        I think he represents a fair bit of value and knowing a few on here have liked this fella in the past I thought it worth mentioning him.

                          Ocastle Des Mottes rating - British handicapper just does the French rating x 2 - 66.5 in France so 133 here. Not sure if the Irish try and weigh the form up but on a pounds to kilo scale, should be higher in both jurisdictions.

                                Ho My Lord given an easy spin to get his confidence back after unseating LTO. He would be interesting in the Plate. His debut 4 1/2 length second to Il Etait Temps was eye catching.
