      Have seen worse, it wasn't Jasmin de Vaux levels but probably want something smoother for a Bartlett.

      • Does look like he stays all day to be fair, softer ground the better too.

        I’d say he’ll be on the boat for the Bartlett, what else does WPM have for the race at this stage? He could be PT’s ride, him or Port Joulain if we go by shortest in the market.

        P.S I’m just ignoring Final Demand as don’t want to mention him for the race in case folk get knickers in a twist again just pretend he’s invisible in the market

            I think he did enough today to line up in the AB. Jumped better today than at Xmas but not very stylish. Big motor though and just the type of slightly unfancied runner that wins the AB. As a backer (and with the Big Westerner form line) I'm quitely happy.

                  Jasmin De Vaux
                  Sounds Victorious
                  Supersundae
                  Argento Boy
                  Port Joulain


                  They Paul's choices at the moment then?

                  Maybe he'll just not have a ride to have a rest before the Gold Cup! Sounds mental to suggest but

                    I'd rather remove the risk of injury than ride one of those in the AB

                      Hahaha not a great bunch so far are they!

                      Didn’t go that far down in the betting for the other 3 you’ve mentioned.

                      Jasmin may be interesting, jumped better but still not great. Then again if he runs 4 or 5 JJ may just keep the ride.

                        Yeah, I suppose where does he draw the line

                        Not exactly got anything that exciting beforehand on the Friday

                        I suppose he'll be on something short ish in the County



                        Making up an entire narrative on him skipping a race as if he's not got space hopper balls to even do what he does haha

                        .... if he doesn't ride in the AB though I'm declaring myself a genius
                        and if he does, I'll say I was joking - obv

                          Can you get a price on it?

                          Imagine getting injured on a rag and missing GDC winning three in a row.

                            There is a worse thought. Imagine him getting injured on a rag and the human anchor riding GDC in the Gold Cup.

I have the MP down as a race for stayers so if a horse I fancy for that race can't get in, I'd only want to then back it for the Coral Cup, not the County. I personally don't think County winners would run well in the MP and vice versa.
                              I think a fast run 2 miles on the new course is what Karniquet wants as I don’t see him as a stayer myself. Hope he gets a run in the county but if it wasn’t for KDB, you’d say that rating would put you close & in the places for a supreme so the Ryanair mob may stick to graded races unless team Mullins think he’s still well in

                                Here's an hypothetical question and god forbid it happened but in that situation what price would GDC go out to and would you back him !?
