    Cheers. Any clues as to his number 1?? On racecourse form it has to Croke Park for me.

      Has he changed his mind then? Re Croke Park

        Just coming to his senses after BDA struggled to beat SS last time. He'd be giving both of those weight if it were a handicap and made Ballyburn work hard for it on his last run. Fully deserves to travel over.

          I’m not saying he doesn’t deserve to.
          GE said he’s not a horse for the BANC because of his doubts about staying.
          Be interested to know his thoughts now and what if anything has changed his view.

          Your opinion is not really what I’m after, valued as it is all the same.

            But he's won twice this season already over 3m ?? Is that not evidence?

              He knew that before he said what he said.

              • He's a non stayer in the same way Dinoblue is for the Mares...

                  • Anyway, if anyone can let me know if they hear anything from GE as to whether he’s changed his mind or not, be most grateful.

                        Thanks Aaron
                        Dont say what’s changed from before though.
                        Maybe it’s owner driven?
                        See if he says something soon as to what’s changed.

                        • Why does anything need to have changed?

                          His opinion was daft. He's changed it. We move on. I wouldn't let that impact my betting.

                          Not sure Gordon's ever won the BANC mind has he. Why wouldn't he throw everything at it. And maybe the ones he doesn't think suited are actually his best

                            It does impact the way I’m looking at the race.
                            Thats why I asked.
                            I had the same opinion as he had.
                            I still don’t know if or why he’s changed his mind.
                            And it’s something that I am interested in.

                            I weren’t looking at a discussion about it, that’s already been done on here the other week after he said he was a doubtful stayer.

                            • Nothings changed. IMO

                              Trainers spout bullshit after races sometimes, and say other stuff that don't always make complete sense. Or just meaningless tropes and drivel.
                              Not saying this is always or ever meant to deliberately mislead. And sometimes they provide valuable information.
                              Just got to decipher it best you can.

                              But for the types that hang on every word it can be difficult to wrestle with.
                              Pass the Kool-aid.

                              And he's not even declared any of them yet.
                              Even then, he's not opposed to pulling them on the day.

                                Yep I appreciate all that and you are absolutely correct.

                                Anyway, I can just stick to my take on his horses for now , until decs time, as doubt much will change in the way of odds now and all the time the fav is around.
