2026 Novice Hurdlers

Fucking enjoyed that one.
Gonna put on some Kylie now,:love:
 
The fact there is still 33's and 25's around is madness
 
….Hills clip Deviluno into 25-1 AB, PP 14-1, 365 16-1.
 
Gewon Thedevil, he’s a fair yoke, he’ll ate up the hill in March.

It’s purely down to an unfashionable trainer. Nolan is well able to ready them for Cheltenham & he has gone very close in the Bartlett before. Horse has the perfect profile for the race & plenty of age on his side at 7.

Me and you been on these formlines all season 👍 2 smashing rides from the jockey too.
It's a long straight at Donny and he timed both perfectly.
Hope he's as good at Cheltenham in March.

Sean o'keefe is a gem of a rider on a friday at Cheltenham so big plus if Nolan can book him in. He takes the Paul townend line and his horses out run their odds.
In albertt bartlett he has had:
The Nice Guy, 1st at 18s
Spread boss Ted 4th at 40s
Sander clegane, 3rd at 28

Won the pipe on Galopin as well.

Nolan doesn't waste time bringing horses he thinks are no hopers so I always pay attention to any of his

Good boost for Dr Steinberg too

Compare that last race at Cheltenham to the Lawlors and the prices available on the horses involved is a massive bonus to anyone with common sense.
 
Now we know the Mullins juveniles and novices were weeks behind in their work, and we assume Doctor Du Mesnil was undercooked for his debut then Thedeviluno gives him a huge form boost today. The Doctor beat him 11 lengths in his bumper so be very interesting to see what happens on Monday

Reasonably surprised Dr Steinberg is still available at 25/1 for the Turners. Form boost today from Thedevil and obv slashed for the AB.

Is antepost fav for the Nathaniel Lacy and quite possibly Paul’s ride. When Final Demand won it last year I remember Willie’s interview and the AB wasn’t even a consideration, despite many people seeing it as the ideal race. If Dr S wins well next week then why would Willie change his MO from last yr. Would still have strong looking AB options with other horses.

The market leader, No Drama, would appear to be a horse in the same type of mould.

Not saying I think he’d win the Turners but could easily see events unfolding which would see him run there.

DDM’s Monday run may help shape things.

I mentioned it couple pages back, that race is not where I’d want to see my Turners fancy running.

Think it’s a better trial for the Bartlett than the turners. WPM has sent more 3m with better chances than turners from the Nathaniel Lacy recently, he didn’t have 2 stick out candidates that had the blend of speed and stamina for the Supreme and Turners last year which is why Final Demand probably went there by default.

1.55 tomorrow looks a good race, will be keeping a eye on how Shuttle Diplomacy does. Anyone know much about Arcadian Emperor?

If Shuttle Diplomacy runs well could give a nod to King Rasko Grey. Entered in the tattersalls and seen some support in the market. He done well last time out see him possibly as a turners horse.

Who do we think Paul will ride in the tattersalls?

Kilgame also in the race tomorrow, from the El Cairos race.
