I might have two spare for the Tuesday and Wednesday but won't know till nearer the time.
 
The storyteller
Novice handicap chase nrnb bog 16/1

The best horse in the betting imo. If he somehow scrapes in which is possible. I'd be all over him.

Black Corton RSA
Old Guard Coral Cup? - She rode him at Chelt on NYD

Probably not loads.... she's only had 4 rides in the last 2 weeks... Nicholls doesn't aim everything at the festival either...
 
Day 1 - The "mug acca" :devilish::highly_amused:
Getabird
Footpad
Buveur D'air
Apple's Jade

35/1 with Lad/Coral best price
or
32/1 with WH (non runner unless target switches)
or
25/1 with Sky (full NRNB)

I haven't got Getabird in any multiple so while I was playing around I did check this out and the thing I'd LOVE is that they get easier as the day goes on

Getabird clearly has the most on his plate..... Footpad looks a worthy fav but has a few question marks. Buveur D'air may have to face Faugheen/Yorkhill but clearly sets the standard and Apple's JAde only has to jump around:highly_amused:

IF the first two won, I'd feel as confident as I did the year Annie lined up in the Mares :highly_amused:
 
Have just had a yankee with SJ at 1667/1 (its 1007/1 NRNB)

Cause of Causes 4/1 XC
Apple's Shakira 10/3 Triumph
Cracking Smart 6/1 Potato
Burning Ambition 10/1 Foxhunters

I'm in the same position Kev, and guess what , i just wrote out virtually the same , but I have added Altior and gone L.31.
Little bit of Desperation , and Risky , but like you i think if getabird comes in , the others will follow.
Until willie put'sGetabird in the Ballymore anyway !!. :highly_amused:
 
Saldier triumph hurdle 40/1 nrnb bog

Entered up after being gelded
Cashed out style de garde and on to the next one. Being in the colours of ricci he will never be bigger than 40/1 so if he dosent win id be assuming i can cash out for full value making it a bet to nothing. Dont hold me on that though.
If you take his form literally with the distance to the horses in front it's cracking flat form, however the French races are ran at a slow gallop and it does flatter him. He's got a high enough flat rating anyway to say he has ability.

It's riccis only juvenile, form aside I'm hoping Willie and Pierre boullard have worked they're magic here and he can atleast win his maiden and we will go from there.
 
Gallahers cross ballymore. 150.0
I really liked his bumper run last time out, he won hs ptp well so jumping shouldnt be an issue. this trip would look perfect at chelt or Aintree. Obviously needs entering up shortly

Would give the owners.
Claimantakinforgan supreme
Gallaghers cross ballymore
Mr whipped bartlett

Hi Nicky, will GALLAHERS CROSS stay in Bumpers and when are we going to see CHAMP? Been looking forward to seeing him all season, he looks exciting!

Two very good questions as you are right, they are both very exciting horses. Gallahers Cross will go straight over Hurdles but I wanted to get a run into him in a Bumper to see what his best trip would be and he ran very well at Ascot so I’d say 2m4f over timber is what we’ll do. Champ has been suffering with sore shins but is over that now and back working again. He’ll be out pretty soon.

It is in my eyes
people quick to write off a nice horse after a couple of runs which they see as disappointing. They're at the highest grade over 3 miles they're decent runs and He travels well. Dropping back in trip, in not saying hes going to win but hes not without a chance
I'd have thought he will go here too.

Good price as I've checked him sporadically wanting a big price and didn't get one!

300+ on a horse than came 2nd in the race!
