Malone Road with a slight injury and may be ruled out.
That couple with yesterday’s performance by Envoi Allen has seen him almost punted into favourite!
I would be careful about betting on Envoi Allen, like I have, given the quote from Elliott below. That said, perhaps this may change if Malone Road is ruled out.
Elliott’s quote after Envoi Allen’s recent victory….
“He’s a nice horse but he’s a horse for next year. We’re only minding him this year. He’ll probably have one more run in a bumper and he won’t be going to Cheltenham. He’s a baby and has only been on grass once.”I wouldn’t even consider backing anything for the bumper until we see a bit more evidence.
Gordon doesn’t care about the bumper. He’s said words to that effect quite a few times publically now.
Nah, I think it’s Gigginstown that don’t care about it. Gordon wants to win everything.
Gordon had 8 winners at last season’s festival; do you not think he’ll be eager to better that again in March?
Sounds like this is wide open again

Larquebuse is a Savage horse but has been just given possibly one of the worst rides ever by Codd at Limerick
Timeform ratings on bumper horses this year just shows how many have yet to debut over hurdles from last season – more to come here over the coming weeks but I really liked King Roland and Eden du Houx so far, the latter with connections that have travelled this path well before. Inconceivable however that Mullins doesn’t come out with 2 or 3 in the next few weeks that rips up this market

107p ENVOI ALLENBlackbow is priced up for the Champion Bumper with Paddy Power; is that a mistake? Can you run in 2 Bumpers? he hasn’t debuted over Hurdles yet; presumably because of the ground
From memory, Vigil, trained by Dermot Weld was the last horse to run in 2. Ridden on both occasions by Pat Smullen
im sure a filly trained by JohnJo owned by Magneir raced in bumper two years on the trot, might have won one of them,, the name escapes me, mad into a high class hurdler,, late 90s,, early 2000s
quick racing post search, shows my old grey matter still working
Refinement 2nd in 2004,, 4th in 2005 editions of bumper
finished 3rd in Nicanor / Denmans novice hurdle in 2006
I’m going to have a go in this, a total guess, but at 33s will give it a try. At least for a day 😉
A horse called Andy Dufresne (I like the name as Shawshank Redemption is my favourite film) runs for JP Mcmanus tomorrow at Down Royal. One would expect those odds to tumble if he were to win well and they decide to go for this.
Although its a guess the horse has a tall reputation and was bought at the sales for a fair old sum so know a little bit about him at least.
