Sorry Jack, hardly been on the last couple of days with work, just seen your post.
He didn’t get any entries, as I was certainly looking for him. I’ve a feeling he might not be one of their Cheltenham team, but I really like him. As unlikely as it is with their other ammo, I’ve taken up to 690’s for The Ballymore.
He’d need to fair improve on today’s run!

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!He definitely would jack but still, gave a 125 rated horse 6lbs and won ok, probably ran mid 130s ish, would need to improve what 10lbs to be in the mix? Dont think thats totally out of the question! But more importantly, he keeps winning!
Davy all the way to ayr?
It wasn’t a “knock your socks off” performance, but I was happy with him at the finish.
Didn’t have him down as a guaranteed part of the yards Cheltenham team anyway, but if he did go that would be a bonus, and I would love them to consider The Ballymore.
He had quite a bit to do at the end of the race and I think he finished it off nicely. He’s definitely not slow that’s for sure. He seems to comfortably find more when asked. Difficult to say how it compares but I really like him.
This doesn’t really fall under the next year novice title, but how impressive did Breaken look yesterday at Limerick!
Mullins was quick to mention the ground, as the time seemed fast, but in comparison to the other 2m races, his time compared favourably. 2.7 secs faster than the juveniles carrying over a stone more…Sectionals would probably help compare better, as he did go out and make all at his own pace, but he looked impressive anyway. Probably one of the bus load of novices still not raced at Closutton.Twitter: Jackh1092
Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!Jack – I often find hose races where one horse is allowed to go 20+ lengths clear difficult to read. Sometimes I wonder whether the other jockeys just misjudged it and assumed the lead horse would come back to them. He looked pretty damn good and the stats you mention seem to back that up. I think I need to see him another race to form a firmer view. Perhaps we’ll see him at Punchestown.
I was disappointed not have seen Asterion Forlonge this year. Have you heard anything?
100% CNC, i do think he looks pretty good, but how good we will see! I wonder will they run him vs Klassical Dream….nothing to lose really.
I haven’t heard anything, i presume he’s one of the ones that he couldn’t get to the track.
