    Don’t know if bachasson will go here but PP more in tune at 20/1 than the rest at 33s. This is a tough little horse. :good:

    Min could win, but I think BUVEUR D’AIR (FR) could produce a shock victory (well MINI SHOCK AT LEAST). :whistle:

    You've got to accentuate the positive.
    Eliminate the negative.
    Latch on to the affirmative.
    Don't mess with mister in between.

    I think Min is the most likely winner but I can’t back him at his current price. If he somehow went to 5/2 I’d invest but anything shorter I probably won’t unless it’s part of a few accas/multiples.

    I’ve been impressed by him but perhaps not to the extent that I have been with previous Mullins horses in similar scenarios. He’s a very sound jumper but I wonder if he’ll find much up the hill.

    Yorkhill not declared but Bellshill is for this one. Mullins with a late change of heart it seems.

    Patrick mullins has said that Willie is useless with names. Maybe he just said Yorkhill instead of bellshill to an interviewer by mistake ha. Anyway makes more sense to put bellshill in this cause he doesn’t stay. Yorkhill does

    So 14 head to post, you’d need to be a bleedin clairvoiyant to see where
    Willie Mullins is going.

    Min was the only one of his that was always going here, and if he is as good
    as Mullins thinks, he wins. I’m surprised you can get 2/1 on him today, I think
    that will disappear.

    I’ve got MIN in a couple of accas, but for an outright bet I went for SILVER
    CONCORDE at 20s, I think he has a very realistic chance of a place, and if there
    is any mishap to MIN he could win this. The 20s has gone but 16/1 is still a decent
    bet.

    Best of luck :good:

    Yorkhill must be a very good horse for Willie to take on Yanworth.
    I think it shows how much he thinks of Min aswell.
    Min, Douvan, Annie Power and VVM the opening day 4 fold.

    I think you won’t be far off with that Nathan. I’ve gone ante post for
    Min, Douvan, Annie Power, Yanworth and Bristol De Mai. I’ll be sweating
    come Thursday if the 1st 4 shorter priced nags have won and I’m waiting
    on BDM at 5/1 in the 1st. I’ll be there to see him in person, but probably
    in more of a muck sweat that the horses :wacko:

    Just added, Oops …….thought I better sort out the above faux pas

    If I’m there on Thursday, in a muck sweat…..it’s because I’ve arrived on
    the wrong day….I’m going on Friday !!!

    The Festival hasn’t even started and I’ve lost it already :wacko:

    Victor Chandler rep Jack Milner on RUK says Min is very strong in the market at 7/4.
    FFS, that must be why every bookmaker (including VC) is pushing him out! :negative:
    The horse was weak before he sid it and weak afterwards.

    The weakness for me in Min is he dosent seen relaxed as the other winners vatour and douvan,He seems to just do everything at 100 miles a hour,where the past winners used to relax and conserve energy to get up the famous hill…That’s the reason why I will take him on tomorrow and just think his temperament and the occasion might find him out..Just think the price is too short as well.

    I’ve backed the Hendo twosome too Raymo. Altior the main (and each way bet) with B’D’A as a saver; not that I’ve got the prices you’ve got. Other main bet is Charbel (win bet) @ 25/1. Lot of the time the first race is slower run than others, jockeys don’t know what the ground is. Charbel could be in the right place.

    Sadly, we hear him make them quite often.
