A big drifter in the Neptune Investment market which suggests he'll be aimed at  the 3 mile Albert Bartlett race on the Friday. Do you think connections are running scared of Simonsig or that he'll be better suited to the longer race on the more demanding new course?

Whichever one he goes in he will win, and nothing to be scared of in either race. 3 miler does look a little bit of a weaker field to me.

This is the way to play this one:-

10am Tuesday 12th March - decs for the Wednesday races come out. If (when) BB is declared for the Neptune, lump on. The price will drop like a stone within the hour. Alternatively, lump on for the AB if it isnt declared at that time. Again, the price will plummet within the hour.

We did this last year with Bob's Worth in the Albert Bartlett, got 13/2 with Will Hill at 10am Tuesday when it wasnt it the Neptune Decs, within the hour it was 4/1 and went off and won at 15/8

I agree with the theory but there isn't a whole lot of juice in his price for the Albert Bartlett (unfortunately).

Surely you would just take NRNB just now rather than wait a week?

It will run in the 3 miler. Look at the prices on here. Sous Les Cieux around 40-1 for Supreme but tight for Neptune. Bob drifting for Neptune but tight for 3 miler.

Mullins aint running scared of anything especially the non staying overhyped Simonsig

Looks like the ground is going to be good. Maybe they want to put the emphasis on stamina rather than speed.

I'm just hoping he runs Make Your Mark in the Neptune - have taken the 16/1 nrnb jsut in case.
