Very nice performance today and arguably purely on merit he should be favourite for the Supreme. Henderson is building a nice team for Cheltenham as are the owners.

Henderson has trained the last 4 seconds.....he deserves to get a Supreme winner !

I can't have this at all for a Supreme.

0/6 in France. Won a mickey mouse there and time before was probably gonna get turned over by a horse that would get hammered in a Supreme.

No idea how he could be made fav tbh.

Biggest worry is obviously the ground.

A key trend - Twelve out of the last thirteen winners have raced at least once in the previous forty-five days before the Cheltenham Festival.

When you look at the head of the market, it's absolutely no surprise to me that he's nearly fav. What else definitely turns up? You can't be sure about any of the Mullins runners then it's Jollyallan and Silver Concorde.

That is the only thing putting me off backing him. The horse would need a prep run.

Silver Concorde the value for me if still being aimed here after his Christmas defeat, can't find anything from post-race regarding his plans now though.

Won well enough though the 2nd should be a 50/1 chance for the Supreme, so we shouldn't get carried away. Ground was pretty desperate today but I think the horse would be better for good ground, based on his breeding. His best run in England was probably his debut at Newbury, so maybe Nicky wants to take him to the Festival fresh?

Very good performance today, especially given how well Harrys horses are running. Horse didn't like the ground either I don't think.

Should be fav for Supreme imo.

He did all that was asked of him today. At Newbury he hammered Kilcooley off levels and he's rated 155 now!!!! Not worried about the prep as Henderson can get them ready and he has the french experience. Good chance in my book.

Gonna get stuck right into this on the pink. Frys horse today would get mullered in the Supreme.

7/1 seems fair enough to me, if it was nrnb I'd be lumping on with a view to lay off on the day.

The Delloite Hurlde may yet throw up a new favourite if one of Mullins wins impressively, like Vautour last year, but even then L'AS will surely be clear 2nd fav. Looks a very weak English crop of 2m novices that's for sure.

Don't win the race very often does Hendo.
Think he has better juveniles than this one, one of them should run imo.
By:

When: 03 Jan 15 20:17
Hendo said in his interview, as long as this horse is sound "No 4 year olds will run". He seemed very bullish!!

Budd you suggesting Triumph winner to run ?
By:
CVByrne
When: 03 Jan 15 20:21
Jesus the Supreme is dire this year. What Mullins runs 3? one for JP, one for Wylies, one fr Ricci and Hendo has Munirs ones.
By:

When: 03 Jan 15 20:25
I know what he said,dont mean I agree.
Think both peace and co and Top Notch would be serious threats in the Supreme with the allowance.
Why not run one in the race,both look well capable of winning the Triumph and their biggest danger is probably the owners horse trained by NTD,so owner aint got much to lose and a lot to gain by having 2 in the Supreme imo,as he would also have 1st and 2nd favs in the Triumph!!

What is going to beat Lami? Nothing apart from stablemate or maybe Mullins Horse, but CV knows?

Munir said some of his juveniles will wait for Aintree so I'd be wary of backing his for the Triumph.

L'ami serge isn't the easiest to keep sound, Just saying don't go all in any who like his chances.

If ever their was a year for running a top juvenile in the Supreme this is it.Race has no stand out good thing that I can see
Be a shame if an owner that has 4 decent ones did not run 1 of them in the Supreme imo
By:

Gut where did you hear that has run 3 times in last 6 weeks!!!
By:

Just people in racing Steve, Has gone lame a few times of late fortunately he has been fit enough to not be hampered by a few days off here and there, it's why they are resting him until the big day now.
By:

I didn't back today as was lame wednesday/thursday of this week, Thought he was a good thing but played it safe just in case.

Must be decent then lol!
By:

Very lol, probably just knocks himself at home, Might even be a bit of a fairy about it like some are but do know it's something they've had a few times with him since he arrived.

Spirit Son and Sprinter didn't really enter the Supreme reckoning until February, Gilgamboa was late on the scene last year, so I'm hoping there might be one more to come to the fore yet.

Douvan looks like no slouch considering the horse he brushed aside won a G1 next time out.

I think there could be a few twists yet.
By:

Not even had a bet yet in it myself Chief, Just haven't seen one that gave me that wow factor yet.

Bit of a childish dig stevo.

Blimey almost went 10 replies without a Mullins horse being mentioned,is a average race at moment but think may have seen winner today? But race stats against it .

Same here mate. Last few years I have always had a decent sized bet in this race but none at all for me at all.

Last few runnings at this stage I have been on Darlan, My Tent or Yours and Vautour. If only we had one of those in it this year.

I accept My Tent getting beat, but I'll never know how Cinders and Ashes managed to beat Darlan.
