Based on todays running I thought Yorkhill looked a likely Neptune type. This is aligned with what Patrick Mullins said earlier in season on Final Furlong Podcast. Wille just said on ATR he might drop him back to 2 miles at Christmas. All bookmakers shortened Yorkhill across the Board for Supreme, Neptune and AB which I think makes him an Ante Post non bet especially as we have no clue what race he will actually run in. I have taken the contrary view that Yorkhill looks a Neptune horse which leaves Bellshill for the AB and have taken advantage of the 20/1 for Bellshill in AB. I hope my instinct is right.

I think Up for Review is surely going for the AB. I think Bellshill is more in the mold of Shaneshill (same sire) and would be aimed at the Supreme with Yorkhill being the Neptune horse.
Shaneshill is certainly JLT bound with Killultagh Vic and Pont Alex more RSA types than him. Douvan for the Arkle.

I think Yorkhill is likely to end up in the Supreme - the strong travelling, speedy but staying type that Willie likes for this race. Champagne Fever & Vautour are good examples. They believed that Douvan would win at any trip.

I agree with cvb. Yorkhill already has the form over further where Bellshill hasn't, so if they are to be split up, that would make sense. I think Yorkhill might be a fair bit better though.

My thinking is if this mythical Min is their Supreme good thing then the better of Bellshill or Yorkhill will be the no1 Neptune horse. I think Yorkhill is the better of the two gauging on the bits and pieces Patrick Mullins and others have said about it along with what I've seen.

Patrick has already said he thinks Bellshill is the strongest stayer - he nominated the AB as his likely target, but that was before Up For Review ran so well. Agree with CVB regarding Up For Review - he looks like an AB horse, doesn't he? So if they want to keep them apart, I can see Bellshill being the Neptune horse and (for the reasons outlined earlier) Yorkhill as the Supreme entry. Let's see if Min turns out at Punchestown on Thursday.
