Great stuff DD  Looks like the going is good/good to soft- so looks like it will be great jump going- forecast looks fine.

The first race the Sumpreme novices is a great race and challenging from a betting perspective.

I think the Mullins hot pot fav looks a bit too short for my liking as there are some good horses in the race which looks very competitive..

I have layed the fav and backed 6,and 11.

there has been money for the bromhead horse workahead which is interesting.

no doubt the fav will hose in.Shocked

The arkle has been blown up by the injury to the ante post fav..

who i backed incidentaltyAngry

fav looks good but very short so im taking a chance on the skelton horse who looks decent at 5/1.

deffo one to put in your ew accas

disappointing turn out for a top top race

there are 4 very short priced favs on first day

might be worth putting them all in a  4  time acca just in case they come in.. but backing all the good uns against them

in the ultima (3rd race) i really like Broadway Boy at 10/1

its a grade 2 winner and shd be too good for this lot.

got top weight coz its the best horse but i think it can win this its won on the ground and is being backed into fav

get on lads

Eveing Dragon the fav was mighty impressive, never got off the bridle in that Grade 1 in Ireland, but short. Workahead beat William Munny easily enough last time out, but there are a few to oppose the fav with. Not sure what to do tbh, I do fancy Kopek.

Was on Gaelic last year as it hosed up in the Arkle, now missing, and Majborough another one from last year looks heard to beat and acca material only.

Ultima, don't like the fav, gonna back Crebilly and maybe BB as you suggested as well.

Champion Hurdle, probably just a watch for me, with CH in some sort of acca.

Good luck all. I will just have a stab at the three handicaps tomorrow. The favs are too short in the hot races for me and a four horse acca at 13/2 doesn’t appeal at all.

I can’t get excited about it like I used to. Not the spectacle it once was. Having said that it is still the best week in the NH racing calendar.

Backed Kopek @ 9/4 to win by 3L+, my thinking on this is if it is a monster that it could win pretty easy.

Crazy

Kopek, bad jump at last cost me.

Something wrong with Workahead.

fav wins supreme relativly easily. bookies running for cover
By:

When: 11 Mar 25 14:30
Munny ran well, jockey did well to get it covered and that settled him after pulling hard early on. Lots of nonsense spoken about Kopek's temperament it seems, Mullins knows what he's doing.

i did it with the other short priced favs in an acca. i bet a lot of punters have done likewise.

already shaping up(i hope im wrong) for anther boring mullins fest.the more days/racers that are added to the festival the more  diluted  and  uncompetitive the non handicaps become. if ever something has been ruined by the greed of more and more its this meeting. the days of 5/1 the field in the novice/championship races are   well and truly over.

might just have a small lay of this favourite in the arkle purely as it doesnt get too high at the fences.
