SNA has the drift begun

yep... big drift coming up

because of time form saying he's too short  !!

jonny murt riding midas?

NR nap

hardly much of a drift

he's out to 9/4.


a truly MASSIVE drift.

lol damn I wanted to back 5/2 as well.

What did you expect him to shorten further?

massive alright. :) LOL..

some things up. What have people heard?

£170 at 2/1 and you think something is up.

gets beaten by one of his stablemates.

went out to 3.45 to money at two o clock today

Was 3.45 on de lay side

you could have had two large at 3,45 at two o clock yesterday

Probably laid by a timeform follower after they said he was too short.

still a lousy price for what could prove to be a high profile dodgepot.

Drift back on.

going the other way with the firms

Just don't understand those firms talking up SNA's chances.Can't have him if there is no "soft" in going description and round Epsom.Also stats-wise---a big fat zero next to his name.

someone s trying to get their two large lunch money out of sna at 3.5 again today

Jan Vermeer price is collapsing.  From 6 to 3.  Paddy Power offering 5/1 for the max stake of £42!

JOHNNY MURTAGH is to delay a decision on his Investec Derby mount after St Nicholas Abbey, favourite for the Epsom Classic, failed to sparkle on the Ballydoyle gallops on Friday morning.

Speaking at 12.45pm on Friday, trainer Aidan O'Brien said: "Johnny rode St Nicholas Abbey this morning and felt that the colt might not have shown the same sparkle as he did when he rode him on Tuesday morning.

"Consequently, he won't be making up his mind about what he will ride in the Derby until the middle of next week."

O'Brien confirmed that running plans for Jan Vermeer and Cape Blanco, both of whom hold entries in the Epsom Classic and the Prix du Jockey Club, will not be made until the middle of next week.

Jan Vermeer currently clear favourite on here!

Big Mac would be going crazy now "Female on this exchanges" system overload..This is just Ballydoyle mind games..

LOL not showing the same sparkle might mean he is still better than the rest but having a not such an exceptional day read between the lines

it will be very poor pr the way obrien has been bigging the horse up understand listen understand and just a very poor show

Come next tuesday it will be " St Nic sparkles in workout" and it will be backed ryt back into 9/4 again..

Possibly, moono.  The alternative course of events is:

Friday - "Jonny's delayed a decision 'cos he didn't feel St Nicholas Abbey was quite right in his work on Friday morning"

Saturday - "We're going to run a few tests on St Nicholas Abbey just to make sure our champion's ok"

Sunday - "Our team our going over the tests results now"

Monday - "St Nicholas Abbey has not been confirmed for the Derby.  The test results have come back and we don't feel he's ready for Epsom right now.  We're looking at the Nunthorpe, Grand Prix de Paris or Queens' Vase next".

Monday week - "St Nicholas Abbey has been retired..."

out to 7/2 wiv SB.

Johnny Murtagh rode St Nicholas Abbey this morning and thought he might not have shown the same sparkle that he showed last Tuesday morning...

It's gobbledygook. "Johhny thought maybe...". Didn't he have 8 gears last Tuesday? Has he now only got 7?

Volunteered information in O'Brienese that translate as "we're bailing on the horse".

"Our team our going over the tests results now"
Dear me, what is the education system coming too, poor grammar from the headmaster!

5.2 on hear now.

There's a difference between bad grammar and hurried typing, tm!

Anyway, I'm still waiting for you to lay off your Rewilding bet to me?

becoming backable

JV - JM Epsom
Midas - SH Epsom
CB - France

SNA - Non runner

is how I'm reading it..

We are reading the same script, Stake.

i'm just reading it as a comfortable victory for Rewilding.

Comfortable, TD, COMFORTABLE!

i cant hekp but feel if i dont have  a piece of the 9to2 on here i will regret for ever such a long time so thats what im going to do
i reckon he will go off a 5to2 poke and i reckon with murtagh on board he wins

if murtagh doesnt ride i would like colm to get the gig

If Murtagh doesnt ride, there must be a big chance de hoss doesnt run imo

you would think the horse had broken down the way it has drifted .when all that has happened according to aiden is
it done a lacklusre gallop.

will be retired and off to stud with his rep intact soon IMO... another Holy Roman Emperor.
