Is Mr P W Mullins restricted to the number of rides/winners he can have? But i would have thought he'd riding all Willie Mullins 3rd/4th/5th string?
But some races Willie has multiple runners and he is not riding at all.....
Does this mean Ha D'or in the Arkle has no chance??
But Diverge could be worth a punt at 16/1 in the supreme??
.......
Rachel Blackmore is riding one for Ben Pauling in the Boodles... with Luca Morgan on a 20/1 rag.. Is the rag worth a punt or is RB on the right one?

Bad is possibly favourably weighted and the booking of Blackmore is no bad
 thing.Unusual jockey booking Potentially- Leading flat jockey Oisin Murphy is hoping to pick up a ride in the Champion Bumper at the Cheltenham Festival next week. The Kerry native recently returned to action after a serving a ban and has been among the winners since, with a 40/1 double at Wolverhampton on Monday followed up with victory on board Burdett Road (13/8f) at Lingfield on Tuesday. He told Sky Sports Racing: "My uncle (Jim Culloty) won it about 20 years ago on Total Enjoyment and it would be lovely to get the chance to ride in it one day." Murphy's best chance of securing a ride in the race could be Irish champion trainer Willie Mullins, who looks set to run a number of horses in the race. The Carlow handler is responsible for 14 of the 44 entries for the two-mile contest, which include the likes of It's For Me, Fun Fun Fun, Chapeau De Soleil, Fact To File and Western Diego. https://www.irishmirror.ie/sport/horse-racing/oisin-murphy-cheltenham-festival-bumper-29400948 Can't recall where I heard it but one talking head mentioned that Bob & Co in the Hunter's could be ridden by someone half decent-they didn't mention any name. We'll have to see if that transpires. |
