I wonder if people are taking the view that Mullins will surely get on the board at some point

Very interesting day ahead, can't wait to see it unfold

I think it's because the race looks quite weak tbh, I wouldn't be backing Yorkhill but it beat Yanworth (over 2m 5f) at last year's festival and that is by far the best performance any of these have done.

Quite a bit money across the board this morning for Thomas Crapper 4.10

The first race of the day is interesting already, Yorkhill quite weak early on

Any thoughts on why Yorkhill has drifted so much? My personal feeling is that it will come back in, but am a little worried by how much movement there has been

Mullins hasn't had a winner yet over the festival, that's the only reason I can think of

Some bookies have been offering 2/1 this morning so it could be people backing their then hedging off here. Or it could be Mullins seems to be off form this year, or a combination of both

Yep, that is all I could think of. Just seems like a big move for that reason alone. I have taken some at 2.72, hoping to lay around 2.6

Yorkhill's price is still holding up on the place markets though

Luckily got it matched at 2.6 before it drifted again. Good luck everyone!
