Agreed, unless he ploughs a fence like he did LTO, in which case it will be nighty nighty. First and foremost, considering they are novices, jumping is the key…because they won’t have much experience of recovering from mistakes. Always thought he was an arkle horse but that mistake has spooked me.

If he jumps he wins though, coz as you said, won’t be passed!

A single mistake in the Arkle and he’s goosed. I think they’re better putting him over further.

I know that, Al Ferof finished a distant third because of it 2 years ago.

This is the race for him either way. He’ll power along and if he’s ahead it takes a mistake to beat him.

He didn’t seem to like having Defy Logic up alongside him in Leopardstown. If CF goes for Arkle and something takes him on up front then I don’t think he’ll be winning.

Dodging Bullets is the best jumper op a fence I have seen in novice ranks this year.

19606

Un De Sceaux entered up in Sandown on Saturday

19607

Hopefully Jeremy Scott leaves Melodic Rendezvous in the race so we get a proper idea of where both are at.

19608

Defy Logic out for the rest of the season :frowning:

19609

Pandorama and Quel Espirit :smiley: entered for the Grand National

19610

It is a wonder they did not try the world hurdle as well

19611

Pandorama was 2nd in an Open somewhere at the weekend.

19612

Quantitativeasing in the same race I think

19613

Sandown Hurdles off tomorrow so we won’t see Un Des Sceaux or Melodic Rendezvous

19614

WPM has ensured neither AP or UDS will line up in CH because of the respective campaigns chosen, I cant wait until the jump the last at che, ruby produces takes the fly upsides our Conor and TNO goes wide and past both

Venetia Williams on fire

19618

LnB won in Fairyhouse again. Cheltenham entry perhaps?

19619

I thought they’d mind his mark for a national tilt

19620

Yea finished like a train though there was a nasty fall to his closest competitor.

Relax won aswell, Williams is indeed on fire. Couple of impressive looking bumper horses in fairyhouse.
