Ran a cracker in the Becher for such an inexperienced horse. He looks highly progressive and was staying on all the way from the last. The 2015 national might come to quick for him but he looks madeCant believe this horse wasn't even entered especially after such a promising run in the Becherhis mark will probably go up even further and at 9 he may not get a better chance.he then turns out in a novice hurdle today, just a thing ideally to protehttps://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30403033/mendip-express?post_id=543441505#543441505Cant believe this horse wasn't even entered especially after such a promising run in the Becherhis mark will probably go up even further and at 9 he may not get a better chance.he then turns out in a novice hurdle today, just a thing ideally to proteFri, 06 Feb 2015 06:24:55 -0600I think the Festival Hcp on the Tuesday was mentioned.https://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30403033/mendip-express?post_id=543390849#543390849I think the Festival Hcp on the Tuesday was mentioned.Mon, 02 Feb 2015 14:02:07 -0600Thanks for the update mate. is it likely to be aimed for cheltenham instead? such a shamed that he wont take his chance at Aintree after such a promising run in the Becher.https://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30403033/mendip-express?post_id=543390181#543390181Thanks for the update mate. is it likely to be aimed for cheltenham instead? such a shamed that he wont take his chance at Aintree after such a promising run in the Becher.Mon, 02 Feb 2015 13:12:44 -0600Harry Fry states that Mendip Express will NOT run in this years National.https://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30403033/mendip-express?post_id=543383743#543383743Harry Fry states that Mendip Express will NOT run in this years National.Mon, 02 Feb 2015 03:49:45 -0600Tbh, the interview I read where he said he wouldn't stay more than 3 miles was before the Beecher and at the start of the season. Maybe he's changed his mind after the Beecher and will give the National a crack.https://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30403033/mendip-express?post_id=543190205#543190205Tbh, the interview I read where he said he wouldn't stay more than 3 miles was before the Beecher and at the start of the season.

I think on better ground he will be a force to reckoned with for the national should he go there.https://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30403033/mendip-express?post_id=543010599#543010599I can't see how Harry Fry thinks he's a non stayer, he was staying on from the last on bottomless ground at Aintree in the becher.

To be honest I did find that a strange thing to say at the time because he never seemed like a horse that was a non-stayhttps://community.betfair.com/aintree2011/go/thread/view/121613/30403033/mendip-express?post_id=542896721#542896721He strikes you as a national horse but I'm sure Harry Fry has said previously that 3 miles is the furthest the horse wants to go.
