LONG RUN misses aintree

i want to know who writes Hendersons column " Long Run giving the right vibes for Aintree test"

He's fine in himself, there's nothing wrong with the horse, we just feel that he, like all the others, had a hard race at Cheltenham and while he came out of it in good form, we have decided against running at Aintree.

"He is only six, he's got his whole life ahead of him and we want to look after him. There's only 20 days between Cheltenham and Aintree this year and there's no getting away from the fact that the Gold Cup is as tough as it gets.

sound decision,imo - probably see him next in Betfair Bowl or whatever it's called at Haydock in the autumn

^^Agreed, wise decision.  Betfair Chase, King George, Gold Cup.  It's easy this game [;)]

think this horse will rule the 3m distance for next 3 years easily good money to be made on it

Bet everyone thought that Master Minded would still be unbeaten now after his first CC win...

step up diamond harry[;)]

Will be beaten by a 5yo in the King George[;)]

Zilzal,I had the same London buses thought about next years CGC,he as already a far superior jumper!!!!

God knows what price he will be off his handicap mark next week at Liverpool

been reading too much mario puzo imo

But it's generally a good system not backing the dead horses.
