Mullins said: "Paul was particularly happy with Quel Esprit. The National Hunt Chase is a big option for him now, that's most likely where he'll run."
Hendo said Fed winter for AML after her last win, then goes for Triumph. Bobs Worth going for Neptune, or now possibly AB. Nicholls says all season 1833 and Royal charm not going to Chelts, now is talking him up. [smiley:crazy] |

Hendo didn't use his brains. He thought she'd go up 5-6 lbs
 I still think she should go for FW despite being raised 18lb's as she'd likely to carry 11st5lb...have you backed AML in the FW as well? |

CV - i think you have most of the races for Mullins squad spot on in your above post. Common sense really.

I have only backed AML in the Fred Winter but I did that without any comment from Hendo I saw she was on 119 and was 14/1 for the race, it was a calculated decision that she'd get a penalty and sneak in off near bottom weight. Hendo fcuked it up, but what can ya do.
Nicholls saing 1833 and Royal Charm aren't going to Cheltenham and both line up. Please make the excuses for him. Surely if mullins is evil for changing his mind, Nicholls is similarly evil for changing his mind too. |

Except he backed Mikael D'Haguenet for the Arkle originally and he doesnt go there.

Same ere, got her in doubles with FNS @ 20/1 and treble with Bensalem at 14/1 as well
 |

By:
Unlucky, that would have been an excellent treble. But it was the right idea backing her at 14/1 when she was only on 119. You can't win them all.

The highly-rated Day Of A Lifetime, which has the choice of two engagements at the Festival, will take his chance in the Supreme Novices Hurdle for Willie Mullins.
The son of King's Theatre was billed as the main Mullins Champion Bumper hope last season, and is rated as a 20/1 shot for the Festival opener. If you go back to his first ever run, he beat Jessica Harrington's Oscars Well at Fairyhouse. That horse has, of course, gone on to dual Grade One success over hurdles and is the favourite for the Neptune Hurdle on Wednesday |

Didn't he say that was going for the Neptune only the other day ?

By:
Have you got a link to that story Brooks?
He said he was "leaning towards running him in the Neptune" in the weekender |

Well here we are a week to go.I still dont even know if Lios a Choil is going,never mind what race.It does not look good using the betting as a ghide for either.It may be he thinks it is just not good enough.
As far as Day of a Lifetime goes,there is much more informed and better judges on willie,than me that are still confused. As far as Nicky goes.He has said he is considering a run in the Imperial Cup for Aegean Dawn.If it goes,then i would think the Coral,would not be on the agenda. |

Just back him nrnb in the race you fancy him for, you can't lose money as it's nrnb so what on earth are you complaining about?
|

By:
The bookies in my town are not nrmb,unless it is for the big four races.I dont think i was really complaining.Was i CVB?The thread is not to have a go at willie,although some have.It only asks a question.As i said above it is a bit of fun.
