beat trees quite impressively.. not done enough for me to back it

is he this years Captain Chris avoids chelters and goes arkle hunting

I think he is off 137 - i'd be thinking the trainer will be looking at all the big handicap hurdles.

nice win!

I think the plan is (was?) to send him chasing, but over 3 m.

Impressed today. Likeable performance. Be interesting to see where he goes next. Is he def going chasing?

said he was going chasing in the stable tour and that he could be anything. Think the Arkle was mentioned but can't remember.

Apparently Daryl Jacob thinks he is very promsing as a chaser - maybe he's schooled him? I was wrong to say they plan to send him over 3 m - I can't find any comment on that (I probably just inferred it from his 2 m 6f run yesterday).

beat a decent horse in cantlow going away... looked to be a 150+ run... huge horse, stamina in reserves and finished fast. looks to have HUGE potential.

I believe he is now staying hurdling. Probably due to the strength in the novice chasing divisions this season.

Yep Mr P Nichols answered me on twitter yday

Been raised to 155 for his Sandown victory. 18lbs is a massive rise and will be diffcult to defy. However he is very lightly raced and PN won't persist with the hurdle route if he doesn't believe the horse can deal with it.

Interesting entry on Sunday.

Yes - should give a measure of where he stands as a hurdler and a big clue to his future.
