Brilliant idea to let the massives get electronically 'Up close & personal' to a top trainer so near Chelt. Good idea if all other trainers could give us punters a greater insght to their Chelt plans. PN must of cleared up so many peoples queries & at least steered some people in the right direction. It amazes me every year why we have to go through the 'annual guessing game' of where the beasts will/wont run. Why cant the top boys just say e.g Grand Crus 1st target RSA, 2nd target Gold cup etc etc. (imo) some trainers have scant regard for punters - Although any trainer will state they train for the owners & not punters. Well donr BF & PN for tonight.

Agree with the above - he has changed things dramatically for the better. The jumps boys IMO are always more open, but PFN goes out of his way.

I also agree. Very helpful and interesting comments from PFN tonight.

Without wanting to get too sectarian, I look forward to Sir Michael Stoute undertaking a similar venture in mid summer!

Yeh right ^^. To be fair it is great Paul comes out & talks about his horses and their targets it makes things easier. I can see why some trainers like to keep things to themselves though. They have owners who want things to be kept on the hush and some trainers don't want to be bothered all the time about their horses. They don't like the limelight. Paul must get fed up with it after a while so fair play to him for being putting up with it. The same for his owners. Personally I would be an owner who wouldn't want my horse talked about too much.
