Fallen Angel - I'm not convinced he is the most natural of jumpers, but he will be a very well handicapped horse who is used to big field, hurdles at least, festival races and with a trainer who wouldn't be adverse to plotting one up. Though he did have a similar prep last year and ended up being pulled up

Shutthefrontdoor for me in The Pertemps, looks a McManus plot to me. Could have stacks of improvement.

Hollow Tree is still to be let loose over 2.5m+. Has three entries and will arrive with a with a profile a bit like Son of Flicka last year.
I am convinced we have not seen the best yet and hope he ends up in the Martin Pipe Conditional. |

Barstool , also have been watching Hollow Tree since the Haydock run , but last run was appalling , course , ground , distance shud have suited unless its a real plot .

I think the last run can be ignored. It just had the entry to qualify for the Pertemps Final, but will be surprised if he goes for the 3m race at Cheltenham.

Problema Tic is one of my cliff horses. If it wins at the festival and I don't have a penny on there will be tears.

Can see a big run on the cards will it be the JLT or Fulke Walyn
|
|
By:
Presuming he gets in the JLT would have a much nicer weight (nine above him need to come out) but he's shorter priced for the Fulke
|
|
By:
i backed him for JLT pretty sure 9 will come out....Opening Batsman likely to be 1 of them..
|
|
By:
Well good luck, a 33/1 winner would certainly be a good first day.

Any final offerings ladies and gents?

Hisaabaat in the County. Hardly thrown in off 148 but D Weld said after Punchestown last year he would be a Champion hurdle horse for 2014 and the Triumph has worked out pretty well with the winner now rated 156, 3rd 152 and 4th 156. Ignore his runs this year as he clearly needs a big field/strong pace to be at his best. Handles all ground and loved the way he travelled and jumped at Chelters and Punchestown. Other big plus is that the blinkers will be back on (strangely left off last year). Weld hasnt had a winner at the festival for a long while but a trainer of his quality will surely but that right one day. Friday perhaps?

Spooky. Was wondering if Weld ever uses a claimer for his horses as i think a few pounds off his back would help when I look at the RP website to see that Michael Dolan (5) is booked to ride the very same horse! Dont know a great deal about him other than he rides for Richard Lee. Does anyone know if hes related to Paul Dolan as he obviously used to ride in Ireland. Just wondered why theyve chosen him. Also noticed that the Triumph 6th Sadlers Risk who was beaten 6 lengths by Hisaabaat is in the Coral Cup off 150 so all things considered hes on an acceptable mark, just looking for good runs from Dodging Bullets and Countrywide flame on Tuesday and think that 33-1 with Corals is good e/w material.

That should, of course, read Michael NOLAN, not Dolan. Doh!!

By:
dan breen in the county, put away after the ladbroke, conditional jockey will take another 10lbs off, 33-1 still available

25 Feb 13 14:39 Think I have just found the Martin Pipe winner (assuming Eedeymi doesn't run in it) and it's bound to be a massive gamble too - all will be revealed.  The horse I was referring to was Make Your Mark - he is running so time to lump on.  |
