I don't like this horse, have never bet it and probably never will but if I was on this and read yesterday he was running and next day he isn't "110%" whatever that is I'd be fuming.
The Pipes are turning this horse into a donkey and turning it into a pantomime.

They do seem to have talked him up a lot,especially last season,and loads joined the bandwagon,unfortunately for them.
They do seem to have made a complete hash of training him,or perhaps he was never as good as they made him out to be?

He was never as good as people thought and is a horse that cannot take too much racing. imo
Rounds off a total mess of a season for the horse, I've got an annoying habit of looking betweens the lines and probably finding stuff that isn't there usually,
So here goes for this one, pipe said this morning that the initial plan that the owners wanted was for him to miss the festival, he then worked well the other day and by the sounds of it they were persuaded to change their mind, now I reckon the owners have had a rethink, but rather than come out and say that and look like you've really put people away, they've said that he isn't 110%, listening to pipe you definitely get the impression that the horse is fine, he said he worked fine since and the scope is ok really!!! he doesn't want to say the horse is sick if he's not so he's trying hard to get across that they're just looking after the horse.
The real irony here is that we know from experience that they keep their cards right close to their chest and only let info out at the last minute, which race is dynaste going for, but here , when they could have waited for a few more days which you would think is prudent considering they haven't got a bloody clue what on earth has been up with the horse all season and who knows what may transpire with him from one day to the next, they instead dive in and officially commit the horse to a race only to change their minds the next day.
