Does anybody know the current situation regarding Weird Al.  I know he was injured but how badly and can we expect him back this season all guns blazing?  What was the injury? Thanks.

Very good jumper, definitely a prize to be had with him

I would agree with that ben but not sure that hes that good yet. If he was mine I would go for the Hennessy first, chuck him straight in and see how he goes depending on the result will tell them how to plan his season.

Yeah definitely, assuming he's ready in time, sure we'll see some news in the coming month

Has a mark of 152.

If Denman goes for it, he has a lovely weight in the Hennessy.
Report abbott September 9, 2010 4:42 PM BST
Dont think Denman does. That said Ive got the winner of the Hennessey anyway ;)

Nicholls said he might send Neptune there, he'd be off 170 probably so still nice weights to be had
Report abbott September 9, 2010 4:49 PM BST
You think he will still be of 170? Id think with 20 odd months of he might drop him a bit?
Report ben10 September 9, 2010 5:00 PM BST
Assumed he had been slightly, won't drop him too much surely

was only a minor injury that kept him out of the RSA, they think so highly of him that they gave it a miss. Think he will be back for the paddy power and he's definitely being aimed at the Gold Cup. Whether he's quite good enough to beat IC, it remains to be seen.

Loves Cheltenham, thinkt hey may hoover up the Paddy Power Gold cup rather than take the Hennessey, Give him a run at Wetherby again and into Cheltenham, depending on how well he is he may run in the King George.

Horse is definately fine, just had a slight tendon injury
