I think he will definately be favourite with the sponsors when they first price the race up.
Which way his price goes after that will depend on how the weights are framed, off 158 he will surely be somewhere close to top weight.

Will probably go off 2/1 favourite. Might take a few out of the handicap
wouldnt think the husstle and bustle of a Paddy Power would suit his jumping style.
Good poing GI MAC.
Its not an easy race to win even one mistake by the class horse in the field will probably be one to many.

Correct meat unfortunately he made it from another meeting,was there spoilt good day.
I think he'd really struggle in this giving weight against seasoned handicappers, particularly with his usual jockey. With 20 runners and a couple of well weighted horses rated around the 135-145 mark, he could easily start at 3 or 4-1, and i could see a few bookies certainly trying to get him.
But all credit to Nicky Henderson for taking this bold route.

The weights could end up like this
Poquelin 11 12
Long Run 11 06 S Waley Cohen (5)
interesting....

Early days yet, but can see this being a very hot race this year.
Any chance we could see Crack Away Jack in this?

Nicholls will presumably run one of his novices that got injured last season
Not too long now till the proper Horse Racing starts again!
Nicholls i presume will have multiple entries.

I couldn't back this horse for a race liks this tbh .. would leave me feeling distinctly nauseated throughout the race
Have the riding arrangements been confirmed for this year?
anybody backing this at the moment at 6/1 is crazy.
All you need to do is remember 2 years ago with Jack The Giant.
Nicky - yeah 100% he goes for the paddy power.
2 days before hes pulled out!!

Now 4/1 with the sponsors who have priced a few horses up
Watch the BYRNE GROUP (I had 33's GE that day WOW) but look anyway, THE CATT makes about half a billion commentary errors (GE out the back etc.) but this aside the horse ran that race very very comfortably within himself. To cap it all Lydia announces that the winner was Chapoturgeon btw.
I want to have a lump on him but seems to obvious. Long Run is a beast but I can't have him with his lack of C&D record tbf. Anyone heard anything from PIPE YARD about this target for Great Endeavour ?

Ive just read David Pipes interview in this years Racing Post guide to the jumps.
He will be entered for the PP & The Hennessy.

Do we think his Byrne Group form ranks higher than the Jewson form ?
Time WAS quicker over C&D but he was off a lower mark than copper bleu ...
If they whacked HEY BIG SPENDER into this I'd be all over him - apparently goes over longer though ...

csnty jump well enuff . is a flat track bully. im more than happy to save every penny ive got to lay him on the day . big fields arent what this horse wants
Paddy are on a big fishing trip with these prices agreed
Long Run and Cheltenham race course is never going to be a happy marriage, ever, ever, ever, ever imo. Unless they flatten the place and introduce some Ludlow/Kempton style 'fences' that he can walk his way through without losing any momentum.
^ Agree. I have no doubt he will be top class, but not at cheltenham. I would never back him there, especially not in a competitive handicap like the PP.
Long Run should be 3-1 just to get round. If he does get round he'll have a good chance, but he's hardly chucked in. It normally takes a horse to run at least 10lb above his rating so if you fancy him for this back him for the Ryanair at a bigger price.
Personally I think the horse will be a sad case of unfulfilled promise. He seems not to get home over a stiff 3m, his jumping is very iffy, and he will be ridden by an amateur all year, when he's just the sort of horse that desperately needs a top class pro.
