On first impression, Robinson Collonges looks like it should go well. Ran a decent race race to be 3rd in the grade 3 hcp hurdle @ Chepstow recently. He looked a novice chaser going places last Season before a fall in the novice chase vs Wishful Thinking. These fixed brush hurdles should hopefully bring about some improvement and if Nicholls runs King of the Night of top weight RC should get in around the 10 stone mark.
Will be interesting to see how the race is priced up.

yes RC is another that didnt live up to expectations! cantering all over wishful thinking!! think the fixed brush are right up his street as the larger obstacles seem to be the problem!!
still rather king of the night on good ground, ive followed the horse from his bumper!

No guarantee KOTN runs here. He is also in the Ascot Hurdle on Saturday too, always a chance he could go for that, though Nicholls has Celestial Halo entered there.
It depends if Nicholls thinks he is up to taking on Overturn and Oscar Whisky. In that Ascot race he would be carrying 11st whereas @ Haydock he will have to carry 11-12 giving lumps of weight away to some potentially progressive lightly raced types.
Anyone 2nd guess Mr Nicholls

If he runs I will deffo have a few sheckles on ew, could out class these if back near his best.
Sentry Duty is starting to look well hcpd of 149Has run 2 ok races on the flat not beaten far.If he runs I will deffo have a few sheckles on ew, could out class these if back near his best.
very tricky race so wont be betting in it. Gun to head would back Dynaste for Pipey who has the right blend of exposure and experience for a race like this.
Robinson Collonges is the fly in the oitment because he is very well handicapped based on his Chase form but I dont like the fact he has had just two hurdle starts in the UK.
gl all.

Agree JOCI,think that Cape Tribulation has a massive chance at a great price,Jefferson has decent record in this race and this lad has a little bit of class about him,maybe his rating is a little high but has optimum conditions today and has an excellent record fresh,a real sporting bet at what they used to call a working mans price.

Was bl00dy impressive,did not go in large-unfortunately,but a nice win all the same.
Not sure what they do with him,but they have to aim pretty high i think. Possibly another Grand Crus??
