Wind Operation Horses at Cheltenham

I haven't looked yet so forgive my ignorance in advance but has anything been said about the Irish wind ops?

That sounds a nice bit of training.
Delay having a wind operation on a horse until it's nicely handicapped, then put it right and take a decent race or two.
How long has this been going on?

At last nights Betfair/RP preview Gordon Elliott said hed had to supply the information on wind ops (and gelding I think) for the first time in his training career. The relevant info should now appear for Irish horses in the Cheltenham form.

I wonder if the £290 fine will put anyone off NOT declaring

In instances when surgery is notified after declarations have been made but before the day of race, a first offence would trigger a £290 fine. Second and third offences would equate to £580 and £1,160 fines, while a fourth offence would lead to referral to BHA head office.

For all other offences, there will be a first fine of £650, a second fine of £1,300 and then referral from the third offence onwards.

I believe the Irish do as well. Elliott mentioned that Dortmund Park has had a wind op since his last run too.

missed approach but probably going for midlands national

Finians Oscar is another - old armadillo seems to like the wind op.

Royal Vacation looks like the only one on Wednesday.  Although Vision Des Flos won last time out following wind surgery too.

There doesn't seem to be many declared does there
