If you are "aware" why place such a mug bet? Won't be winning and probably 5th or 6th but no closer. Too dodgy a bet frico.

Will that fiver become £50-£200 nearer the off Rico or does the possibility of an accident mean this is your bet.Grin

Well deduced frico. 5th or 6th WITH NO MISHAPS. Nature of the race makes it a mug bet at 8-11 odd. Hope you understand.

Mr hope street is a 10 star nap the mark is very very low at 130 his form from Haydock is different class. I recon he has a good 10lb in hand.Skelton has laid him out for this for certain

Honesty policy will deffinatly be the best of these next year and the flat track will suit his running style. He should just about win.

Having 300 on Mr Hope Street and 150 on Honesty Policy plus a 50 double.

Nice winner @ sp 4/1

Does anyone have information as to why I Am Maximus moved to Willie Mullins' yard from Nick Henderson?
I'd previously assumed it was due to McManus buying him but that's not the case as his first run for
him was when he won the Irish National.

I can't recall hearing of a fall-out with the owners.
Report Rico-Dangleflaps April 12, 2026 9:30 PM BST
I Am Maximus moved from Nicky Henderson's yard in England to Willie Mullins' yard in Ireland in November 2022 primarily due to a change in ownership and a strategic decision by the new owner to base the horse in Ireland.
Report Herbie-53 April 13, 2026 6:15 PM BST
Do you mean by 'new owner' JP McManus?

As I'd mentioned...he was with Mullins in his first 4 chases before McManus bought him and won the Irish National.

He was previously owned by Claudio Michael Grech but could that have been in a partnership?

Is that previous owner Irish? Doesn't sound like it as he has an Italian christian name.

I can't find any information as to why he left Henderson...and as there's no mention of joint owners, I'm puzzled
by this as things don't add up - I can't help but wonder about a possible fall-out between the owner & trainer.
