I know the Irish staying novices look special this year but Cape Tribulation should certainly not be underestimated.

from the guardian today Also not to be forgotten is On Raglan Road, the only horse to have ever finished in front of Dunguib on a racecourse when beating him in a bumper at Punchestown in 2008, but off the course since falling at Aintree last April. "He had a nasty spill there and he's needed time, but he's working nicely again and he's still got the entry in the Coral Cup. He could be another who goes for a gallop this weekend to see where we stand, but he's always had plenty of talent." |

Johnson has a number of entries in some of the lesser races at the Festival but has yet to finalise plans.
One of his more intriguing entries is On Raglan Road, who is the only horse to beat Dunguib having lowered his colours in a Punchestown bumper before joining Johnson at the start of last season. On Raglan Road has been sidelined by injury since taking a heavy fall at Aintree last April and Johnson is in no rush to decide on his target. "He's in really good form at the moment but we'll just see how he goes," said Johnson. "He's entered in the Coral Cup but I haven't decided whether to run him or whether just to give him the season off, but I'm very happy with him. "I've not sorted out the Cheltenham runners yet, but Stormy Weather could go for the Fred Winter, while Abbeybraney and Presenting Forever could run in the four-miler (National Hunt Chase)." |
