Un Des Sceaux

Layer!

Clearly has an engine but doesnt jump anywhere near good enough to win a champion hurdle

willie mullins gave a interview to A.T.R/ AT 5.15 and said that U.T.S.would have to find a stone to beat the Hurrican but no decesion will be made yet about him or annie power as to Cheltenham,

A lot of horses in this year`s C.Hurdle have made at least one jumping error in all their efforts this season Tony, this horse is a "freak" surely you can see that??? and all his racing has been on soft/heavy ground WOW!!!!!  a machine....... that`s the difference between watching a race once, but when you watching over and over for a living you see a the Bigger Picture. 3/1,3/1 9/2 6/1 we know all about those guys........... but when I spoke(wrote)about this fellow he was 25/1 mmmmmmmmm you see value before other people that`s the key..........
I will state again he will be unbeaten wherever he runs for a long time (and fingers crossed connections want the Gold this year rather than later, because who knows what happens around the corner)

Connections should insist he goes this year because that attritional style against top horses will mean he won't be around forever. For the great horse Denman was, he only won one Gold Cup. This is a strong year, exceptionally so even, but it could still be UDS's best chance.

Hi Neil, yeah there is a huge following for this horse, and are eager to run, I`ve a strong feeling he will run, because I`m sure Mullins knows The Fly has more on his plate this year, and UDS is a strong sub to have, and Annie will go for the stayers.

what is this nonsense about him not running.....I have never even heard that mentioned.....only by a few uninformed on here.....he guarantees pace in the race which suits everybody......so he is an absolute certainty to run.....
they have hardly aimed hima at the race all year.....and then decide not to run him .......
and keep him for what exactly......there is no other race for him......

Personally Tony if I was a trainer and I had 3 good horses that had a chance of winning the Champion hurdle I'd run the lot of them, 3 chances is so much better than one.
But it seems Mullins wants Hurricane to achieve immortality by winning 3 Champions but doesn't want to compromise that by running the other two?.

From an owners perspective, World Hurdle or Champion Hurdle?, no contest.
But if the owners insisted that both  Un De Seaux and Annie run in the Champion against the trainer and jockeys wishes I wonder would they be afforded the same level of preparation as the stable star?.

Of course from Rubys perspective he'd rather they were kept apart, he would be able to except defeat a bit better if one of the English challengers rather than Annie Power or Un De Seaux come sailing past the Fly on the run in.

Tony57......grab a hold of yerself man.....ya don't know what yer talking about......nobody is aying Annie Power is going to run in the champion.....its likely that she wont.....but its fellas like you are on about keeping un de sceaux for Aintree......
Nobody particularly Mullins cares about Aintree.....its an afterthought meeting.....and a total kip of a place.....track and city....full of minks is all the place is.....nobody even remembers what won races at Aintree....

only the biggest race of the year and the biggest crowd?and the biggest t.v audience,offcourse trainers don't care about it..just shows YOU know **** all, IGNORENT prick,who thinks he knows it all..you think by shouting and trying to bully that you can do what you want..how dare anyone say anything to paulie..go **** yourself

Tony, any chance of putting me up over the Aintree Festival?

I'm a vegetarian so you wouldn't have to worry about the Full English breakfast.

oz,
if you were stuck I wouldn't turn you away,but kavi, no matter what you say mate..paulie is just ignorant, no opinion matters only his..so don't bother defending Aintree..in paulie's world it does not matter...of course mate looking forward to meeting up.

lot of money on offer tho pa..and at the end of the day..thats what matters..and a few grade 1s,..but you could be right punchestown may be better for the horse..

I would say Mullins would love to win the Aintree Hurdle given how close he's gone in it recently. Hopefully UDS will be in the Champion Hurdle though.

Hi Tony, your not up to date with racing what race is for UDS at Aintree over 2m????, if the UDS does not run if will be Punch for sure. And you wud rather Lay him if he runs LOL.

the irish field is reporting that there is a doubt over uds going to the festival?

racing post now saying he wont go to the festival?

So be it if he doesn`t run that`s life, but he is a freak, but Aintree Tony come on ur better than that mate.

I'd say he'd piss up at Aintree Easy, it is often a lesser calibre of horse in that race. Can't see anything that is likely to run there that would get him off it. He'd whizz around there. I've a hunch The New One won't go there as he could still be one to mind for fences next season and the track like Kempton doesn't play to his strengths. The Tent doesn't want the trip, Our Conor and the Fly will wait for Punchestown. I think him or Annioe Power will go and whichever one goes will win.
