For such a big operation they should be getting at least a handful,But wouldn't really be too surprised if they drew a blank.
Last couple of festivals have been complete disasters for them.

They have 80 entries for the Cheltenham Festival and only two, Last Instalment and First Lieutenant are single figures in the betting. Last Instalment(7/1) is ground dependent and may not run and First Lieutenant is doubly entered (Ryanair 6/1 and Gold Cup 16/1) I hope they give FL his chance in the Gold Cup.

Astonishing decision to pull out First Lieutenant from the Gold Cup - could have won it given how mediocre a contest ( in terms of quality )it turned out to be.

The horse was sick.

By:
He was not sick , connections had decided to only run one horse in the race and when they tossed a coin and decided to let Last Instalment run , they pulled out First Lieutenant.

If that's true Stellar they are lunatics.
I heard he was sick and off feed,am still inclined to believe this as Mouse Morris wouldn't allow a coin toss. |
|
By:
Coin toss was nothing to do with Mouse who is the biggest victim in the whole piece. Coin toss was over whether to let Last Instalment run on the goodish ground. Connections let Russell talk them into the Ryanair last year ( jockeys interest not the horse's to do so ) and didn't let the trainer run his horse in the Gold Cup this year either !

of course that's not true.......the horse wasn't right obviously.......therefore he didn't run.....I can only assume stellar manipulator is taking the pisss out of the Wildman......

He'd have won. Finally would have gotten his ground. Just had to run his race.

So they decided to toss a coin to see which of their horses run even though LI is clearly a mud plodder and FL needs good ground?
