Min is in great order and has come back much stronger than he has ever been," Mullins said. "He will start off in autumn at two-mile senior chasing

Am I the only one reading that as potentially Min starting off at 2 miles but could go up in trip as the season progresses?

I read that as thats the division he'll be starting off in, as opposed to hurdling. They'll probably try Douvan in the King George and end up winning the Ryanair with Douvan

More updates from Mullins in the Irish Independent tomorrow, including updates on Min and Killultagh Vic .
I'm led to believe KV has changed trainers though?

Thanks Jono. Looks like a slowly but surely approach with KV. Probably best that way.
Doesn't look overly promising though..

[jono]

Yeah far from a promising update. Hard to say for sure but you have to look back to that last run and think things may have been different if Ruby hadn't of got Killultagh Vic back up to win. Such a shame. He was the first horse by Old Vic to win a grade 1 over hurdles too.

Does anyone know the plan for Captain Forez this season? I had all but assumed chasing but going on Twitter it would seem another year over hurdles awaits. Very surprising if true Anyone read quotes from connections to back it up?

That is such a shame. Absolutely gutted.

[ryanh97]

I thought he was gonna be a huge star. Such a shame

[Istabraq]

Yep, massive shame and yet another reminder how fragile these horses are.
I haven't seen the details but fatal another off course injury confirming these animals can easily come to grief at home and away from the competitive arena...

[Hurricane fly]

Just done a very small play e/w patent on skybet

Artic fire 33/1 - CH
Coneygree 16/1 - goldcup
Penhill 16/1 - stayers

Artic fire is my champion hurdle horse until Faugheen is confirmed racing or not racing

I just read this and agree , it's such a shame , like you said, ryan , was looking to be a big star.

Few snippets from Colin Tizzards Open day today...

Thistlecrack - Looks like a 'mare in foal' according to Colin Tizzard. Racecourse gallop then King George
Native River - had a knock at Cheltenham and will be out at Christmas. Possibly looking at National ultimately
Cue Card - will follow same route as last year. No reason to believe he isn't still capable of winning at least one of those
Fox Norton - 2 mile route likely, unless something happens to Sizing John
Finian's Oscar - Chasing likely and still believe he could be the best they've had
Pingshou - hoping he is going to be a Champion Hurdle horse. Likely to run in all trials
Elegant Escape - Chasing likely and hoping he can continue the promise of his wary novice hurdles

[Kevloaf]

If pingshou is a CH horse ill get the Jenkins flags in flight
