Really impressive debut there from Sceau Royal, a horse that I never actually took too over hurdles. Jumping really neat and quick.
Reminiscent of Top Notch last year.
The 2m chase on the Sunday of the Open meeting is his likely next target. Due to his disliking for winter ground he could be a horse whose price fluctuates or stays relatively big for quite a while but the 33/1 after that performance is definitely fair. Doesn't look like a horse who would step up in trip either

Acts around Cheltenham, graded hurdle winner, 2 mile is his trip and appears to have taken to fences. 33/1 is generous.
No doubt at all about the target which is about 1/3 of the battle
He'd have some to find on hurdles form with Petit Mouchoir, but PM is a fair enough fav and double the price does seem value to moi.

Followed a few in with Sceau Royal. Very solid start to chasing and the 33-1 is very fair considering you know this is the intended target and who knows how many will actually turn up.
Holding my finger above the button for River Wylde. Won't be long until I press it though!

I put a free bet on Movewiththetimes for this at 25/1 last night. Vague thinking that Nicholls is better with chasers and he wouldn't need a mass of improvement on his run behind Ballyandy to be a contender in this race, as it looks at the moment
