    Needs to brush up his jumping and I'm not sure if he'll turn up at Cheltenham unless it's really soft. If he did go, he's clearly got a big engine but I'd say RSA rather than JLT so, in almost any circumstances it would be a wait for NRNB job.

    If Sutton Place is a proper chaser then Kemboy is clearly better over fences than hurdles. Only small but very athletic and we should have some fun with him.

      Good run from Kemboy was only a good jump away from getting very close there!

        PP have Al Boum Photo as the shortest Mullins horse for the race.... 16/1. 25/1 is available. Tempted to get this in to my book. At the moment only 3 figures for RSA but that doesn't look like its the plan now.

        Was going to hack up when falling last time out, with Tombstone well beaten and TOmbstone is alright...
        and on chase debut beat Tycoon Prince by 7L, who won over Christmas beating Bunk Off Early who is a decent horse over hurdles... I think he's slightly under the radar because of the silks, as stupid as that is... and if this ends up being the Ruby/Mullins horse then it won't be anywhere near 25/1...
        AS has just been mentioned in the yankee thread......Al Boum Photo cut with PP to 10/1 (left unchanged at 25/1 RSA) and not quoted for the Arkle....

        That seems significant to me. Highlighted when 25/1 was available a couple of days ago, but 20s with WH is best now but I doubt that'll last long.

        Added 2 pts already but will add a few multiples I think

            Dodged a few bullets recently, that one has hit me in the arm. Not a fatal wound though

            • Demi Sang a left field chance in this at 33/1? Winner of a chase over 18f in France. Although he may follow a similar route to Great Field and skip Cheltenham altogether.

                Willie mentioned the Arkle in his post race interview on Sunday.

                Must admit I was thinking of the 2 1/2m Novice Handicap on Tuesday when he won.

                  Cheers CCM, I can't see him having much of a chance against Footpad. Close Brothers could be a good shout, unless he gets absolutely shafted by the English handicapper. But you'd imagine theres no way they could justify anything above 145 even if he hacks up on his next start, unless its a Grade 1 that is. His next run should be very informative.

                  • With Death Duty out I wonder if there is a greater likelihood of Finians Oscar running here instead of the RSA? Whilst I don't think he would beat W.Court unless he somehow rectifies his jumping I still think this is the right race for him and he has been very poorly campaigned/managed by Tizzard this year.

                      I'm just hoping he'll turn up at the Festival so I can lay most if not all of my any race stake that I placed before seeing him jump a fence

                            I think so. Tizzard did say that Sizing Tennessee is an RSA horse too. Same connections. Elegant Escape looks made for the NH Chase over 4 miles so I think Finian's should turn up here....

                            I find it hard to be enthused about him, complete u-turn unfortunately but no standout at the moment. Willoughby Court isn't bulletproof - needs spring ground and an uncontested lead - my idea of the winner still though
