....at last night’s preview, both Kevin Blake and Jamie Codd keen on the chances of Mortal in this.
Though do we need to be careful at all about KB (who I like a lot, btw) being keen on JoB horses? I wasn't aware before but they made reference in the preview to KB being Joseph's race planner?
NB - I backed Mortal at 12s (NRNB BOG) before its last run so I'd actually be quite pleased if it turned up at a big price.

....he’s certainly part of JoBs team, which suggests Mortal will turn up here.
Henderson on Santini:
He was tender but the farriers have done a brilliant job with him. He came out very bouncy this morning and was moving beautifully. You have to treat these things with a lot of respect, but if he's the same tomorrow morning we'll be off and running.
Regarding my post about Santini I apologise, I’d heard for four different well informed people that he schooled poorly at Newbury. Hopefully he runs for people who backed him and we have a good race. I had no reason to think they were wrong
With the ground potentially soft on day one could they switch Ok Corral? I know the plan has been all along the 4 miler and JP is probably on at big prices but I’d be worried about him staying compared to ballyward. Can see Ballyward going off a pretty short priced jolly.

With the weather forecast now I doubt it will be genuinely soft like.

There’s next to no chance OK Corral switches from the long term JP project.
And an even slimmer chance that he runs but doesn’t go off favourite.
Thought it would be an interesting thought whether he would be rerouted on account of the ground and the question marks on him staying the trip even on better ground. Anyway I’d be running Ok Corral here and think he’d go very close based on his Warwick run

Based on his Warwick run he'd be no where near fav....
Ok Corral looked good, but the race hasn't worked out so I wouldn't have him as high as the others.
Secret Investor was last of 4 on his next start,
Rocky's Treasure was 5th of 7 beaten 31L
White Moon was beaten 27L by On The Blind Side
Topofthegame, Santini, La Bague Au Roi and/or Delta Work would all have beaten that Warwick field with as much ease.
I’m talking about the way he travelled and I thought before hand the track wouldn’t play to his strengths. I’m all over Delta work for this anyway just a thought on where I thought he should be running ok corral

Fair enough... 4 miler looks an easier race to me.
I see Topofthegame, Santini and Delta Work as horses that will make a big splash next season in the Gold Cup - compare that to Ballyward and Discorama?
I'd say Ok Corral is in the easier race so I can see why they're doing it.
