    Interesting, both Torygraph and Streets of Doyen declared for the 3M novice hurdle. No Pertemps for either should they run, you would imagine..
    I can't see that either are declared?

    Ragnar Lodbrok is for Gordon though. Which is a bit annoying as I definitely see him as a Martin Pipe type, however he is only rated 128 so he'd need to go up a fair bit anyway to get in, so hopefully he goes well, and then drops back in trip for the festival.

      • Yes I saw TORYGRAPH wasnt running.

        Thats probably the right approach as he only ran under three weeks ago over 3 miles on soft/heavy ground - so a longer break makes sense to get the best out of the horse at Cheltenham.

        He is entered in the Bartlett, and his Irish rating (137) and UK rating (141) allows him an entry in the Martin Pipe.

        We will know about the Pertemps if he is entered in the last Irish qualifier (Weds 24th) later this week, or not.

          Ya sorry, thought the link posted was declarations, took my tracker a while to update with the final decs. We're all well invested into Torygraph because of you SW, it's trying to narrow down his targets thats the problem. Have him for both the AB and MP.

          • ....Torygraph 15-1 (with boost) in Hills a/r market.

            • Gordon Elliot has 3 of the First 5 in the betting for the AB, Fakiera, Farouk D'alene and Torygraph. I think it is worth watching the entries tomorrow for next Wednesdays Pertemps qualifier to see if any are being aimed there Instead and act accordingly!

                Hopefully Torygraph for the Pertemps qualifier

                  I’m sure he’ll want as many options open as possible for his horses but the markets suggest Column of Fire will be entered up so that may impact how many others get entered...

                    Let's hope so Ista. Has there been some market moves for CoF I haven't seen?

                      No moves but he remains prominent in the market with all firms so you have to assume they believe he’ll be entered...

                        I wouldn't go near CoF after his last race

                        • Interesting long shot put up on the "on the hunt" podcast...

                          Oscar Elite - still available at 80-1

                          Tizzard stable coming back to form and has done well in this race and with stayers more generally

                          Horse has followed similar route to other top staying hurdlers who came to this race, incl Kilbricken Storm.....and supposed to be def going for

                          Might be a decent ew shout

                              ....visually impressive in a couple of wins, only 25-1 with NRNB firms.

                                I just listened to that (used to listen to that podcast a lot when I had to drive every day).... the case wasn't water tight but at 80/1, what more can you hope for.
