      I'm fairly sure he was back with NJH from Equiprep and in light work when he picked up this problem.

        Wonder what plans are for him when he is fit, any ideas?
        No mention of plans in the Owners Group magazine that came through this morning - just that he's not in training and they hope to have him back for the Spring.

          The initial plan was to go chasing, but this latest set-back means that he is likely to preserve novice status (over fences) until next season.

          IF he ends up at the Festival, it would be over hurdles, but I wouldn't even think about it until entered for anything
          He has 1 month box rest and 1 month walking exercise to do, before even returning to any form of training.

          • Ballyadam entered in a 2m 1f beginners chase at Punchestown next Tuesday. Cape Gentleman, Alfa Mix and Mt Leinster also entered, among others.

            • sounds like there's a decent chance latest exhibition could revert to hurdles according to Nolan when he was on racing TV.

              I'd be surprised and disappointed if they did that...felt he wasn't far off monkfish and would have pushed him close on his rsa.

              also don't think stayers hurdle is a show in

                • Alan King has mentioned that The Glancing Queen has been schooling over fences . Quote below taken from Attherace Stable Tours.

                  "She schooled over fences on Thursday and I am looking forward to sending her chasing. There is a possibility she will start in the Mares’ Chase at Bangor in few weeks’ time".

                  • I know there was a few folk on here wondering which path Monmiral was taking this season - confirmed to be hurdling

                    Nicholl's 888 stable tour - 'Monmiral looks like being a chaser in time but will stay hurdling this year - will start off his campaign in the Fighting Fifth'

                        Joseph said likely to have 1 more run in a Mares Chase if they can find one and then back to Cheltenham in March
