Ruby on RTV today said straight to Cheltenham or maybe go gowran first.
If he’s ready to run now, should just stick him in a beginners chase and then go for the Arkle IMO after yesterday’s showing. Even if he gets beat, there’s fairyhouse & punchestown when he’ll be more experienced. What’s the point in chasing honeysuckle home at Cheltenham & punchestown. And hardly ideal going novice chasing at 9 years old next season.
Never happen of course, but really shouldn’t be the craziest thing, Arkle looks weak
Think they ended up taking him out of it didn't they.
I am a maaaassive Appreciate It fan, but really want to see him in the Red Mills rather than turn up first time out and try and beat Honeysuckle. I know Willie is a genius and won with horses FTO before... but I'd rather see AI has at least retained his ability!

Yeah will never happen unfortunately, not willies style!
and yeah, I agree, going to be a huge ask whatever but even more so first time up
Honeysuckle - Saint Roi would be my dream result today.
I do think Saint Roi is overpriced today and in the Champion Hurdle market, and have made no secret of the latter on here. I think he can overturn the form with Zanahiyr provided he has come on for that run on his seasonal debut.
Honeysuckle is just phenomenal, like really, she's incredible.
It wasn't to be for Saint Roi, I'm going to hang on to the hope that a return to Cheltenham will bring out a level of required improvement to maybe pick up a place. FWIW he did finish closer to Zanahiyr, who has had the benefit of more runs this season, than the last time they met, but then again, so did Echoes In Rain, so I'm not sure that's saying much, about any of them.

THe Saint Roi bubble burst over 12 months ago, give it up brother
Echoes In Rain isn't a massive shock I suppose. Interesting to see if she's in the Mares Hurdle?
Wouldn't have guessed Sharjah at all. Must have had a setback. Looks like it's Appreciate It v Honeysuckle now...
Nine NH races at 2m, very unlike Mullins to reduce her targets this far out and commit, if that's what he's done, to a race half a mile further than she's ever been.
Sharjah is a shock and I agree muct have had a setback.
Zanihiyr back into 6/1 on Hills without Honeysuckle market, still looks very fair to me...

Still the County option I suppose. It is very un-Willie like though I agree.
Zanahiyr without Honeysuckle was the first thing I looked at too
Yes, that's true.
Though he seems to have so many 2m horses, he'll have a few that won't go in the Supreme so I assume their only target will be the County...
