    Threeunderthrufive is making his seasonal debut at Chepstow tomorrow. His trainer Paul Nicholls is getting more and festival averse by the year but his owners, The McNeils, do like runners at Cheltenham and had Escaia Ten last year that flirted with the Ultima and BAN but ended up in the NHC. He’s currently 20/1 for the NHC but also 22/1 (with a boost) in the TWAR market. He was very progressive over staying hurdles last season and ran well in the AB. Nicholls keeps referencing his strong stamina and his good schooling over fences so whilst I reckon he will be a NHC candidate the TWAR option is better value

      I'm sure he pretty much said he was sketchy at his fences?

      Apologies if I've mistaken this horse for another btw

        This was Nicholls quote on ATR about him….
        ‘He has been jumping well at home over our schooling fences, and I’m looking forward to this race because I’ve always felt he would make a chaser.’

        We’ll out tomorrow as he taking on 3 other credible hurdlers who are making their chase debut

          I was convinced he said something totally different on the betfair preview :/ I was thinking about backing him but held off because of this.. i'll see if it can find it

                  Win that and he goes a lot shorter for the NHC. Trouble is, he may then be considered for the Irish National and that'll be that !

                    Winning this would maybe put him too high for an Irish National tilt?

                    Could be between himself and Karl Der Grosse for the NHC and Irish National. Karl not running who is on a lowly mark may be one for the Irish.

                      KDG declared for 2 mile 3f race at Limerick so the NHC would be less likely for him now I'd say.

                        You never know, won over 2m7f last month beating busselton easily giving weight.

                        Strange dropping 4f but maybe not much for him in the immediate future.

                              I think you'll find that Willie made the entries before talking to the Riccis.
