2022 National Hunt Novices Chase

They must need a race. Why enter/run them otherwise . I'd be more concerned if they do don't run.

RWF takes his racing. Last year he raced 5 times in 80 days. Would have been absolutely no bother at all running today and then in 23 days at the fez. Too much being made of it IMO

Think it's the fact his main target is the GN after. They'll certainly want him a little fresher for that. A deep ground gruelling 3 miles followed by a competitive 3m 6f around Cheltenham plus the travelling isn't the best preparation imo for any horse however resilient.

It’s just wishful thinking on my part Lobos, after backing him last year and this, I just want him to a turn up.

I don’t think GE will give two shits about the GN as long as he wins at Cheltenham. MOL on the other hand….

Finger's crossed he does.

Wouldn't surprise me if the first string for Giggi in the National was Farclas tbh - 5th last year. Then they've got Samcro who has been campaigned in an interesting manner over the last two years. I'm definitely worried about Fred's NH chances atm, but there are also other options for Giggi so all may not be lost. Don't they also have Coko Beach entered - with all THREE lower in the weights than Fred?

…..looked at the previous 10 winners of this race to determine gap to their previous run;

Galvin 144 days
Ravenhill 107 days
Le Breuil 52 days
Rathvinden 37 days
Tiger Roll 134 days
Minella Rocco 24 days (ran at Ascot meeting)
Cause of causes 47 days
Midnight Prayer 31 days
Back in Focus 75 days
Teaforthree 18 days

A bit of a mixed bag, probably a pointless bit of analysis.

Think issue is less gap to this race....and more from NHC to GN.......specially having Tues race as well

Anyone bit mystified that RWF doesn’t have the coddmeister jocked up, Braeside has ???. Though it would be stonewaller that Jamie would ride it for Elliot unless Gigginstown use other amateurs

It's been discussed plenty enough mate.
Just flick back through this thread 2 or 3 pages.

edit - maybe 4 or 5

Jamie Codd hasnt ridden a single horse for Gigginstown this season, has he?

Hes never ridden the horse, even in Bumpers.

Has he ridden Braeside before Sax?

4 times, 0 wins.

Cheers. That helps a little with the RWF jockey conundrum. Still need to find a jockey for him though
