  • Just read about Angels Breath being out. Gutted for connections, I was excited about seeing him back. I don’t have cash out options on the bets I have on him which are mainly TWAR so another one bites the dust.

      This is a real shame. He was so impressive at Ascot last season and was most definitely on my radar for this race once his wellbeing could be assured. Maybe he’s one whose full talent we’ll never really get to see.

        We've always held him in the highest regard and he won twice over fences before coming fourth in the Marsh at Cheltenham on soft ground, which was a fine run as he's better on good. He looks fantastic and can progress again. I think he'll start at two and a half miles, although three miles could be on the agenda soon. He's in fabulous form and was electric schooling two weeks ago.

        Not loads to find with the front 3 from the Marsh and a potential improver but nothing seems to get too overpriced in the Ryanair market with so much uncertainty that always surrounds the favourites. I’d want 50s at this stage.

            He's in good form and we're very happy with everything he's done so far since he's come back. He disappointed in the Champion Chase at Cheltenham but there was no obvious reason for it – nothing showed up after the race. I suppose he was a bit flat on the way to the start and during the race itself. He'd been very good before then and looks to be doing really well now. He'll probably start off in the Shloer Chase [November 15] at Cheltenham and then we'll decide what to do after then. He'll stay further – as we know he can – but his future targets will depend on what happens on that first start back.

              That Shloer chase is also going to be some race based on the horses likely to turn up.

                PTKO beating a staying on DDS would be the perfect result for me. Hobbs will surely then see that Defi should be targeted at the KG.

                • A Plus Tard in the 2m Grade at Navan on Sunday.

                  Not much to beat though, 14lbs clear of nearest rival on OR.

                    The step up hasn't materialised then. Perhaps they are having a crack at the Champion Chase this season.

                    • Nicholls feels today's Haldon GC winner may be even better over 2 1/2 miles. One for here maybe ?

                        Navan is a Left-Handed tracks, so perfect for A Plus Tard.

                        As we discussed last season, England has no left-handed 2M4F Grade 1 or 2 Chases until March, and Ireland is pretty similar - it’s dire for horses like APT who like mid-trips and left-handed courses.

                        That meant APT had to be diverted into 2M Graded races last year, on Left-handed tracks, and it may do so again, unless they can find a left-handed conditions or Listed Chase somewhere over the mid-trip as a prep for Cheltenham,

                          Just seems stupid how they can't fit more mid trip races into the calendar . Loads of horses would be entered up.

                            There are quite a few, they are are at Sandown, Ascot, Kempton - all right-handed tracks.
                            Cyrname ran in most of them, now it turns out he didn’t need to be right-handed, just that all the mid-trips were that way round.

                              The Fortria is where APT started last season as well

                                I did look before and after to see if Greanteen was in any of the Ryanair markets but couldn’t see any. My only other thought was that he could end up in the Brown Plate or will his mark be too high after today’s win?
