Just thought I'd put it in here incase people dont check other threads straight away, spectre has said

'A heads up before it’s in the public domain, Aramon has done a tendon and is out for the season. Hopefully any backers can get out quick.'

Cant see any news on it anywhere atm but ive took his word for it.

[Spectre]

It’s a fact. So cash out fast.

[cpfcpatriot]

It’s a fact. So cash out fast.

Thanks for this. Whipped him out of the August FJ bet.

[The King Pimm]

Top effort Darlojim and Spectre, I appreciate the info, I was planning on adding Aramon this week

[Willdunn99]

It’s a fact. So cash out fast.

Thanks 😊, got out in time and points saved.

Can we keep this thread for announcements only and not a series of thank you messages. It goes without saying that everyone appreciates the heads up but it then sparks a series of unread messages for everyone that are misleading.

Yep, well reminded JM.
This thread for announcements only, discussion should continue on race/ante post threads...

Regarding Early Doors

Unfortunately, he picked up an injury when winning the Galway Plate and is unlikely to run again this season

Have you got a link Somer can’t see nothing, big shame as I like the horse

Its on the main page before you click on a horses name.
David Pipe has seen a mini resurgence in his fortunes over the past two seasons after having to endure a frustrating spell in the doldrums and his 64 winners and £734,090 in prize money is statistics we are more accustomed to from the Pond House trainer.

There appears an upbeat mood as he enters the campaign proper and with last season’s revelation Ramses De Teille heading into battle after lucrative switch to hurdles which saw him net the Grade 2 River Don Novices’ Hurdle at Doncaster and the Grade 2 Prestige Novices’ Hurdle at Haydock there appears ample backing ahead from a squad that looks to have been considerably strengthened with experience and youth.

The Cheltenham winner Siruh Du Lacand evergreen Leoncavallo sport the Pipe shirt this time and with the likes of Kepagge, ever improving Main Fact and Night Edition there look plenty of glory days ahead.

Several of his hurdlers are taking the next step in their careers and going novice chasing and there are also several from the pointing field who could well become household names in the future.

Unfortunately, the high-class bumper horse Israel Champ will spend his season on the bench after meeting with a setback but there could well be another star talent lurking in the shadows for David.
