    Neither of Gordys then and if Nicholls decides not to run his all of a sudden it looks weak.

    • The only interesting thing about that Chepstow juvenile is the mark allotted to Quilixios by the UK handicapper. If Gordon and Cheveley fancied a sure fire Cheltenham winner.................................

        Messrs Rowlands would have his Rolex on him that's for sure.

          Despite having him any race, that really would be disgusting to see happen

            A lb below Duffle Coat who is now 142 having gone up 2lb uk for the collateral form with Adagio I see.

            Will be interesting who Gordon declares for the Leopardstown race.

            • Gordon won't be able to resist that mark will he?

              Let Zanayhir run at Xmas and see if his last run was really as good as all the time form lads were saying. They were hardly going to take each other on anyway.

              Then he can decide later with what to do Quilixios

              • It will definitely cross his mind. The question is would Cheveley let him do it.

                  I would say Cheveley Park would be upset if the trainer didn’t treat that horse as a Graded one.

                  • Anyone know when the decs have to be in for racing on the 27th ?
                    was going to take a bit of a stab in the dark on ha d’or Antepost if he got declared for leopardstown in the Knight Frank
                    50s would be worth a small punt giving connections

                        • I very much doubt Gordon is eying up a plot at the FW with Quilixios. I’d imagine he has the graded race at Leopardstown lined up for him & if he obliges they’ll both be on track for the Triumph.


                          I rate Zanahir highly but I’m quietly confident Quilixios will be better suited to the stamina test Cheltenham will provide. He looks a serious prospect for staying chases down the line & history tells us the Triumph throws up future stayers more so than CH types!

                          • Zanahiyr declared at Leopardstown. Didn't really expect that.

                            • May have been reading this forum re Quilixious

                              • This contest will shake up the betting on a couple of levels, who will WM stable jockey opt to ride and obviously the outcome of the race.

                                I noticed that Ruby called this wrong when he indicated that Quilixious would turn out here and Zanahiyr Leopardstown later.
