    • Looks like we could see Monkfish v Envoi Allen at punchestown then over 3m. Exciting stuff.

          No dramas. Happy to support. Was just wondering what the process was. Thanks. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

          • Apparently Envoi Allen skips Fairyhouse this Sunday and is going to Punchestown to take on Monkfish over 3m.

            Sweet Jesus that's a clash to relish!!!

            • Latest Exhibition likely take up the race on the Sunday now then? Rather than national?

                Surprised myself there if I'm honest...
                That's brilliant. Thanks Istabraq.

                • Anyone ever use Unibet? I opened an account this morning and it has just been closed! I didn't even have a bet.

                    .....fantastic, the outcome will surely have an impact on next years GC market.

                    • They may as well find out now I guess. I doubt if either will blink too because you get the feeling both sets of connections have total faith in their horses.

                      For me I thing Envoi Allen may have the speed to win around Punchestown and will probably be the fresher horse, but Monkfish looks a thorough stayer, and may be the one for the Gold Cup next season. I think they'll be kept apart again in between.

                        Stayed on very well in the Triumph and a performance that got lost on many, easy to forget that he only joined Mullins 6 weeks before the festival.
                        I'm not convinced a sharp 2m will suit but if they go chasing the Marsh might be perfect...
                        I was wondering this. Too early to speculate on but definitely a horse I have my eye on.

                        • Just been reading about Patrick Mullins coming over next Thursday to ride Billaway. Anyone any idea if Codd will be over as well? And if so what will he ride?

                          • I walk around Cheltenham Racecourse every day and feed an ex flat racehorse and pony polos - very much the highlight of my day at the moment! I was chatting to their owner earlier (who is also GF to the head groundsman at Cheltenham) and she said they are getting a new horse next week. I asked who it was and she replied (as if I might not know) - it's 'a horse called Yorkhill' . There is something lovely about Yorkhill being retired to a life of leisure overlooking the scene of his greatest triumphs after such a great (and up and down) career. Cant wait to stand upside that unit.

                              This is already beginning to feel like a heavyweight clash... Fraser v ali.... Actually looking forward to this more than the grand national..

                                Energumene still entered. Right handed and 2 and a half miles would look ideal for him. Not sure Latest Exhibition would have the speed. I think the Irish National would be the most likely destination with the ground remaining good.
