A quick check of the 5 days and I can only see one GB trained horse. Kirby's Top Ville Ben in the handicap chase on Sunday. Thought they might be more competition this year.

So this is the Irish only Olympics then.

Not enough horses in GB to fill our own races so not surprising

Gets rid of the also rans I suppose, easier to work out the winners

The Olympics is March, always has been.

Coko Beach and Stattler both entered in the Cross Country at Punchestown on Monday.
Both rated 160+

That makes over half a dozen 160+ rated animals that are potential runners in the XC, and like I mentioned other day, possibly more than in the Gold Cup and Ryanair
Had Noble Yeats not won the other day then he'd be another possible runner.

Hoping Coko Beach might be a compromise for Conflated going ryanair (even though I have him backed for XC at 12's)

Think Madara has been left in so it's a 2 horse assault.
Not without a chance Madara either, if declared.

Leopardstown drying out quickly. A dry few days ahead also. Going most likely ideal jumping ground come Saturday. Great news.

Cheers, he's short enough at the minute so not surprised, I'd have had a bet but will wait and see how it goes for now.

Wait for the Japanese talking dogs.

Some trainers would need to get a wriggle on

If that Saturday card at DRF was served up in England there would be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth at the state of the game

Agree. Pretty poor turn out.

And imagine how much stick nicky would get if he changed his mind last minute and switched races like Willie has with GW

Most of the things nicky gets stick for Willie does much more often

I'd say the drying ground is the reason he's not in the Arkle.
