    Terrific run that, couldn't have ended up anymore spot on I'd say. A win off 150 would have catapulted him into potential BANC territory, he's give that winner a stone and 1 and travelled like a class act in the race, very happy.

    • Jack was still on him the whole way round. Lovely round of jumping. Looked another 150ish run. Ideal.

        Absolutely. Was really impressed how he travelled and jumped. Don't think he got outstayed just beaten by a featherweight and a bloody reserve !
        He looks really classy to the eye and has improved again.

        • Hoping nothing spoils this unexpected party for salvador ziggy, NHC backers.

          • Fact To File likely to be hurdling per the below from RP article on McManus horses (see stable tour thread for full details)

            He said: "Fact To File is probably a little further away from a run than A Dream To Share, but Willie has been very happy with him. He will start out over hurdles when Willie is ready."

                  He interacts with Joe chambers a fair bit too so he’s sound enough in my book. I’ve cashed out BANC bets. Also PP knocked a point off him.

                  • I don't see any reason why people would expect Gaelic Warrior to be going over fences to be honest.

                      • Elliott was delighted with the performance of Salvador Ziggy and said: “It was a great run under a big weight. He could easily win a big one, although he'll have plenty of weight in races like the Munster National or the Troytown. We're delighted with him though.”

                        Shot himself in the foot though.........


                        Kerry National winning trainer said....

                        The horse got in as second reserve, and Brassil added: “It was after 8.00 this morning. Gordon Elliott rang me to tell me he had taken one out and that I should declare, because he had another one that they might take out because of the ground. It was a very sporting gesture by him.

                        • There’s a small segment at the end of the latest ep of let’s talk racing were josh (who has connections with Elliot’s yard)mentions the NHC as ziggys target. Also gave a glowing report on brighter days ahead. From about 16 mins on. Well worth a listen

                              Think 'start' is an interesting choice of word. Without reading the full quotes. Could be reading into it too much thought

                              • reads as starting over hurdles when Willie is ready as opposed to chasing , that's my take on it
