Guess he'd get a couple more lb here so around 143 but Saint Sam was 2nd off 138 last year and Fil d'Or has achieved a lot more.
Think he'd go triumph but not completely unthinkable.
Yeah, may happen. Jordan Gainford could take 3lbs off or Shane Fitzgerald could take 5lbs off so I guess there is a small possibility, should the owners wish to split their runners. Of course, they may not want to, which would be fair enough.
I guess, at a push, Fil Dor could have a claimer on top and still come here, but would find it highly unlikely now.
With the emergence of Vauban, if I were the owners, I'd want both aimed here. Pied Piper looks the pure speed and quality horse to take on Vauban accordingly, but I still wouldn't dismiss Fil Dor. The Triumph can be a staying affair and that lad seems to stay.
Champion Green and Ebasari both entered in the 4yo novice hurdle at Naas on Saturday. This race has previously been won by Band of Outlaws and Aramax on their way to winning the Fred Winter/Boodles at Cheltenham.

The Tide Turns aswell. Would be the third run required for the Boodles for him.

Agree, FD does look the ultimate Triumph horse to me. Proper grinder/Stayer . The race is always run at a crazy pace which will suit him. It'll ge difficult for him to turn things around with the front two but it's still a possibility.
Assuming this Gaelic Warrior is not already home & hosed as seems to be the feeling, a couple from my early long list run on Wed for 3rd time & thus their mark:
HMS Seahorse at Fairyhouse is so obvious having been beaten by the favs for the Triumph fto & G1 4th on 2nd run. Ideal profile for this assuming he wins easy on Wed.
The other is ex Irish Swinging London at Fakenham fto for Olly Murphy. Could be an interesting contender if getting in down the bottom.
Both won easy as expected & have ew chances for me.
Think the 16s HMS very fair if it wasn’t for this big Richie-Rich lurker at the head of the betting!
