Nothing sexy, Go Another One rated 145, is 8lbs higher rating than TBO, but has to give him 4lbs (and has been chasing).
Gordons got a 7lb claimer on TBO.
IMO from what Gordon's been saying about TBO (unlucky at Cheltenham, my handicap horse for the season, Pertemps/Coral Cup, could win a decent pot in Ireland first), I think he has little chance of staying in the 145 or lower rating for the Martin Pipe, one good performance/win in Ireland is going to test that number straight away.
So he's probably looking 145+, and Pertemps/Coral Cup, and not running with the breaks on all season.
Missing out Robin De Foret, 148 chase mark, getting 6pds from TBO, albeit Gordie used Brouder's claim. Foret also comes here hard fit, typical lovely placement from WPM. Horse has some hole in him though when push comes to shove.
Dallas Des Pictons with the entry is interesting for Gordon Elliott. Checking his mark I wonder?
145 is something for Gordon to work with for sure. When you only have to finish 5th or 6th in a qualifier and run down the field in another race or two, and your gonna be on the same mark or a little less.
Whoever got Hills to price up the pertemps with the 2 elliott horses would have done well to have this one in the list also.

DDP is only 7, and been given a 145 rating.
I know it’s just rating-hunting, but actually coming over and running into the first 6, without upping his mark, could be a wise move, to get qualified early, for one Festival option in the bag.

Some of you men must need a notebook for all your users + passwords. Doesn't take long for the boosts etc to dry up, how many multiple accounts does everyone have?!
Would be an interesting thread to start lol.

Could also be a dangerous one to start potentially!
