I hope the Marsh doesn’t cut up to nothing, and we don’t here Hendo suggest Allart could go up or down in trip.
I don’t think he will as Shishkin and Monkfish sit astride the other two markets, so wherever these novice chasers go will probably require a better than average performance for the Grade 1 to beat any of those favourites.

Yes, he did well there, on Chase debut, though I am no fan of the runner-up.

If Shishkin and Envoi Allen were both owned and trained in Ireland, where do you think Allart should run?
I tink he'd be a two miler, I'm shocked you are pigeon-holing him as being a horse for the intermediate trip?
If he avoids Envoi, he takes on Shishkin.... if the trainers switched I'm sure Allart would be an Arkle prospect and even if he'd run in the exact same race, no way I'd watch that and think he would be out of place at 2 miles!

I wasn’t suggesting any trip, just that it would be great if the trainer didn’t make scaredy noises at taking on Envoi Allen.
Partly because he trains Shishkin.
With Shishkin and Monkfish astride the top of the 2M and 3M markets, I think we are blessed with strong favs in all three races.
So Allart should go wherever his own abilities give him the best chance.
I’m not sure what that best trip is, but as he is a Shantou, that generally means 2M4F or more, for Cheltenham Festival win and place success, and very little success over 2M.
But stats aren’t everything, by a long chalk.Last edited by Saxon Warrior; 18 December 2020, 05:21 PM."Journeys to Glory, breathing in his head".

I think his trainer is a scardy-cat, but him having the Arkle horse that's doin' the scaring means they'll probably split them so Nico has a good ride in both.
I think he's a two miler though as I've said a zillion times today, so I hope we get to see that tested.
