    Hillcrest and Mount Ida deserve strong mentions.

    Is this the one we get Gaelic warrior in? Pretty obvious case but not sure he's been in any of the others?

      +1 for Hillcrest, Mount Ida and Gaelic Warrior. Wouldn't be opposed to Impervious either.

            In a race I’m sure most of us have got massively wrong I couldn’t agree more…

              Just read that Daly unlikely to run him at Chelt and Aintree and that he thinks he has the speed to win at top level over 20f so maybe the target isn’t a given.
              A small flag being waved…

                Would be just our Bartlett luck this year if we piled into Hillcrest and then he went elsewhere ​​​​​​

                  Where's that Ista? I read the RP article published this morning that still says "one or the other" and that "his next assignment will be over 3m but he's shown he can do it over 2 1/2 as well". Also said that he didn't have a hard race. I read this as quite positive towards Hillcrest running in the AB.

                    Yes same article EE

                    He does go on to say:

                    ’I wouldn't think he needs to do both [festivals]," said Daly’

                    I would think he has to be looking at Cheltenham ahead of Aintree given the state of the Potato race and the fact he says he’a out of Saturday really well doesn’t suggest he needs much recovery time…

                      I can’t remember a year like it, I’ve made a total pigs ear of all 3 novice hurdles, I’ll be looking to take advantage of the empty bars when they’re running…

                        I don’t need much persuading to put Gaelic good ting in.

                        For what it’s worth, I too like the Hilcrest suggestion so that’s almost a certainty to be in at this stage with him being nominated so many times this morning.

                          What did you think of The Tide Turns, MoM?

                            Definitely a run with promise in a decent race where he’s been kept out the back and out the way with the eye on Cheltenham (you’d imagine) and I’m sure he’s likely to have a bit of give in his handicap mark.

                            However, has he got a stone in hand like the Gaelic good thing though?

                              Assuming value NRNB plays...

                              Gaelic Warrior - think will be smashed up on day
                              Fury Road (NHC) - could be close to fav on day if goes here as now looks plan
                              Tiger - still too long
                              Hillcrest - class horse in Spuds

                                Is there some info on Fury Road coming to the NHC and not the Brown Advisory?
