    Not sure on that front, he doesnt really have a link to closutton iirc.

    Not sure the link to cullentra is that strong tbf
    He does say he has a connection from time to time. Apparently he had word on Maj last year. He has direct comms with Gordon, so his stuff from Cullentra is usually good.

    If Ma Jacks Hill is the bumper horse though I’d be very surprised. Looked a real stayer. Theflyingking and Classical Creek looked the bumper types to me. Jury’s out on He Can’t Dance. He’s a maybe for me.

      I think he get's some of his stuff off here. 'Hi Josh '

      I hadn't seen anywhere about El Fabiolo being injured until it was brought up on here and the day after on LTR he said he was in training despite rumours of him being injured. Before it was mentioned on here, everyone was just carrying on as normal. All the Youtube channels were none the wiser and then it became a thing. The fact is, he HAS been injured, maybe not badly but he has, so Josh took some info, poo pooed it and gave out the wrong info on his channel and then Willie confirmed he had been injured.

        Think Gordon said He can't Dance 'keeps taking his eye out'.....that can't be good

          Re: He Can’t Dance I don’t think Gordon is gonna give out his best bumper horse to the press at their first enquiry, I’d be more inclined to take note of the perennial Down Royal Saturday declaration.

          He does seem to have some serious ammunition in that department, unusually for Gigginstown they have a couple of types that wouldn’t be top of their usual shopping list (dour staying chasers)! I’ve now got three of his in the book with Classical Creek being the no.1…

          See ya later WPM

          • Not sure BDA has the best conditions tomorrow. Minimum trip, quicker ground than ideal, first time out. Could she be turned over ? KOK will relish trip/conditions and if DLL turns up on one of his good days then who knows. Maybe she'll be a bigger price this time tomorrow.

              Yeah im half thinking theyll pull her on this ground and just allow KOK to go against DLL. If she were to run though, id definitely mark her up if she can beat those 2 with their favoured conditions and BDA carrying the penalty. Almost everything against her tomorrow

                Agree. If she runs/wins it'll be a decent performance.

                  Yeah, KOK will go well I think. He needs better ground, which it looks like being, and can see the mare being pulled based on this.

                  • Gordon’s pulled a load including Speculatrix and Wingmen. BDA remains for now.

                    • Driving up to DR today and going to be a real shame if don't get to see a few decent ones. Fingers crossed BDA still goes, her and Firefox still worth it!

                      • Ballyburn propping the Arkle market up will help but Firefox could get a drastic haircut this afternoon

                        • The Enabler goes all the way up to 3m at Cork on Sunday. It's the right trip at least but it will be his second run and we're only just in November. At least plenty of the other Gordon x Giggy also look to be getting runs under their belts too.

                          • ….looks like BDA a best 2-1 MH after that win.

                            • Grey Dawning a NR tomorrow, instead declared for a much easier race (on ratings at least - 5lbs clear of the field) at Carlisle on Sunday

                              Probably got excuses, no doubt.

                                Dan said he was unlikely to run anywhere this weekend due to the ground. So if Carlisle is slightly softer, that'll be why. Wouldn't be surprised if he was a NR there as well.
