    Good to Soft currently at Carlisle, so will be interesting to see if he goes or not.

    He started out on Good/Soft as a novice hurdler and also on his novice chase debut too, so can't see why he wouldn't run him on it.

      No, I didn't have him pigeon-holed as a soft ground horse. But Dan was very clear yesterday. In his view, he's not a good ground horse.

        Currently lightly raining here overnight (very close to the course) - can’t see the ground changing before Sunday to anything better than the current going.

          What’s happening with this horse?…..another disappointing run……fav today and yet pulled up after being prominent four out and running over probably his best trip……couldnt be the ground today surely?

          Not a well horse or all part of a cunning plan?

          • I can't work it out. It doesn't make any sense. It has got the form in the book but seems to have regressed almost overnight. I was really strong on this fellow for the AB but it's slips in the bin time me thinks.

              Might be as simple as him not being good enough

                Does PU count towards his five runs?

                  Not sure if this was sarcastic based on the emoji but for anyone who doesn't know, my understanding is PU at 2 out can be used for handicap mark at handicappers discretion. Enabler was PU at 3 out today

                    Baffled. I’m wrong more than I’m right so he could be muck. I haven’t seen the race yet but a PU doesn’t always mean he was beaten, could be an issue instead.

                      It was a genuinely sarcastic question. I didn’t know the answer but it was tongue in cheek that he was pulled up deliberately.

                        Looking more likely.

                          • One of my BANC long shots, Peaky Boy, has entries at Wincanton (2m4f Boodles Rising Stars Novices' Chase) and Sandown (2m Boodles Novices' Limited Handicap Chase). Henderson also has Jeriko and Iberico in the Sandown race so he's less likely to go there I'd say. Either way though, I think I may have got it wrong in expecting him to step up in trip this season if those entries are anything to go by.

                                Fergal O'Brien isn't he? Beaten by his stablemate at Aintree.
