Pre-race, I wouldn't back him for the festival with stolen readies. He has to be a watching brief only for now.
I fully understand KM as I am normally of the same view…….in fact I’d go further and say by in large they never return the same
It’s also why I think there should be more information in the public domain about horses with injuries and returning from injuries……why is it only CH gets all the press media?
Maybe it’s FOMO that tempting me to back the horse !
Was hoping to see one of Willies better novice chasers at Tramore on Thursday over 2m2f, I'm not convinced Mistergif is near the top of the pecking order. Bit disappointing, to be honest.
Hopefully he'll hold the market up so Boldog is a nice price though.
Getting the runs in for the new novices' chase? Leaves It's For Me to go Arkle and IEP for the BANC for connections. Sorted, i got this, don't panic Mullins bingo is easy
'Henderson's Maiden' that is run over 2m on Friday at Newbury will be an interesting watch. Firstly, Nicky does not appear to have a bumper horse from last season that is up to the task. Instead he's relying on an unraced store (Ferando) who is part of the batch that the Holdens transferred to him. I'm guessing he must be showing something to warrant the entry but it's not going to be an easy task as Regents Stroll will be opposing him, albeit over a shorter distance than he's likely to want.

Has there ever been a winner of a Supreme that was starting out the season as an unraced store?
I think it probably gives more weight to the fact, unless Ferando is something special, that Nicky has very little in the way of 2m hurdlers. Still no word on Minella Premier, where do you expect him to start out? Was thinking the Sandown race that Constitution Hill won, but that doesn't appear to be on the fixture list anymore, unless it's been changed to a listed race?

It would definitely seem that way in regard to Nicky's bumper horses from last season. Ferando is a 4yo too so he could have easily given him a quiet bumper campaign and still gone novice hurdling as a 5yo next season. It's intriguing as to what is going on to be honest.
Minella Premier is still unbacked for me and I'm not sure I'm going to to be honest. He's still my top 4yo pointer to follow but I can't settle on what trip he could run over this season. Ultimately my P2P lists are always for the longer term and I've no idea what discipline any of them will embark on at the time I put them together.
The owner likes Sandown so that could be a likely destination.
