this week's entries

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.

What's your thought's on Incisive for Nicky and Bartlett? Got some pretty strong words during the stable tours, but no sign of an entry.

….Karamoja might be interesting tomorrow (2.25 Thurles) with a view to MNH, Mullins introduced Fun, Fun, Fun to win the same race last season.

2 lengths behind the much vaunted Venusienne at Auteil. I searched for her on this forum and Twitter last night to find no mention at all. So definitely under the radar.

Surely a huge vote of confidence that Paul has picked her over Baby Kate who seemed a decent enough sort last year.

I’ve been waiting for this one to come out.
Does seem highly thought of.
Same sire as Buveur Dair, and dam had same sire as Sprinter Sacre.
Not heard anything.

Be careful with any bets you're placing this weekend folks...

Lossiemouth declared in the 3:40 Newbury (different horse, same name)

Like a Lobos wet dream seeing two of them

Lovely double

Minella Premier has always been a head scratcher for me and there was plenty of discussion about his pedigree versus his P2P performance visually. I'd have no doubt that long term he'll be running over 3m at some point, but he also displayed some speed that may allow him to compete over shorter, early in his career.

If I'd never seen him run, I'd say he would be a AB horse, but then I'd have said the same for Ballyburn too.

Strong Leader has to be the bet of the weekend @ EVS, for the Long Distance Hurdle.

Langer Dan doesn't like this time of year and has never gone beyond 2m5f, Monmiral is looking for a mark for a repeat in the Pertemps and Flight Deck is rated 132.

Olly Murphy is also in top form (25% win rate last two weeks), whereas some of Dan Skeltons runners have needed the run (10% win rate from last 2 weeks).

Someone try and put me off.

Is he fit ?

First race of the season……

The one question mark.

Given the way Olly Murphy's horses are running, I'd suspect so.

Skeltons comments on Langer Dan and the long walk are laughable.
can’t link at minute as on my phone but it’s on the racing post site

Yeah saw them!

Thought some of the comments were odd.

This one in particular "The positive this year is that he competed at a much higher level in the spring than he has done before. We've started seasons before in the mid-140s whereas now he's 160, which is a very different area to be in."
