      He's my favourite horse in training

      His performance at punchestown last season was breathtaking

      And immensely satisfying as I had a good bet on him and everywhere I looked people were taking him on as he wouldn't stay.

      • Allaho's withdrawal could be bad news for the Champion Chase and Gold Cup.
        I think there'll be a few who would have been swerving the Ryanair because of Allaho's dominance in the race, his absence opens the race up massively and whilst this now becomes a competitive heat it's likely it'll mean horses defecting from those two championship races...

          Only Blue Lord surely from the qmcc field as i think only he and FSivola have the duel entries, others could supplement of course but not sure who would from the qmcc.

              I think Kingy will be tempted to supplement Edwardstone now, he's been talking about stepping him up all season.

              I'm more concerned with the likes of Conflated dropping down, or GA Law stepping out of handicaps on the back of this...

                Edwardstone !

                Wouldn't think he'd even blink, before saying No.

                • I think it’s unlikely Edwardstone would step up now given he just beat Energumene, and with a closer ride to EDG next time out he’ll have a superb chance to win the CC.

                  I can definitely see Blue Lord going Ryanair after his latest defeat, and Conflated potentially now it looks so open. HEC surely will be supplemented now too. We’ll get a handle on Shishkin this weekend against Fakir and Pic D’Orhy. The WTAF prices will be interesting.

                  • If Edwardstone came here instead of the CC, we should probably just have a whip round for National Hunt racing's grave stone imo

                      Shishkin a perfect WTAF horse.

                              He's only ever said he'd step him up if he proved not to be a 2 miler. That's done and dusted now.
