    Fair enough, I haven't and probably won't get round to listening to the podcast.

      Any interesting nuggets from the podcast? Apologies for being lazy but I’ll struggle to get to it probably.

      Quais De Paris?

        Nah, just the main ones that we've seen

        Lossiemouth - likely to run
        Royale Pagaille - KG instead of Welsh National
        Chacun - set to run and will most likely be stepped up later in the season (Ryanair?)
        Chapeau - Don't know why he hung, will be trying a different approach next time such as earplugs or hood

          He also said that Gaelic Warrior would be Rich Riccis Supreme horse this season so don't trust the man

              He was meant to be. They explained that the plan was to hold him back for this years Supreme, but seeing the 129 rating they couldn't resist a pop at the Boodles.

                Exactly. So they viewed him as a Supreme horse. What's changed? Facile Vega maybe......

                  Personally, I think seeing him on the track they thought he wanted further. That was a very reactionary (and un-Willie like statement in the aftermath). Could also be Vega though too, yes. My point was that I don't think he is untrustworthy, the plan changed because of new information.

                  • Comfort Zone entered in the Juvenile Hurdle at Chepstow on 27th. Be interesting to see what mark he gets and whether JOB then declares him.

                        Some race that is, expect the winner to go a very strong fav for the Triumph

                          I'm really looking forward to seeing Gala Marceau out, I'd backed her before going to Mullins and I'm hopeful she can stake her claim tomorrow. Mctigue I am convinced is being given a typical Emmet Mullins plot, especially after the last run in France when his jockey took him down the worst part of the final straight and effectively ended any chance of winning.

                            ….McTigue 16-1 Boodles with the only firm pricing him up but is 16-1 TWAR Hills.

                              • Willie on Gala Marceau on SL:

                                ”A nice import from France who works well at home. Danny rides, her French form is good and it will be interesting to see where she fits in in the big scale of things. She’s a filly who will run well here and improve from the run.”

                                As an EW backer of her on Monday the last few words are a little concerning.
