Does this suggest someone thinks he will or wont be going tbe Arkle.
They laid him, so won't run or win.
But I couldn't tell you how much was involved. Matched (backed at 11 since) so I'm not sure Facile's situation is that clear looking at the 2 races.
Glad I took the 8s on offer nrmb last night, now generally around 5s
He'd still need the ground to be on the soft side to go Turners even without F2F in it but I'd be surprised if they didn't go that route if conditions were right and the big fav went BANC. Skelton has already said the course on the Thursday would suit him better.
“Fact To File is in the Brown Advisory and Turners at Cheltenham. I’d be leaning towards the Brown Advisory, but I’m just wondering what other horses in the same colours might be going that way,” Mullins continued.
“His speed figure at the Dublin Racing Festival was fantastic. Someone told me at Christmas in his beginners’ chase he did a huge one, I’m into what I see visually and the way they do it but the run at Christmas it transpired was right and he doubled down on it.
“Fact To File has done everything right and has put in a huge trial for either race at Cheltenham.”
Of Gaelic Warrior, he said: “Obviously going left-handed didn’t suit Gaelic Warrior, but getting worked up before the race didn’t help and during the race he made a mistake at the fourth last which seemed to unsettle him.
“He was very disappointing but he seems all right. He’s a little quiet in himself but he would be, most good horses are when they are beaten.
“We’ll try to get him right and the Turners was what we had in mind for him.”

Such a strange view considering he's battered the Turners favourite, and the race looks weaker, & the GDC factor.
I've no idea what JP horse he's thinking of for the RSA? CC surely not...

Would actually make way more sense if he had misspoken and he meant he's leaning Turners...
Corbetts was entered in the Scilly Isles before being a NR. I‘m a couple of pints in on a Monday night admittedly, but am I mad to suggest Corbett’s could go Turners? His one victory this season was over the Turners distance at Fairyhouse.
He must think his also rans have a better chance in the turner's than they would in the BANC
Mark Walsh did say after DRF he thought he was a 3 miler
Gaelic et al do surely have an easier assignment in ginnys destiny than against stay away fay, grey dawning and montys star
The turners is paper thin, and as good as ginnys destiny was last time hes no potential super star and was pretty fortunate imo to beat grey dawning who looks better at 3 miles to me
