    Apple Away is ultimately Cheltenham-bound, with connections likely to come away from this weekend with more of an idea of which direction to go in at the meeting.

    Scudamore added: “We have Giovinco as well, who won on Thursday, and Apple Away and one will probably go to the Ultima.

    “Apple will probably have more options and could go for the amateur race (National Hunt Challenge Cup), but I would like to keep Derek (Fox) on her if possible. You have the Ultima and the Brown Advisory, so we will see.”
    Amazed she's up above 2/1 today. Ultima getting a mention is a slight concern but surely they're there to win it today. Might have a nibble

      22-1 Hills for Giovinco NRNB is not a bad price for the Ultima. specials.

                  • Didn't have a hard race so hopefully he will take the Flyingbolt/Aintree route to free up Hunters Yarn for the Arkle...

                          Mullins said of the success: “He’s still learning to jump and he’ll probably be better going out in trip at some stage, but this race fitted nicely into his schedule. It will leave him nicely set up for the spring.

                          “I’d imagine he’ll stay at home and there are plenty of good races to be won. He could go for a novice handicap.”

                              With Iroko and InthePocket returning from the grave, it wouldn't surprise me if Hercule popped his head up from his winter break.

                              No idea if he's back in full training though ??
                              He'd have a shout.
