  • Irish Grand National entries out. Question: Is Three Card Brag qualified to run in that?? Only two chasing starts. Surely has to be minimum of three?

      Or if Corbetts out, Meeting in and Embassy here or stay.
      Sunday's Decs will clear that lot up

      • Has something been said re embassy?

        Regardless of PT why does WPM move his best NHC chance to take on his next gold cup horse?

        Would seem a silly move imo but what do I know.

                  Mainly if Fact to File pulls out before Tuesday decs.

                  But also possibly if Corbetts pulls out of the NH chase. Although in this case he'd more than likely remain, and they'd run 2.
                  I think JP wants to give O'connor a ride as he's due to retire, and obviously willie will want a ride for patrick.
                  Obviously Gaelic has been left in also so he could be cover.

                  Nothing more than that really.
                  I do over think things though
                  sometimes it pays off and most of the time it doesn't.

                    Cheers for clarifying, been busy at work so thought I’d missed something being said

                    Hoping I’d finally got wpm’s NHC onside for a decent return for him to move haha!

                    • Embassy/Meeting would have to be declared by Sunday for NHC/Ultima so if anything happens to Corbetts or FTF after that then hard shit.

                        Yeah - same with Gaelic if arkle ?
                        Surprised he hasn;t left others in the wednesday race. But if he thinks they aren't good enough then so be it.

                          Very odd when you think of the crap he sent over last year for it. He must just think FTF is unbeatable. We should all take note.

                            I think it’s clear what they think re FTF, them and everyone else it seems!!
                            My bets are done so all I can do is hope one of them gives me a run for my money
                            Wont be doing anymore.

                              His actual form is guff really

                              Got beat by mike
                              Beat cocooner who bombed
                              Beat garlic warrior left handed in a match who boiled over and bombed

                              He's odds on due to hype

                              looking forward to seeing if he lives up to the hype

                                Like all good novice chasers he's got better with each run. That pace he went at the DRF was top class. I'm a fan although realistically he should be 2-1, 9/4 fav, not odds on but it is the world in which we know inhabit, regretfully.
