My thoughts are that Willie’s won’t be out in time anyway. They’ll be out for a beginners in mid - late December and then straight to the DRF. Whilst the others will go to the UK for either the Noel Chase or Wayward Lad, or head to Limerick over 2m3f. They could also be kept back for the Killiney Chase in mid January at the Moscow Flyer meeting over 2m3f.
Edit - Ignore all that as the new calendar appears to have basically introduced a new race at Lawlors or Naas weekend - a Grade 2 2-mile novice chase.
Twice he has done that now. He soars over them like Coneygree did (not comparing their abilities btw) very, very clever horse, he is watching all the time and sets himself
The potential of this Arkle is incredible. Cheltenham will claim it is because of the changes made to the Turners Novices' Chase but the truth is that it just looks a very good crop of 2 milers. I will give them the BANC though. That could be the same and that will be because of the changes.
I reckon they’ll be a lot more to come from DML too. He’d be versatile and could take a lead too. Good start to his Chase career and I’d say 2m will be fine.

Well done JackieMoon33 You've been adamant this is a proper horse from day 1, and I'd say with that evidence, he's definitely one to have onside.
Wouldn't want the deep winter ground as we seen last season, but probably every chance Leopards at Xmas will be fine this year.
I’d say he’d be better with a lead too. He has a high cruising speed but got some stamina too. Early days as he’s got to stay fit, but he’s put down a marker there.

You’d be pleased enough that it was littler nighles rather than a big injury?
please tell me you took the 66s.
Edit: watch that interview with Gordon. That smile
