Anyone going to take the beast on ?

Hendersons looking like they all need a run this year and he is about the biggest of them ...

Another Henderson shortie beaten today.

Thought I read a quote about him missing some work early on too.

Sprinter Sacre (1/6), Captain Conan (With A Run) (7/2), Sire De Grugy (7), Somersby (8), Hinterland (20), Kauto Stone (20), His Excellency (33), Oiseau de Nuit (33), Tataniano (66), Mad Moose (100), Viva Colonia (100)

Sprinter participation in doubt

I'd say it's worse that that

Maybe not

Henderson said: "We routinely give the horses a tracheal wash every Monday morning and though Sprinter Sacre's looked normal the figures from the laboratory told us otherwise.
"If the figures are the same when we test him again on Thursday then he won't run.

"At this stage I’m certainly not ruling him out, I’m just issuing a warning. I have known horses that appear wrong on Monday and be perfectly alright on Thursday. A fortnight ago My Tent Or Yours wasn't too clever.

"Unfortunately it's something you can't treat - it's an absolute nightmare and I wanted to let everyone know as soon as possible. We only got the test results back at four o'clock this afternoon.

"It's very disappointing but you cannot take chances especially with a horse like him, but don't rule him out yet."* *

[Yeehaa]

Odds up and down all day ...
