I was just about to post about Rishi Persad’s comments on the Opening Show this morning Nick..only just watched it.
I can only say it’s mighty confusing about RR’s participation as his withdrawal from their online competition is definite. Would be a strange move if he was put back in last minute and would imagine players will be asking questions if he takes part now. Of course would love him to run. 
I have sent an email to Daleham Hall Stud the Godolphin HQ and requested an update on Rebel’s Romance situation. No idea if they will get back to me but will keep you updated
He is still withdrawn from the competition so the mystery deepens.
I would suggest an NRNB wager if it’s available and proceed with caution ⚠️
