    Looks a very good race this, with some exciting horses in there.

    I had already earmarked Lidar as a horse to follow closely this season, along with Ghizao, so to see those 2 taking on eachother again, should make for a good race.

    The Henderson team also seem to think a lot about General Miller and Cootehill is very well thought of at Twisters and Carl’s yard.

    I have seen Lidar work on a few occasions and i think he could prove to be a very good horse, seems to be a natural and does things easily.

    They said at our preview night that Alan King thinks this could be the best horse he has ever trained.

    Interesting that he’s willing to take on Ghizao again, but this time over hurdles, and could be a different proposition now going over them. I make Lidar the bet here.

    I backed Ghizao last out at a very generous price on the advice David Johnson during an ATR interview.

    I know it was a bumper race that day, but he beat Lidar and the rest senseless and looks a real prospect. Unless his hurdling is a bit dodgy, I fail to see how Ghizao cannot win this race.
