    Not sure if Gaelic Warrior is that easy to train. When he is right he is very good, however the King George does look tailor made for Fact to File. Its a terrible race if no irish come over.

    I thought they might have had a crack with Jonbon this year but its the tried and tested route. We know he stays 2.1/2 mile so he could potentially go straight up to 3 Mile but the tingle creek is way to close, 2-3 week turnaround, cant see Hendo going for that. Jango Baie is king george bound, not sure he’ll be quite up to this level.

    Given he’s a C&D winner and Pauling says he’s definitely going here, I’ll take Ladbrokes 16-1 ew for The Jukebox Man for this. He’s surely on a big improve as a 6 year old.

    Not to read too much into anything as things change, form, plans etc

    Fact to File quote from Mullins

    “He won the Ryanair very stylishly so you’d think that’s the obvious place to go back.

    “I think the lead up to Cheltenham we had last season will be the same.”

    Gaelic Warrior quote from Mullins

    “I really want to have a crack at the King George with him”

    Myretown quite interesting at 66’s if things went well at Newbury. I’d be expecting to see him at least in the entries. Can’t be betting another at this stage though

    I’d also be very interested in Champ Kiely if he got an entry

    Champ Kiely still 33s with b365 after that decent run at Naas where he jumped well. Took a bit of that.

    Reluctantly joined you Grass. I’m wanting to just focus on Jango here, but even if that 66’s Myretown still appeals, there’s a few ifs and buts attached to that one. The 33’s Champ Kiely just looks wrong after that

    Edit – Cashed out, decided to wait. Was only a small interest, and just going to focus on Jango

    16-1 still available for The Jukebox Man with Betfred if you’re quick!

    A few good candidates to finish in the runner up spot to the Willie Mullins number one.

    One things for sure you wouldn’t want to give Jukebox an easy lead , he’s a very talented horse , his jumping is a big asset

    That was a striking performance from TJM

    Has an unusual quirk when he’s really eager to kick on where both front legs hit the ground simultaneously

    Should be a classic King George
