    Looks a nice race dependant of any taken out beforehand
    Gaelic Warrior has an entry at Clonmel 12th January so could be him taken out if any of the front two
    betting suggesting that could be possible

    I’ve taken 5-1 on Inothewayurthinkin, as I think that’s there a good chance he’ll be a shorter price on Sunday

    Irish Point for me. Decent bumper form in France, won a maiden hurdle and finished a narrow second in a decent G1 last time out since he came over from France. 5/1 should be okay.

    Hoping go see my ballymore fancy grangeclare west run here

    Been a good trial recently with both envoi allen and Bob olinger winning this and the ballymore

    And ginto would’ve surely gone close in the bartlett had he not unfortunately broken down when looking ominous

    Wouldn’t back him at the 5/4 he currently is though

    Agree with the shouts for Inothewayurthinkin, and I’ll throw a few quid his way. 7’s at the moment, and just trying to beat that.

    The one I have bet is Imagine. Hard to see him winning, but should give me a run for my money, and I thought he looked a bit too big at 28’s. (Non Runner)

    Inothewayurthinkin is definitely one I like a lot long term

    I’ll give Champ Kiely a chance here. 7/1 seems a bit of a reaction to getting beat just over 4 lengths in the Royal bond where the winner is second fav for the supreme.
    Up in trip here but did win his maiden at this distance

    I’m in the Irish point camp , Glenclare is obvs a talented horse but he,s also very fragile , even if he wins I wouldn’t be confident he gets to Cheltenham , the Elliot horse is a more straightforward option

    Having watched the mares chase, they’ll need to have a fair bit of stamina.

    Grangeclare West for me, I know the form of his maiden isn’t fab but he was impressive. He was my one to watch last season and unfortunately had his injury problem (suspensory?) which is a worry for the future as HDLG says but I still think he’ll win well today.

    Good run by the winner, well done Nathan, he was a decent price too. GCW out like a light- choked or bled?

    Not that good id say GAG the form from
    His maiden has worked out how it looked like it might have before he ran today, gave him
    The benefit that we won it so easily, but he obviously hadnt much left that day either

    The way GW was hanging i am assuming there was an issue.

    “Not that good id say GAG the form from

    I don’t agree. Obviously the form of his last race isn’t good but that day, when Townend pushed the button he strode away from them strongly – despite having been keen early- and I don’t think there was nothing left.

    Today he settled better and jumped a bit better but there was absolutely nothing when Townend asked him, zero. If he’d responded a bit but failed the quite catch the winner I’d say yeah maybe he’s just not good enough or too slow but to me that complete inability to respond at all suggests a physical problem.

    I’d say he,s got a few issues , it may well be we won’t see him again this season , maybe a repair job in a smaller yard with more time
