    Just noticed that the owner of Monbeg Genius is “Barrowman Racing Limited”.
    Yes, that would be Doug Barrowman (Mr Michelle Mone) he of the alleged corruption of PPE contracts (and watching Newsnight right now) and tax avoidance.
    If Monbeg Genius finally puts last years Ultima form into practice this season then just imagine if he ends up a leading National contender and the press finally realise? It was bad enough having Dildo Harding and Walk in the Mill a few years back, and the Bamfords “Boris Johnson’s underwriters” with Mister Coffey now, but this would be a new low.

    Personally wouldn’t be surprised if JP ended up buying Monbeg Genius, or perhaps the Smiths. Barrowman and Mone might soon be disappearing off somewhere that doesn’t have an extradition treaty with the UK.

    That’s probably a sign to pile onto Monbeg Genius given racing’s ability to shoot itself in the foot.

    I am also expecting Paula Vennells to be appointed the next head of the BHA any day…

    According to the Post, they have only run one other horse this season: Ruler Legend, last seen when unplaced in a novice hurdle at Chepstow over Christmas.

    Maybe this is the reason Monbeg Genius hasn’t been sighted recently:

    Add him as a bonus to the Caldwell Construction dispersal.
