    Yeah Jack, definitely a plan with him.

    A lot happier with that today from him.

    Having been happy with Dashel Drasher last time, I think it can actually be marked up, as I hadn’t realised that he had lost two front shoes.

    I’d be happy enough with a repeat of last time though, as he faces up to Champ again.

    Back a furlong or so in trip should suit too for him I suspect looking at his hurdle form up to now!

    Yeah Jack, hovered over Hills 3 places ew at 12’s the other night, but sat it out unfortunately.

    I’d fancy he can make the three here.

    Well that didn’t tell me anything. Very disappointing, and the only consolation is that I didn’t back him.

    Dashel back today in a race he really has to win. Hopefully a clear round for him first and foremost.

    The Wayward Lad was a good race to watch, Global Citizen jumped really well.

    Another nice race at Leopardstown there. Bit disappointed with Walk Away but beaten by decent horses includimg Myth Buster who looked a bit green. A good race to watch again for future reference.

    You beat me to it Grass, I immediately checked for Myth Buster for The Close Bros Novices, but not quoted yet.

    I liked that run a lot. If he gets introduced to that market I’m betting him, but eye catching enough to be considered for the other Novice Chases.

    He’s been introduced to the Close Bros market at 20’s.

    That seems fair, but I’ll see how other firms go, as well as the markets for other races.

    Delighted with Midnight Shadow yesterday, as I put up The Dipper for him a few months back.

    He would definitely have got to Champ, no question, but I think the way he tied up, Champ would have held on.

    Midnight Shadow swerved Cheltenham last year, and he wouldn’t be top of my list this year. I’ve a feeling he might go to Aintree for something like The Maghull Novices.

    I’m not betting him, but Early Doors is very interesting Runner at Punchestown today, and after being a surprise omission from The National Hunt Chase, I just wonder if he’s one for The Irish National.
