Confirmed after the summer he,s going to Christian Williams , not surprised as Jefferson is struggling but id have thought he,d have gone to a bigger yard , surely it,ll all be about the King George again
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
If it’s the owner’s decision why wait so long, I would imagine the best days are behind him.
Since winning the Ascot Chase in 2018 Waiting Patiently has IMO run over his optimum trip twice and other trips (ranging from 2m to 3m1f) five times.
Clueless, frankly.
I know he’s a fragile horse and they have to strike when he’s sound, but the horse has been royally messed about.

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"This type of thing must be quite a moral dilemma for some owners. As the horse will be 10 rising 11 this season it’s certainly reached that it has to be now or never.
Too little too late. Same thing has happened with Lalor who’s gone to Nicholls a little long in the tooth
I love lalor so I hope Nicholls can work his magic

Well hallelujah.
Will be bordering on 11 when he returns to the track though, best years wasted I’m afraid.

He came a reasonably close second in the King George though- RP comments “ran on well, nearest finish” and he was BD early on his other King George run.
Was Willie Mullins “clueless” to run Allaho over 3 miles and 2 miles last season?
Fair comment and no, I don’t think it was Mullins’s most astute bit of campaigning tbh.
Both trainers – apart from trotting out the “how many big-race winners have you trained?” line – might say the race programme offers limited opportunities for top-class chasers, but at least Mullins won a Ryanair with Allaho.
Btw, if Jefferson asked me how many big-race winners I had trained, my reply would be: “Only slightly fewer than you, actually, and I’ve never held a licence!”
We all see the game differently….
