    This will mean duplication and contradiction but that's unavoidable...
    I wasn’t complaining. Just thought it would be interesting to see which races we have a few selections in even with 7 months left to go - such as the Gold Cup with 3 horses already.

      I think you'll probably get it within 3 guesses Kev.

        I'm stuck - I can't find the market anywhere

          There isn't a market so I requested a price from William Hill. The race in question is the Ultima and he's a horse I know we have both been keen on (and have backed?) in the last 2 festivals.

                  Barney Dwan in the Ultima. 33/1 with Hills which is tempting me. He has good festival form. He's only rated 143 at the moment so that mark could easily be blown early in the season, especially if he lines up in the Hennessy.

                    Anyone hear any updates on Robin Roes rehab? He would be a potential Coral Cup type for me if showing some of his old zest!

                          Probably old news now, but he’s with Olly Murphy.

                            Robin Roe
                            Verdict: Another who has joined me from Dan Skelton and it is well documented that he's been hard to train since picking up an injury for his former connections. On his last start, he fell in the Grade 1 'Challow Hurdle' at Newbury when going well so he's obviously a very smart horse. Certainly not an easy horse to train though but we'll look at starting him off in a hurdle race in late autumn. If I'm able to get him back on the track then he has the world at his feet.

                              Cheers lads couldn't find any info on him myself, will wait & see if Olly can get him back on the track first after reading that!
