He is entered in this and the Coral Cup, Nicholls not committing to anything at the moment but as he is only up a 1lb will consider the strength of each race and either go here or wait for aintree

Added Malaya 25/1 NRNB with SkyBet today.
She was travelling sweetly on the Saturday just gone, where she finished 4th over 3f further than this race. She was keen enough that day so probably didn't quite see out the trip.
I think a stiff 2m is what she needs anyway. She has some nice form, and was running a fair race in a Grade 1, in heavy ground over at Auteuil where, although looking likely to be beat a fair way, she travelled like she was in the race for a long time, before she eventually fell. That was behind Master Dino, a form line I like, a lot.
Paul has said she has an entry for the County in his Q&A last night, whether she runs or gets in is another thing, but NRNB covers that problem.
PN also has a fair record in the race (thanks to Charlie's analysis), 2 wins and 1 place from 16 runners, so no worries in that department.
I have also added her in an 'owners' Friday double with Pic D'orhy for the Triumph.
I have 3 backed in this race now, and that will be it now until nearer the time.

Added today at 25/1NRNB - Sluiced in at Cheltenham last time - that form looks ok & already near fav for the Imperial Cup!
This is the only handicap entry (Can’t see it running in the Supreme - only other entry) Smacks to me of an old fashioned plot to try and land the bonus like M Pipe used to do.
Won’t be anywhere near 25s if it lands the Imperial Cup & NRNB safety net if it goes Pete Tong!

people were talking about champion hurdle for it in Ireland at one point
not sure about that but anything in mid 144 - 148 and the race should suit.

Am i mad that I can't get away from Mr Adjudacator for this? The awful form of last years Triumph and a poor run behind Espoir D'Allen on his last run should put me right off but I can't get away from the thought that they've put the horse away in order to keep it's handicap mark.
I've never forgiven myself for not backing Arctic Fire for this because of the lack of a prep run (albeit a much longer absense).
