this week's entries

There are a few bits and pieces of form in there for sure. But if Paddy can’t put these away then he’s no place lining up at the festival.

The question is ... are you suggesting 33/1 ante post or 20/1 NRNB :semi-twins:

I’d be NRNB personally. Even if he were to win well, they could go to Aintree instead as Lucinda likes that race a lot.

Hollow Games entered up in the Hunters Chase at Haydock tomorrow not priced up anywhere yet. Is he eligible does anyone know? Think I've backed him at the festival everytime he has ran.

My Drogo won an open p2p so needs to come 1st or 2nd tomorrow to qualify.

Hollow Games only looks to have had 1 p2p run and he came 5th, so needs a top 2 tomorrow and another hunter chase top 2 or p2p win to qualify.

Thanks I wasn't sure on the qualifying criteria.

Allmankind is qualified and has been moved to James Owen to have a crack at this race.
 
I notice Henry has entered Good N’Kind up next week. Would he send him to the Bartlett after one run? (assuming he impresses)

HMS Good N Kind would only be going for the AB if he were to make it. I’m not sure Henry or Robcour would want to do so off the back of a maiden win in February though. It might prove a decent little race as two of my 5yo P2P horses have entries after flopping in bumpers.
 
Punchestown racing Thursday and Friday
 
No Gidleigh Park in the Pendil - setback via Harry Fry.

I backed Good N Kind too for the Bartlett ., so would be wishful thinking from me ..
I suppose if he wins cosily , they might think about it ,.......... but I'm thinking Unlikely and hoping I'm wrong .
 
Shearer running tomorrow at taunton, needs to fininsh in top 2 to qaulify for the festival, the hunters is one of the few races nichols still likes to target and has a decent record in. Shearers had a hurdle win at cheltenham, is 135 over hurdles and 137 chasing so still plenty of upswing left in that chase mark, only 8 and is 3/3 over fences, the plan is the festival is it goes ok tomorrow, hes been set up by nichols for olive imo looking forward to a hills win/tday/fest price as the 25s has now disappeared.
 
Nicholls bought a share in Shearer, presumably with this in mind. 14/1 nrnb with b365.

I would think it would be quite short on the day if he qualifies as its a good story too, the 25s went yesterday at sky and the 16s at betfair literally went 12s in front of eyes, i cant access denise tho.
