I hate the name dropping types but (prepare to be slated) in the box I was in last Sat we were due Nicky Henderson's daughter, and having met her before I can assure you I was disappointed that I'd left by the time she arrived !
She has confirmed that Altior is very well and exactly where they want him so assuming no setbacks it's all systems go for the horse, and they're very excited about what he can achieve.
Dan Skelton came in and said that Three Muskateers is heading for the Hennessy meeting, he stopped short of saying he could be a Gold Cup horse but he says the horse is very very good.
He was with the owners of Cinders & Ashes - who unbelievably were offered £1m by JP after that horse won the Supreme, and much to their regret they turned his down !
They've paired up again to buy a horse a horse called Molly the Dolly, who won her only PTP and beat a horse who has since made the transition to rules and won at Cheltenham already this season (sorry don't know name), this one could be anything.
They have a horse called Western Ryder who won his bumper in 2nd gear apparently, they rate the horse highly, due out again at The Rasen later this week. JP has once again been on the phone and offered £170k which they've turned down.
Few other useful snippets which I won't bore you with now....
