Any one like Drumcliff? Could sneak in at the weights, currently I think one of the 2 reserves, so only need 2 to pull out before final declarations.
Failed to deliver over hurdles, but his chase performances have been solid enough, if you excuse his last run, over a trip too short IMO where he was readily outpaced as you'd expect in a 2m Grade 2 race, but on the whole he actually jumped really well that day at pace, he is 2 from 3 over the larger obstacles. His overall profile probably isn't ideal leading into the race, but he clearly was expected to achieve a bit over hurdles going off favourite for 4 of his 7 races he ran in. Still lightly raced, 12 runs in 3 and a bit years, he has already achieved more in terms of victories since turning to chasing this season. He will obviously need to improve, but I expect him to do so, and I can see him running a big race for connections who already have 2 strong hopefuls in the race currently.
25/1 NRNB is big enough for me to have a go at, had 2pts e/way.
Nice form boost today as Crievehill absolutely bolts up at Sandown today. Drumcliff beat him by 21 lengths 2 races back.
The soft ground won't be a deterrent either.
Looks as though he will now run too as MWTT all but confirmed by PN tonight that he goes for the Plate, and Demi Sang (another JP horse) is weak on the exchanges, if so, Drumcliff gets in.
