Originally posted by billymag View PostRight just got back from Ditcheat, managed to grab a few words with Paul in the pub on Saturday night. No matter how much i tried I couldnt get him to run Topofthegame in the JLT, he did say if it was really soft he might, but he wasnt budging!!!!!!
He wants to run Ask For Glory but needs to persuade Mr Barber, who isnt keen on running in flat races!!!!!!!!
He had the Diego Du Charmil look in his eye when he was talking about Friend or Foe, but he must be struggling to get into this off 128?
Pic D'orhy will run but only if its soft, so start doing a rain dance!!! He said he did a serious bit of work at Wincanton and if he runs he will go close to winning, but he stated a number of times that he only runs if its soft.

I was going to post some of Tom Segal's comments from today's RP Q&A but the main is a complete idiot. I will give you two" "too busy to go to Cheltenham" and , in terms of the likely going, "who knows what the ground will be - no point worrying about it!" (that after being definitive on the chances of load of horses)

Yeah he loves him and thinks he should be fav, hes very surprised hes not shorter than Santini. I really tried to get him to run him in the JLT and he was kind of agreeing with me about the pace of the horse but wouldnt budge. I wonder reading between the lines if he's got one eye on the Trainers title and thinks the horse will win either race so if he can stop Santini winning then more chance of him winning the title. He absolutely loves the horse and Im tempted to back him for next years GC before he runs in the RSA.
