Tim Hailstone, one of The 6 Grangers, owner of Kaylif Aramis, said: "He was going to win the last twice, but then made a noise." "He'd a wind op after the Lanzarote, & it has looked like it has worked! He's only small & Coral Cup might be the race at @CheltenhamRaces"
 
Inis Meain going for something ..

It was a double for Mullins in the Connell colours after his victory on the Denis Hogan-trained Inis Meain in the Dunsany Handicap Hurdle.

Boylesports cut the 2-1 winner to 16-1 from 25-1 for the Pertemps Final at Cheltenham, although Hogan said the Coral Cup and Martin Pipe Conditional Jockeys' Hurdle will also be in the equation

5. Sadler's Risk (Henry de Bromhead)

Sadler's Risk is an interesting addition to the ranks at Henry de Bromhead's.

He was not beaten far behind subsequent Irish Derby winner Treasure Beach in the Chester Vase during his first spell with Mark Johnston, and he finished second in the Adonis Hurdle as a juvenile hurdler when with Philip Hobbs. Returned to Johnston, he finished second in the Shergar Cup Challenge at Ascot last August, but had been disappointing in three runs since on the flat before he joined de Bromhead.

His run in the Pertemps Qualifier at Punchestown on his first run for his current trainer was much more encouraging, when he stayed on well to finish seventh behind Jetson. That was his first run since last October, his first over hurdles since Aintree last April, and his debut for a new yard. He is entitled to come on appreciably for it.

He is obviously in the Pertemps, but he is also in the Coral Cup, and he may be of more interest in the latter contest. A fast-run two and a half miles could be his optimum. He is fairly handicapped on a mark of 145 - he was rated 150 in his pomp - and it would not be surprising if his astute new trainer could eke out a little more improvement.

Taken the 12/1 NRNB about Sure Reef - Mullins offered him up as one of his tips this evening
 
Yeah i took 16/1 on SR last week NRNB also. Looks extremely well treated. Bayan and Princely Player others to keep an eye on.

Far West also.

Still in Neptune and Bertie Bartlett I think.
 
I would be really keen on Rennetti if he went to the festival. Has grade 1 form behind the Tullow Tank in the Royal Bond and was travelling so well when he fell when he had Mazuri Cowboy and Real Steel well beaten. The latter went on to win a decent race at Leopardstown so hopefully he goes to the festival. He still has entries in the novice races but he looks to have a good handicap mark too..
 
Sure Reef removed from this I see. Ah well it was worth NRNB punt
 
You'd want a horse that's won 2m 2f at least. Run at least twice this season.

Going to take a punt on it being good ground

Timesremembered and Creepy two decent e/w prices and will cherish the likely conditions. 25/1 + 33/1
