Squouateur

He's done nothing wrong this year. He's won at Leopardstown, Fairyhouse and obviously he's an improving horse for JP McManus. He's in the Coral Cup and the Martin Pipe. I think the Martin Pipe would suit him with Jack Kennedy riding him, but obviously they have so many horses they'll have to weigh everything up. They might want to keep him for Aintree, Fairyhouse or Punchestown, but I'd love to go to the Martin Pipe with him.
 
Eshtiaal

He won three or four for us last year and he won at York on the Flat. We took him to America and he was second in the American Grand National. I've given him a nice break and he's working very very well at home. I think he'll be going to the Martin Pipe with Luke Dempsey riding him. If the ground is good he goes there with an each-way chance.
 
Westend Star

With him we're leaning more towards the Martin Pipe than the Coral Cup. We'll see what he's handicapped. He's done nothing wrong, he got beat in a Grade 2, the ground was horrible and gluey and he hated it, never went a yard, and did well to finish where he finished. Young Jack Kennedy rode him at Down Royal and he never missed a beat, and then Barry rode him at Thurles and he just said when he was out on his own he was very lacsidaisical, where as when he came inside horses he winged them, so I'm not really worried about his jumping.

Squouateur

Squouateur put up another impressive performance to win the two-and-a-half-mile handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse on Saturday. Always travelling well in mid-division, rider Mark Walsh was intent on holding onto him for as long as he could. He made nice ground from the fourth last flight, jumped the third last well and looked the likely winner on the run to the second last. A mistake at that flight halted his momentum a little, but he picked up again to hit the front on the run to the final flight, and he stayed on well up the run-in to win nicely.

This was Gordon Elliott’s horse’s second win on the bounce, and it was his third in just five runs over hurdles. He had been impressive in winning on the final day of Leopardstown’s Christmas Festival on his previous run, stepped up to two and a half miles for the first time. Raised 8lb for that, he was at least as impressive on Sunday, again over two and a half miles on heavy ground.

Another 9lb hike brings him up to a mark of 137, which is high enough, but it should also get him into the top handicap hurdles now, which is where he belongs. He obviously goes well on this heavy ground, but he won his maiden at Fairyhouse last November on yielding ground over two miles. It appears that he does not really impress at home, but he does impress on the racecourse. He is only five and he can continue to progress. He is entered in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham, but he would be more interesting in the Martin Pipe Hurdle or the Coral Cup, given that both races are run over around two and a half miles. If he went in the former, he would probably be ridden by Jack Kennedy, and that would be another positive.

Mr Mix

Mr Mix ran a cracker to finish a close second to Yala Enki in the two-and-a-half-mile novices’ hurdle at Ascot on Saturday.

Keener than ideal through the early stages of the race behind habitual front-runner Yala Enki, Paul Nicholls’ horse travelled well into the home straight, and looked a real threat to the favourite. However, his early exertions probably took their toll from the last flight, and that, together with Yala Enki’s proven tenacity, was just enough to see Venetia Williams’ horse home.

This was still a fine performance by the runner-up. Yala Enki is a tough and talented rival, the Lanzarote Hurdle winner and fully deserving of his rating of 142, and Mr Mix ran him close with the pair of them finishing ahead of Aloomomo and Premier Bond. Also, the winning time was good, over a second faster than Different Gravey clocked in winning the handicap later on the card. Different Gravey is talented, and he was being talked of as a possible World Hurdle contender.

This was just Mr Mix’s fifth run over hurdles, and just his fourth in Britain. He has progressed with each run, and he should continue to progress as he learns to settle better. The handicapper raised him just 3lb to a mark of 138, and that is fair. He is a chaser in the making, but he will be of interest in a handicap off that mark, or back in another similar novices’ contest.

Whats the score with this Burgas then? I had this down as Mullins' next potential Gold Cup horse to mop this up but noticed it was handed 10-4. Surely that has to be the handicapper sticking two fingers up to a Mullins' plot horse? It breezed up in a maiden hurdle for connections including Cooper / Mullins / Giggi. How has it only been weighted as a 125 type?

That also begs the question of why has Mullins got it out today like this. If i'm right, even a 5lb penalty won't get it in the Martin Pipe but Cooper is on it today rather than the other 135 rated Giggi. Is it set up as Mullins response to the handicapper by having it beat a 135 type to make a mockery of the mark? Even more extreme (and highly unlikely), is it about to try and land 2 winning penalties in time for the 18th and get it in like a 135 horse should do? Not entirely sure if it even works like that but it's interesting!
 
Welcome to the board Ben.

Trying to figure out Phil Smith and Willie Mullins will drive you to the madhouse. I thought Royal Caviar was another that could be looking for a penalty. He is rated 131 so might scrape into the County with an extra 5.
 
Can anyone list the potential WM horses for this race?
 
Barry's spoilt the party big time there! Had 130/1 in my betfair slip ready to go on Royal caviar county. Would have sneaked in bottom weight and well treated with a 5lbs rise for that win had he done so! Probably would have ended up the shortest priced fav of the race ever given connections and circumstances like that. Grrr.

This race still looks like a mine field. Defo a trend follower to make the selection less headache.
 
My main bet tomorrow is Childrens List for this race.
