this week's entries

Joe Dadancer is in my tracker - hopefully Pauling has a decent horse to go to war with over the next few seasons.

He's an interesting one for sure. My main issue is the trainer, is he likely to aim him at softer targets than roll the dice at the fesitval?

He's 25's for any race with Hills, which I think is plenty fair enough.

Charlie Hall is a cracker with BMG, Ahoy and Eldorado Allen all turning up.

Odd that in the latest Mullins stable tour he said Allaho might get an entry in the Charlie Hall???!!!
How old are these tour statements??

Fantastic news. What a race. Ahoy to jump them silly for me. Really looking forward to watching it.

I don't think he will be a horse for Cheltenham but could win some softer novice hurdles and chases over the next 2 years.

Has Pauling ever had a Chelt Festival winner?

Not this week but Might I has an early entry in the greatwood handicap hurdle over 2 miles. Doesn't scream Stayers hurdle really, although I'm not as clued up as others on the potential path to being a Stayers hurdle candidate. Any thoughts from people who have also backed him?
 
Off to Wetherby on Saturday looking forward to it. Used to go to Cheltenham open meeting but Wetherby bit more closer to travel.

I'd expect him to not be declared and head to Haydock unless they think his handicap mark is still workable over 2m. Decent pot to win.

Joe Dadancer entered in a novice hurdle at Wetherby on Saturday. He was 11 lengths clear when falling at the last fence in his only P2P race. The third horse in the P2P race, Snake Roll has since joined Lucinda Russell and posted a debut RPR of 126 when winning his maiden hurdle at Kelso by an eased down 15l.

Bear Ghylls entered Sunday at Carlisle along with Jonjo's Iron Bridge.

Finally one of Nicholls' horses to follow; a 3 Y-O sourced from France called Blueking D'Oroux. Entered at Huntington on Sunday.

…Joe Dadancer 40-1 with Sky to win tomorrow & a/r.

Going by Elliott yesterday, American Mike likely to be entered up in both hurdle races. Am I right in thinking that's the Friday race - Usually Albertt Bartlett and the Saturday - likely Ballymore start off. I was aiming more towards Ballymore with him after stable tours but if declared for the Friday Bartlett could be the one! Melt!

Also think he says has a couple others could go to either race, these been mentioned anywhere who could be?

The other couple I’m keeping an eye on are Irish Point and Absolute Notions. The latter bought by Robcour after a decent bumper win. Irish Point Grade 1 winner on the flat in France.

The entries this week will be interesting indeed.
