Looks like he may be a potential understudy if State Man or IEP not ready to run.
Willie has already mentioned they will both be split over the morgiana and hattons grace.
But if neither are ready then he or the owners may want to have a crack.
Makes sense in that regard anyhow.

Ashroe diamond in there too. And the durkan entries as well. It’s all starting. Can’t wait
 
One thing I did notice when watching the Mister Policeman win was that he didn't look very big at all

Let's hope he's not jumped like a table when schooling and that's why he's in there

Go take a look at his french runs, they were practically fences being french hurdles and he's jumped them with no bother at all.

I’m most interested in pied pipers performance in morgiana. 66/1 ew 3 places for champion hurdle may not look to shabby after race.
 
Seems to have some stamina does Lecky, pissed about at half the hurdles and kept looking around him. Bit of cajoling and he got up at the line. Not sure where his future lies but NHC might be an option. Didn't beat much today mind imo

Think it's safe to say lecky Watson has his own ideas about the game

Be amazed if he wins again this season. Would have to find a very weak race to do so as there was no way he was sticking his head out on the line there. Luckily his head bobbed at just the right time to get the decision.

Can't imagine Paul will be rushing back to ride him

Definitely looked a couple of slices short of a loaf that one

Exactly that, zero chance he takes up that option…

Can't believe how many people are flapping on the social media regarding this...

He's in there purely as a back up for the back up

IF State Man weren't ready in time for the race for whatever reason, and Impaire had some sort of niggle, then Willie won't want to be letting a grade 1 go by without his name on the trophy, simple as that.

I thought the same but wondered what kind of debate the subject would command of it did make parliament.
Until now no-one within government has considered punters and the complete silence of the sports governing body throughout the process shows a total lack of interest.
Let’s see…
