Afterwards relieved winning trainer Eoin Griffin stated “I was surprised he did that (jumped right) as he never did anything like that before; maybe he was getting a bit lonely in front and I don't think it is an issue.

“Hopefully things will go right for him during the season and while he'll stay at 2m4f for the time being, he could step up further in time. The Monksfield Hurdle in three weeks time is a possibility but we might wait a little longer.

“Today was a relief to get out of the way and he's a horse I hold in high regard and Davy (Russell) liked him too.”

Carrig Mor impressed me last week. I'm going to put him on my horses to follow section.

The day before saw the introduction of two interesting recruits to the hurdling division. Oscar Rock, a good bumper horse trained by Harry Fry last season, lashed up at Wetherby, while Carraig Mor, a winning Irish pointer, was equally impressive in hosing up at Uttoxeter. It’s hard to be certain about exactly what was achieved such was their ease of victory, but it’s fair to suggest we are talking a minimum of 140 for both, which means both look extremely exciting prospects.

Surely Briar Hill will head for this race? After yesterday he defo seems more of a stayer and that will free up Faugheen for the Neptune...

Hope you have that the wrong way around.:p
 
Haha do you have Faugheen for the AB and Briar Hill for the Neptune??
 
Hi RC.

Dont know how I missed that. Would have been nice to get a link from oddschecker to the blog or my @cheltenhamap twitter account but would be a bit rich of me to kick up a fuss considering amount of cutting and pasting I do. Hopefully bookies will be paying me !
 
That race Clondaw Court won yesterday was the same one Ballycasey landed last year before being backed into antepost favourtism for this race last year. Mullins comments would lead you to believe that he is near the top of pecking order at home. Also leaves Ricci with a runner in each of the 3 novice events. He has near favourite / clear favourite in the other two.
 
If that's the case that Clondaw Court goes for the AB, surely he'll just let Briar Hill go there too? He has Faugheen who looks tailored made for the Neptune and Vautour (if good enough) for the Supreme. I really don't think that Briar Hill will go for the Neptune so the only other place I can see him ending up is in the Supreme where he would replicate an apparent complete stayer with no pace and have no hope (Champagne Fever 2013....)

A bit of 40s on Betfair for Briar Hill in Supreme. Dont think Vautour has shown enough on track to say its totally settled.
 
Triolo Dalene eligible ? entered at Donny over Hurdles on Saturday as well as Argento
 
Both would be more Neptune horses I'd say RC. Especially Red Sherlock...
 
David Pipe's Kings Palace headlines 81 entries for the £120,000 Grade One Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle over three miles following two relentless front-running performances at Cheltenham this season.

Malcolm Jefferson has entered the highly-regarded pair of Oscar Rock and Urban Hymn, while Warwick Grade Two victor Deputy Dan (Oliver Sherwood) and Champagne West (Philip Hobbs) are also engaged.

Willie Mullins' 16 entries include Briar Hill, Faugheen and dual hurdle winner Clondaw Court. The Co Carlow handler has also entered Sure Reef, who got the better of Moonshine Lad (Gordon Elliott), Gilt Shadow (Stuart Crawford) and Wounded Warrior (Noel Meade) in a close finish to a Grade Two novice hurdle at Leopardstown on January 26.

Of Wounded Warrior, Meade commented: "Wounded Warrior is likely to go for the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle. He ran a nice race at Leopardstown at the weekend, but it was a very stop, start race and that didn't suit him at all.

"He will definitely be better over further and three miles won't be a problem."
