Your first paragraph sums up why I made him a bet in the OP for the other threads far better than i would’ve described.

WH have trimmed him in to 8/1 now.... you've got them running scared MoM
THis is a race where I definitely am not in my comfort zone. Salsify and On The Fridge have been kind but they didn't take a lot of finding :highly_amused:
I've watched as many of burning ambitions races as I can this morning and can defintiely see the case... I have no real way of understanding the PTP form but I like what I've seen!
I like Wonderful Charm.
He could be Paul Nicholls best chance of a festival winner.
Ran well last year.
My only concern is that The Dentist could be on board now that his father is a co owner.

The Dentist won a Gold CUp over C&D so that wouldn't be a negative really compared to plenty of the jockeys!
A cyclist was a jockey one year....
*******,,
Burning ambition is winning with something in hand, his form is not the strongest in what he's beat but its ok and hes doing it well. I missed the boat on his orive as only just started lolking at this race. Alot of the remainder ie two rockers are all beating each other in slightly more competative events.
Young hurricane would be a lively outsider.
And Sydney Paget seems to be a fair yardstick over in Ireland. For the likely big prices.

Has anybody heard anything about It Came To Pass for Jim Culloty? 2nd in a Point behind A Decent Excuse (who beat Venetian De Mai NTO) in his only run of the season so far, but I'd be interested in him for the Foxhunters again.
I was on him in 2016 at nice prices and he went off at 9s. You could see Brian Lenihan was sickened when he fell. He was travelling really well at that stage and he was solid in running in the betting, from what I can remember. He's still only 8, half bro to Lord Windermere and connections love a gamble! He had a prep run in February 2016 so something similar could be on the cards? No price available as of yet.

Recall culloty saying last year that it came to pass had lost his confidence Jumping fences after his fall at cheltenham the previous year
Could be interesting if they have nursed him back
The Foxhunters at the Dublin festival is usually a good guide
I expect Foxrock,On the fringe,Staker Wallace and a few others to run in this

Certainly had a high level of ability.
Interesting he's moved trainer... I had a look but can't see any significant Alan Fleming horses in the last 7 years in this race... although he has had some of the owners horses...
Mr M J O'Hare is an amatuer the trainer used recently... I know nothing about him...
Good horse but wouldn't fit the ideal profile for the winner.
Winners usually come from the PTP/Hunter codes and are often 9yo or younger.
A recent developing trend is for horses who were unplaced in the previous years renewal winning the following year so worth noting anything that is returning after a failed attempt last year.
Ignoring age Balnaslow could be that horse, and so could Ask the Weatherman....

Cracking knowledge that Ista... so also by that logic (ignoring age and placing lol) On the fringe, who lets not forget was a short price favourite last year (11/8 I think), finished 4th but was held up in the rear and in fairness stayed on a treat, must be considered. Billy Hill are currently 33/1!! Wow thats defo worth a blast

By the same token i'd put up Wonderful Charm. Think that one will have the edge over Pacha Du Polder this year and would reckon that it will be Bryony's chosen ride
Pretty sure ask the weatherman is being campaigned over shorter now.
Hills price about wonderful charm is very fair.
Robbante, looks like Robert Waley Cohen has bought a share of Wonderful Charm
Therefore,his son Sam will surely take the ride
Expect Bryony to ride pacha du polder
Good spot. Either way will probably be on Wonderful Charm to reverse the form, always thought him the classier horse of the two and a year younger may help

I’ve backed Burning Ambition, won well over Christmas and is due to have another run for experience, nice up and coming Hunter Chaser I think, also interesting John Magnier has put his name to the ownership as he’s not a bad judge of horses
