I've no clue what they will do with him mate

If he wasn't injury prone, I'd say he was an absolute cert to be chasing, but now the injuries probably push it the other way and I'd be slightly leaning towards him staying hurdling. It's much easier to keep a horse sound over hurdles

With that being said, I have been nibbling some small bits on Mundi for the Arkle on Betfair. Whatever way Anzadam goes, I expect Mundi will do the opposite
Do you think Mundi will head towards Cheltenham? Was it Patrick Mullins who said Cheltenham didn't suit him? Thought I had read that, doesn't mean he couldn't find though. Kitzbuhel looks like he will be campaigned as a BANC horse too is imagine after them stepping him up in trip pretty early last season.

I've been going through the Donnelly horses 😀

I don't see why he wouldn't. Not something I've thought about a great deal though, and Patricks word means nothing to me personally.

Tried to add a picture of Kitzbuhel in his stable today but didn't work..
 
Will just stick this in here as no race threads yet:

Rocky's Diamond is entered for a Beginners Chase at Galway 08.09.2025.

I know some had queried his target for the coming season.
 
L.T.R. back on Youtube , for those interested .. (y).
 
And so it begins .. again . Horses being cut in price following Racing Podcasts ..
At least we know the Jumps Season is not that far away now ... :) ..
 
Just been doing some research for Woodbine on Sunday. Free parking and free admission to all parts of the track except the better restaurants. Looking forward to see the price of a beer now.
Just googled Woodbine Racing .. look's like plenty of choices there Somer .
But I reckon , I can see you Living it Large on the " Stella Artois Terrace " ....(y)(y):) .
 
Probably a daft question, but does anybody know if it's possible to order the pdf version of One Jump Ahead? I'd prefer it to the paper version but can't see a way to order it on the site.

Last year when I got mine from WH Smith I got a hard copy and a pdf which I could download on about 4 devices. I have ordered it direct from Mark this year though so not sure if that's the case with him.

A very generous board member sent me a pdf version last year before it came out so it's definitely out there

I ordered my book as soon as it was available last year but others had the book before me. Dropped Mark an email asking about my book and got the pdf sent to me while waiting for it.

Email asking for the PDF instead of the book with your order details, he'll sort it for you.

Oh dear, I backed him straight after the stayers in March for the stayers again 😥

I’ve been getting the Paul Ferguson equivalent for the past few years, any idea on how the two compare? I’ve always found Paul’s pretty decent

Last year, Paul pretty much gave it all away for free on The Final Furlong podcast. Never bought his but OJA is packed with info from various sources. I buy the Timeform one too. Nowhere near as good as OJA but it's good in its own right, and you can never have too much literature when it comes to what us lot are trying to do :D
 
"There seems to be a vacancy in the Champion Hurdle and it's well over 50% we go that way,so I'd say it's currently the plan". Barry talking about William Munny. The 50/1 has gone (so has the cash out in the Arkle) top price of 25's now.

Not completely convinced by any means but chanced a Tuesday related double with Kopek for the Arkle. 181/1.

Is this the old quote from a couple of months ago?
