Winnable race or at least one you can pick up good prize money in as the standard of horses in it over the last few years has dipped.

Has willie said anything about James Du Berlais recently?

Thought he ran a belter at punchestown and has a big chance in the marsh or novices chase

I was asking this the other day as there seem to be a massive move on him. Presumed it was from OJA or connections as he was 33/1 for Marsh with 365 I remember as I kept checking the price as was one I wanted to back. Pp had him at 25/1 too.
 
Was it a fence he was jumping?

Now iv actually watched the video that looks like a hurdle

Certainly not a proper fence anyway

Nope not a full on proper fence but Nicholls doesn't have them on his schooling yard and don't think many if any do. They have them on the gallops or in the field. To me that looks like an in-between hurdle and fence

Pentland Hills has a suspensory problem and is not currently with Nicky. Hopes for a spring campaign.

Worked the year he won the Triumph. Wasn't seen out over hurdles until February that season, so you never know!

Wonder what plans are for him when he is fit, any ideas?
