JLT Novices 2018

Dalko moriviere. Rathvinden. Bamako moriviere.
He's got plenty for the jlt
 
Painful on a personal note if he goes Arkle and not interested in him for this race as PM has him well and truly covered based on hurdles form.

Obviously still every chance he could end up in JLT despite what Willie says now, we've been here before with lots of his other horses.

Iv backed petit mouchoir well covered but hurdles and fences are a different proposition. Not that much between them. And PM may not even make it there atm. Hopefully he will though.

I'll cover him for the Arkle as a win bet only, purely because I have enough riding on PM & FO already. Still not convinced he won't run in this though.

Last season’s Champion Hurdle-fourth placer*Footpad*made a winning chase debut at Navan today, when making all for an impressive success in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Beginners Chase, for trainer*Willie Mullins*and jockey*Daryl Jacob.

Owner Simon Munir’s retained jockey Jacob made all on the son of Creachadoir as the gelding jumped well en route to his his comfortable win over race-fit Brelade.

Afterwards trainer Mullins said “it was a good performance; he is a very natural jumper at home and he did the same here. He's as good as novice as I've seen schooling at home and I thought it was a good performance for a first time out novice.

“I'd imagine we'll look at the Drinmore; the way he was going there I'd be happy to stick at two miles but the Drinmore is two-and-a-half so we'll look at that. He has no problem going two-and-a-half as he was a two-and-a-half mile hurdler.

“He is so well balanced jumping and is a complete natural.”

Paddy Power bookmaker later introduced*Footpad*at 16/1 for the Arkle Chase at Cheltenham.
 
Irish racing have quoted mullins completely different to at the races.

"We'll try to make an Arkle horse out of Footpad," says Willie Mullins of today's impressive Navan winner.
 
I know mr potts dosent care about the opposition in the Arkle, but I wonder if it will become obvious that they should go over 2 1/2 after Cheltenham on Friday. Henderson always targets this race so I expect William Henry will run on friday and the way he travels, finians should need to be ridden before he does,
the rest shouldn't be capable of challenging for the win.

I think even if it is obvious to most people, Finians Oscar will be in the Arkle

The JLT is bound to look stronger.

Footpad looked good, I was on at 16s any race and added 25s straight after the race for Arkle ... not here

Jacob won't be winning an Arkle though:devilish:

No small test for yanworth at Exeter tomorrow up against the exciting prix finot winner CHAMERON unbeaten so far over hurdles. I personally think Yanworth is top class especially over this trip, but chameron not to be under rated, on ratings he comes out best at the weights and he's certainly unexposed. Looking for another typical solid yanworth win here and hopefully he can put atleast a couple of lengths between them after the last.
