Ultima Handicap Chase 2019

I have 6 I have whittled it down to, I think they hit the majority of the main trends required:

Talkischeap
Coo Star Sivola
Black Corton
The Worlds End
Mr Big Shot
Thomas Campbell.

I may have missed something, so feel free to weigh in. I am pretty sure they have all been mentioned by others at some point during the thread too, so not to want to steal anyone's thunder either but they are just the ones I have come up with.

I have a negative for Black Corton in that he is trained by PN, but I'm not having that he can't ready one for a handicap if they are good enough, because we know full well he can, albeit seemingly not at the festival!
 
COD,
Talkischeap likely to miss the festival???
 
interesting that Black Corton isn't in the Ryanair but understandable.

Ran a cracker against Top Notch over too short a distance LTO. Will have a fair weight should he go for a handicap but has that bit of class.
 
A.King has another horse Chosen Path that might be interesting if it turned up here??
 
I don't think The World's End is being aimed here COD.

I've backed Coo star 45-1 and thomas campbell 33-1

Not heard any trainer news about targets but have assumed Coo star will be back.
Thomas Campbell though ran in the dornan hurdle last time and is entered in pertemps qualifier at haydock saturday.
not sure if this is where he's heading or they're happy with his mark over fences and keeping options open.
If anyone knows anything it may help.

No?

Haven't backed any since Coo Star Sivola & Talkischeap, oh and stupidly Mister Whitaker, who probably won't run either, but all NRNB bar CSS anyway. Won't waste time of TWE if he isn't due to go here.

I'm trying to remember exactly what Max McNeill said but it was something along the lines that Chosen Path with be his horse for this. I'm almost 100% certain that he said RSA for TWE.

You lose nothing by backing NRNB though as plans do change, as we know.
 
Is Talkischeap not running? Been out of the loop whilst we’ve had a break from racing
 
Touched on Talk is cheap last week , if your a Weekender reader he keeps stating he thinks he's slightly better RH and plans a trip to Kempton this month i believe. Chosen Path seems the stable horse most likely to turn up here. Whether he is good enough to feature is another question.

Don't think Mr big shot will make it to the track again this season as he injured.

Frustrating horse he has become, seen him at Wetherby win a bumper absolute tank from a physical point of view. Even under donkey Pipe i thought he would become a good horse. Never may get the chance now:(

Ye is very frustrating for sure, I'm told he picked up the injury in his last race at Newbury think it was the 3rd or 4th fence he slipped into it before taking off(by all accounts they thought he was going to win that day and he was fairly well backed)
