Some of the stuff they come out with would have you wondering how they got their jobs :rolleyes:

Welds comments suggested that Lucky Pass bumper form may be the best this side of the sea going into the festival. But he's a giggy horse so he won't be on the boat

Did Mr Weld say anything about what race for Vigil at Cheltenham?

I've him in a few ew ante post for the Neptune.

Nothing other than there's nio guarantee he goes there,seemed more inclined to go Fairyhouse or P'town on first listen.

He said he'll see how he comes out of today. Mentioned he's difficult to keep sound. Also mentioned fairy/punch festivals as options. Didn't really give anything away (doubt he's decided himself). Gave a shout for first figaro in bumper - said he has to have good ground.

This handicap chase is interesting at Naas, the top few could be going to Cheltenham. I'd say Captain Von Trappe and Walk To Freedom are guaranteed their run so i don't think they'll be winning,similar probably applies to Marlbrook who'll get an extra lb or 2 for his colours on top of the complimentary few lb for an Irish horse so he'll be likely out for a spin.

Mr Diablo could probably do with the win and there's one at the bottom i like Vicangelome who's progressing nicely and seems to be winning easier than margins suggest. Could go well with not every horse likely to be all out for the win.

He's gone blue for both Supreme and Neptune on oddschecker.

I hope its the Neptune he goes for. I'm really sweet on his other horse Silver Concorde in the Supreme so hoping he keeps them apart.

Walk to freedom a NR so he'll not be winning.
