    Love this horse but he'll need to jump better than he did at Leopardstown. I think he might be a play IR

    That's what Tony Mullins reported at a preview night.

    Thinks it's the O'Leary's call thing the shots and not Willie. He wouldn't have made up his mind until 5 minutes before final decs!

    It's Very Wood I'm surprised at mate. Meade definitely wanted the NH chase.

    Yeah, I had Very Wood down for the 4 miler as well. Can't stand O'Leary. I feel dirty every time I back one of his. Arrogant pr1ck.

    Mullins wanted Vautour - JLT, Valseur Lido - RSA and Don Poli - NH. He said so on the RP site.

    I don't think this was just O'Leary. I reckon a certain B Cooper was the key person here. Both he and Patrick Mullins know the horse is a machine.

    I for one am delighted Don Poli goes RSA, cos if he hadn't my AP portfolio would have been knackered!!

    They want Thunder and Roses to win for Sandra Hughes; the stable think he is ready made for the race; gallops all day.

    Gutted about Very Wood not in the 4 Miler... Really thought I was on the gravy train there with a lovely Ante Post position.
    I assume Nina will ride Wounded Warrior. Who'll be on T & R do we know?

    Is WW in four miler then?

    delighted to see good horses not being sent done marathon route
    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done

    I wanted to back WW in the RSA. He was a great price for the four miler up to this week

    Don't think even B cooper was the key person in the very wood decision.
    He gave very wood in the 4M as his €250 nap charity bet only last Wednesday.
