Seems the rumours may be more than just rumours re Douvan..enough to force WPM out of the woodwork.

Bet365 have stuck Douvan back in the market NRNB at 7s.
WPM in today’s RP
“He had a small setback early in the season but has been in pre-training and is due back to us next week. Our main aim is to make Cheltenham with him, but he could possibly make an appearance at the Dublin Racing Festival at Leopardstown early next month if all is well.”
Alcohol, because no good story ever started with "I was eating this salad..."

Might not be the right race thread for this update, but FWIW, this is what Mullins had to say about Yorkhill today:
Mullins told the Irish Times: "I've no doubt he would stay (three miles) if he had a better temperament. He's bred to stay.
"But at the moment we're looking at shorter trips for him. I think his next run will be at a shorter trip over fences.
"I don't think he has to go left-handed. He'd be a lot easier to ride left-handed, but if we're stuck for opportunities we'll have to go right-handed.
"Over a shorter trip, going faster, he may not have a problem.

Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done
Will get bullied into submission if he encounters Great Field.

'I don't think he has to go left handed'
Come on man! It's like telling Messi to go in nets. Yes he can physically perform the task but you are inhibiting God given ability.

Not half as funny as Valdez, an 11yo who hasn't seen the track since 2014.
King is a complete muppet.
