Footpad not a 2 miler, would imagine John Durkan next.
As do many novices racing at a trip short of their optimum.
My point is that he doesn't have the speed for 2 miles at the top level going forward.
Altior to miss the Shloer Chase this weekend and wait for the Tingle Creek
Tingler will be an intruiging race with Altior going up against a match-fit Saint Calvados.

Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done
Just saw the Tingle Creek betting
Altior shorter than I imagined and the other 2 horses both 5\1

Pat Keane tipped Ballyoisin at 33s for Champion Chase in yesterday's Irish Examiner -that price is still available tonight -I see him at 20/1 by the weekend.
The 2m chase at Leopardstown hopefully for him next time out

Great Field keeps his regular pilot and Geraghty is on Anibale

Altior is head and shoulders above everything else around.
Only lack of peak fitness or mishap stands in his way tomorrow. And in March.
Illegitimi non carborundum
Ballyoisin is interesting
Wonder if they pitch him in at Leop in either Xmas or Feb or tin pot him to March
Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done
He may be the only one left that might improve enough to make Altior sweat a bit
Formely Fist of Fury
Reading Geraghtys weekly ATR blog, he does ride some dross
Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done
Geraghty may get the ride next time. Might even be Mark Walsh if it's in Ireland

Surprised that the winner hasn't been mentioned here yet. I'd happily have him against Great Field in any contest anywhere from now on.
