    Morning, morning.

    I did somewhat 'big' up that Warwick Pertemps Qualifier, last Thursday, but I thought it ended up a pretty poor renewal. The defections of both Sire du Berlais and The Bomber Liston weakened it and personally, I'd be very surprised if once more (has done in 2 out of the last 3 seasons) it supplied the Series winner come the Festival.

    But the one to take out of the weekend's racing in my opinion has to be Mr Incredible. This one could, perhaps, have star potential. His recent form resembled that of a difficult round on 'Countdown' but he stayed on in most eyecatching style in the 'Warwick Classic'. If his run over that stamina sapping trip was meant to be a Grand National trial then, I'd say, the 7YO passed it with flying colours. Moving forward is a hugely interesting horse, methinks. I'd go as far as saying that if WP of the Mullins can keep Mr Incredible 'right' (both physically and mentally) then he could prove some horse over marathon trips for several terms to come.

    Good luck to the crew.

    Agree with that but also a hell of a performance from the winner too on first appearance in over a year. Fair play to the trainer for having him fit and ready to go in that ground. Not sure where he’ll go from here but he’ll surely be lumping a weighty burden in future.

    Greenrock abbey should have to much in the first at Hereford and 5/2 looks fair in what looks like a race with not much competition .

    Sorry, yes, Incredible not Invincible. Although so impressed was I by Saturday's run that he may indeed prove invincible...
