Harold Kirk is the man there Oddy. Willies agent, also helps with the training. He picks the horses at the sales purley by the way they walk, he doesn't care about seeing them trot around, he reckons everything is in seeing them walk and I certainly ain't going to argue with him
Certainly is. A lot could change with Willie over the Winter months but he sounded pretty adamant he was CH bound next season.
The beer is staring to take over so before I forget I have dropped a decent bet on the Jean Bishop horse Kings Walk in the Fontwell bumper. Very nicely bred by Kings Theatre out of a mare who has thrown a couple of bumper winners
He's going to have two thirds of the field lads. What's there to beat him? The Triumph hurdlers!? Max Dynamite is going to hack up in the next.
Nicky's Peace and Co could be special though, he looks very good but as a 5 year old it'll be tough next year for him. They've also mooted chasing for him, but I guess Mr Munir has Top Notch Tonto to consider too, so I'd expect him to split them.
Fair play to Nicky, 'there wasn't much point coming over here to his back yard after the pasting Willie give us all at Cheltenham' lol He'd have Barney choking on his post dinner brandy and soda hearing that!
He's only here for the craic beefy and the guinness!thats the jumps season done for me.cant watch annie power, still have nightmares about that fall last month
