Thanks for taking "one for the team" Whufc06.

Im puttimg up Tempo Chapter Two as a horse to watch in a couple of weeks time in Punchestown. He'll be running in a 2 mile hurdle. Dont know which yet. Carried the owner in my taxi and he expects it to win but i'll see what price he is before deciding what way to back him. At the moment hes with Murray, but hes switching him to Willie Mullins after Punchestown. The plan then is to run him over 1 mile 5 or 6 on the flat and then continue with Mullins into hurdling season. He has been off a long time with a back injury, but the owner says hes jumping out of his skin and better than before. Hes already won 2 bumpers, the first one after a disqualification that promoted him to 1st. Maybe someone here can check up on what hes told me, but it sounds promising

Not sure about this DJ. Racing Post report the horse has run twice in the last 6 weeks coming 5th of 8 and last of 11. The 2 wins were 2 years ago. Also, shows no current entries.

Looks like they're shooting a horse at the first - covers out so we don't get to see it live on TV .... survival of the fittest I guess.

What a spectacle.
