Slightly off the subject off Cocozza but this regards a potential gamble in my mind. Since transferring over to England from Aidan O'Brien, Robin Hood has plummeted down the handicap to a current mark of 74 from his last win in March 2012 in a handicap off 90. Has been campaigned over 10-12 furlongs since coming over the water and from my admittedly limited judgment seems to have been plodding on at the end of his races and posssibley a step up in trip will bring about improvement? He is entered in a Kempton handicap next Wednesday over 2m. Thoughts please? I'm particularly keen to know what Slim thinks after reading his thoughts on a past thread on this horse. Every dog has its day though doesn't it??

I'll make some enquiries. I was always of the opinion he war overrated after his maiden win in Galway but 74 and a step up in trip is intriguing.
 
Ye could be waiting a year plus for this one to be off knowing connections modus operandi. See the trainer's son is in a spot of bother over the Stoneacre Gareth gamble.
 
Runs tomorrow with J P Fahy riding, what do we know about him ?

Question, what does p1 mean beside a horse's weight ?
 
They'll probably front run it and get run over for another drop in the handicap.

Finished last and dropped 7lbs to a mark of 80. He is entered in Wolverhampton on Monday in a 66-85 handicap over 1m 4f with Jimmy Quinn booked to ride.

I would say its close to 60/40 that he's off.

It's over 1m 141y, 2f less than last run
 
33's available.

The yard has another interesting horse declared at Windsor called Royal Marskell who has shown ability in maidens but may be a few pounds too high on h'cap debut (mark of 68).

Looks some decent handicappers in that line up, Johnstones horse may be the bet
Is it not possible he is just a yak?
