Horses that are going to miss Cheltenham thread

I predicted that he wouldn't show up for the Foxhunters at Cheltenham as soon as the talk of the Grand National were rumoured after his sale. That and he hasn't run since June.
I'm sure that Tammys Hill won't run as they are going for the Ulster National with him on 23rd march.
On The Fringe SP 2/1 I reckon.
 
Spot on Baracouda.
The Hollinwell, winner of 4 points this season for Eugene O Sullivan of Lovely Citizen fame could be a lively outsider in Foxhunters.
He seems to have a new lease of life since coming to Lombardstown by the Blackwater !
 
Bury Parade, Sam Winner and Many Clouds have all been taken out of the 3m hcap chase at Cheltenham on Tuesday.

Shutthefrontdoor taken out of the 3m hcap at the Festival but left in the four-miler at the 6-day stage

Anybody looking for a jockey in the Kim Muir could do a lot worse than having Eoin O'Sullivan in the saddle.

Out to 10.2 on Betfair a few minutes ago. That fall did not help his cause. Supposed to be very sore after it.
 
I wonder how the good /soft going will ride after a few dry days and how many N/R's will be announced because of it ? I expect some watering during the fez.
It wouldn't surprise me if a few high profile horses miss their engagements or run at the longer distance of those that they have been left in.

"Even if the going is good later in the week, it will still ride slow."
