To be clear, I'm not talking about owners micro-managing a horse's season and interfering in the trainer's placing of a horse. But an owner is perfectly entitled to nominate the race at which he wants his horse aimed as the centrepiece of his campaign. O'Leary should make it quite clear that he wants Apple's Jade, as a viable Champion Hurdle contender, to go for that race and not for something that by comparison pales into insignificance.
