You are absolutely right ! I am saying I think they will make good chasers, but we won`t know for definite until they jump their first fences in public. Horses such as Pizarro & Made In Japan are in my opinion ones which should be reverted back to hurdles, as neither are as good over fences as what they were over hurdles.  A high class beast on good or better ground. If they are to go over fences i would imagine he will have to make his chase debut soon while the ground is ok, a couple of runs in Sept/Oct and then the 2 mile novice at Paddy Power meeting and put away for Arkle. He's a lovely looking horse who should be athletic enough to jump fences at speed but we wont know for sure until we see ourselves.

I wasn't pleased to see you coming up the hill last march i'm surprised your going chasing so soon, not so surprised faasel. If I owned the 3 you mention i would send brave inca chasing and keep the other two over hurdles.  It would be nice to see him at the power meeting on the sunday just as we did last year. I lumped on that day JIM and never had a moments worry, he certainly looked the part that day he was superb in paddock.
I was lucky that day i was intending laying it ,but if you remember harchibald had franked the form about 1/2 hour before by toying with macs joy and back in front at punchestown, harchibald had finished 25l behind accordian etoile at tipperary the time before, so i did a twirl at back it myself, if the irish race was after the cheltenham race i'd have done my money. Who are the perceived threats to Accordion Etoile??
Brave Inca will take a lot of beating if his jumping his up to scratch.Justified and The Railway Man are interesting from these shores as well.
