Will Mikael D'Haguenet make it to Cheltenham?

Question

Will Mikael D'Haguenet make it to Cheltenham? He’s a really good horse but you have to think that Willie Mullins made a mistake in not entering him for any of the hurdle races as a back-up to his entries for the Arkle and the RSA Chases.

Answer 1

He’s already run in chases when he was trained in France, so that’s not much of a problem but he hasn’t run since the beginning of May – and that’s a big worry. No surprise if Mullins doesn’t wait for next season.
