Is this a common thing with the new 700 s ? <| sep |> They wouldn ' t need to prove anything to the court . They would just need to find a friendly judge , of which I ' m sure they have plenty . Once they get their foot in the door , it gives them more time . Not that they haven ' t been setting this up since the day of the election . <| sep |> 661669 rdate 20161126 # raceTabsscHi lads , Here my take on the fighting fifth tomorrow . Sceau Royal . Won both starts this year . Although arguably hasn ' t beaten an awful lot . Jumped tidy enough around a Cheltenham under no pressure . The one to beat on this seasons form but the step up in class might be a too much too soon . Petit Mouchoir . Look fantastic late last season winning at Aintree and Punchestown . A lot of positives to be taken from the latest run at Down Royal when 3 rd to Raashan with APPLES JADE back in second . With a more positive front running ride id expect PETIT MOUCHOIR to be there or there abouts . Apples Jade . One of the great prospects that Mullins lost in the Gigginstown removal from Mullins . Now with Gordon Elliot her first run this year was very disappointing . 2 nd to Raashan at Down Royal this is a big chance for the filly to get her self back in contention for a big season . With a 7 lb swing in her favour you ' d have to imagine that APPLES JADE would be close especially testing ground . Elliot recently said that she would win a lot of races by stepping up in trip . I assume they are giving her one more chance her over 2 miles . Wouldn ' t rule her out but a big test for the filly . Irving . Expensive to follow the last year or so . With just one run since this race last year he wouldn ' t be an obvious pick but yet again not ruled out . Given a positive ride he could run a big race bit this is a tough renewal of the race which will be run at a fast pace I imagine . IRVING might just be outpaced her . So with SCEAU ROYAL easing in the market and APPLES JADE and PETIT MOUCHOIR shortening i ' d be expecting a very close market on the day . My pick here will be PETIT MOUCHOIR . Given a positive ride at the front I think he ' ll have too much for an inexperienced SCEAU ROYAL and out of sorts APPLES JADE . PETIT MOUCHOIR TO WIN 114 .
