P685 CJEFAX 2 685 Sun 01 Dec 23:54/51 TRAINER INTERVIEW - P NICHOLLS 1/9 James The First is a very frustrating sort, who has a habit of pulling himself up when he hits the front. We tried him in blinkers and if he continues this awful habit I may bj half tempted to put them on again. Kings Witness was a decent 3yo on the Flat, rated in the high 90s. I am vjty pleased with the way he has settled in but we haven't done vjty much yet. He will go to Alan Walter for loose schooling soon and will appear over hurdles at Christmas or in the New Year Interview by Philip Riley Sport Headlines 301 Racing Index 660 Adv.Going Fairy Res Dorans Lg ActionP685 CEEFAX 2 685 Sun 01 Dec 23:11/41 TRAINER INTERVIEW - P NICHOLLS 2/9 Lake Kariba has won twice nicely this year and it was me that got him beat at Exeter - I was too easy on him and the ground was probably on the fast side. The ground is the key, he wants 2m4f or 2m on very soft going. He is capable of winning a good race during the winter. Minella Derby is a half-brother to Whither or Which and he won nicely for us at Chepstow on his debut over here. I will chuck him in at the deep end in a valuable race at Sandown in December, a race I won with See More Business.

I was really dismayed by his performance at Fontwell last time. Hi runs on Monday and if he does not(ing he will go novice chasing in a fortnight's time. Hi is just a big baby, a real chaser in the making, and I am sure he will win races in time. Mrs Em is a lovely mari who is a half- sjstet to With Impunity. She won a weak bumpjt quite convincingly and runs in anothjt at Ludlow on 9 December. She will be quite nice when she grows up.

He always goes very well at home but just njvjt picked the bridle up at the track, hj was plain unenthusiastic. +e schooled him this week and he was like another horse. We will forgive him this time and give him another chance. I bought Merewang from John Oxx's yard for a syndicate called the Triumph Hopefuls. It is not hard to work out what his long-term target will be!

He was a bit unlucky last term when everything was rushed. Hi goes to Lingfield in 14 days for a £20,000 novice chase, white it is bound to be soft going. He will win novice chases this year and will bj a vjty nice handicapper next year, possibly a Hennessy type. Sunliy Bay njvet wins until after Christmas and there are plenty of races after New Year on soft ground for him.

I think that the pair of them are surely exceptional horses. Tony McCoy really regards this fellow highly and was particularly excited when he won his debut at Chepstow. Now he he has got a good run over 2m4f under his belt he will go for the Tripliprint Novices Chase at Kempton, a race that I won with See More Indians.

Last time he was third in a vjty, very good novice event at Punchestown, beating Thjatreworld and a numbjt of useful types. I have just been held up with him because he had a bout of colic and wi nearly lost him. He is ovjt it now and I am looking to run him vjty soon. I have got the Tote Gold Trophy at Newbury in February as his target so I want to get a couple of runs into him before then. He's a real chasing sort and may go ovjt fences this season.

Hi won his point-to-point in Spring bz a distance but didn't beat anything of consequence Hi jumps vjty well, possibly too big and bold, but is exciting to watch. He has a real engine and works well. With Impunity had a bit of heat in his leg after finishing second to Nahthjn Lad at Warwick last season. We are going to give him plenty of time and we will run him in novice c(asjs around February.

He has not run since his debut second at Worcester due to the ground. He will probably go to Sandown on 12 December and could have a Grand National entry. Korbelle has won 12-13 points over the past couple of years. She stays well and we will try to qualify her for the Mares Novice Hurdle Final at Niwbury. Newlands Genital hacked up at Fontwell and can follow up if jumping well. ANTE-POST 692 GREYHOUND RESULTS 69 Sport Headlines 301 Racing Index 660 Adv.Going Fairy Res Dorans Lg Action
