We have had quite a blow this morning when it appears that Palladium had got cast overnight and is quite sore this morning and we really can’t see how he can be fit to run in the JCB Triumph Hurdle.
This is dreadful news and an unfair shock for the Bamford family as we seriously thought we had an outstanding chance on Friday.
We are confident he will soon be able to resume training but he will require a few easy days. He would be back in time for Aintree but I think in all probability he will now return to his flat career. He is a very good looking and talented young horse with a great temperament and he has a really bright future under both codes.

✅️ THE WALLPARK runs in the Stayers Hurdle, per Gordon Elliott on @RInsideTracktv.
"He hasn't done much wrong this year at all. He was very good at Ascot, I loved the way he hit the line. I think the track and the Stayers Hurdle will really suit him."
UK trainers boycott the Irish National worth £500,000.
Yes, the very same guys - Daly, Newland and Co- who cant cope with the Irish running in England 😢.
I have no sympathy whatsoever. If anything needs changing its the attitude of UK trainers.
