Roche rules out Hyde

TRAINER Christy Roche has ruled No Where To Hyde out of the totesport Trophy at Newbury as he feels the horse has been harshly treated by the handicapper.

The JP McManus-owned gelding had been installed favourite at around 8-1 with some bookmakers following the publication of the weights after he had run a fine race to finish second in the Pierse Hurdle at Leopardstown.

“We had planned on going and I don’t want to overreact but I feel we are not welcome,” said Roche.
