Peter Bowen is eyeing the December 6 feature as a likely starting point with the Crabbie's Grand National the plan if he takes to the unique fences.

The nine-year-old demonstrated his staying credentials with victory in the Scottish National in April, springing a 40-1 shock as he held off the 2013 victor Godsmejudge by a length and a half.

Bowen said: "He's going well and he'll probably have a spin around the National fences in the Becher Chase next month.

"The plan is to go for that race and then we'll see if he takes to the fences.

"If he does, we'll probably then give him a break and maybe have a run over hurdles before going for the National.

"I think he should like the fences, he jumps and he showed he stays at Ayr.

"He's done well over the summer and is back in full work with us."

Katherine Schmidt and Samantha Kraus Named SEC Riders of the Month Gamecocks sweep hunt seat awards for October Nov. 5, 2014 South Carolina senior Katherine Schmidt was named SEC Rider of the Month in equitation over fences for the month of October. In the Oct. 31 win over Texas A&M, Schmidt posted a career-high score of 93.

COLUMBIA, S.C. - University of South Carolina senior Katherine Schmidt (equitation over fences) and junior Samantha Kraus (equitation on the flat) were both named SEC Riders of the Month for October, it was announced today. This is Schmidt's fourth career SEC Rider of the Month honor, while Kraus received the conference award for the first time.

Because the conference does not award a Rider of the Month for September, riders' individual statistics were counted for October.

In equitation over fences, Schmidt went 4-0 in September and October with two MVPs to earn her fourth career SEC Rider of the Month award. Schmidt went 3-0 in the jumping against SEC opponents, and posted back-to-back scores above 90 for the first time in her career.

In equitation on the flat, Kraus went 4-0 in September and October with one MVP, giving her the team's best flat record this season. She won her first career flat MVP against No. 1 Georgia on Oct. 3, posting an event-high score (84) to win her point.

South Carolina returns to action on Friday, when the Gamecocks travel to face Fresno State. Friday's meet against the Bulldogs will begin at 4 p.m. ET and will be streamed live on the Mountain West Network. Fans can watch the meet live for free online.

In a few days, China will host the annual APEC meeting in Beijing. It will be the first for President Obama since his second-term inauguration; more important, it might also present the best opportunity yet for the leaders of China and Japan to move beyond the disputes that have been poisoning bilateral relations since a territorial dispute over islands in the East China Sea flared up in 2012. Chinese officials wont say whether President Xi Jinping will have a substantial meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. The official Xinhua news agency on Nov. 3 published a commentary explaining that people shouldnt raise their hopes too high. Certainly, China will undoubtedly receive the Japanese leader with etiquette and hospitality, according to Xinhua, despite chronic territorial rows and historical feud with Tokyo. China has plenty of grievances with Abe, as the commentary complained about the latest visits by officials to the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo:

China and South Korea, suffering from huge civilian casualties and economic losses due to Japans invasion, were also alarmed by Abes dangerous efforts to increase military buildup, lift restrictions on overseas battling and reinterpret the war-renouncing constitution. In short, it seems nothing more than a mere clumsy political stunt for the island country to advocate dialogue and fence-mending with neighbors on the one hand, while sticking to the bigoted course of fomenting strife and misgivings on the other.

Still, there are signs that China is interested in turning down the volume on its anti-Abe diatribes. Consider the commentary published in, of all places, the Global Times, the Peoples Daily-affiliated tabloid known for its nationalism. Its not reasonable for Chinese to get too worried about the revival of a militaristic Japan, explained Wang Zhanyang, a professor at the Central Institute of Socialism. Avoid suffering from imaginary fears, Wang advised:

With a democratic system, Japans politics, diplomacy and defense are mainly decided by its economy, middle-class society and culture. Japanese leaders cannot act independently of these. As all these decisive factors are mostly pacifist, Japan is likely to stay on the path of peace. The international situation has to be viewed appropriately. We need to realize that rationally China doesnt face the risk of invasion and civilization is moving toward peace. Only with such understanding and confidence can we avoid overreaction, and in particular a deviation from Chinas focus on economic development.

Sure, its possible to dismiss the Global Times commentary as just part of Chinas attempt to be a good host for the APEC leaders, but there are other signs of progress in Sino-Japanese ties. Last week, Vice President Li Yuanchao met with a delegation led by Keiji Yamada, governor of Kyoto Prefecture and president of Japans National Governors Association. Chinas defense ministry also said the two sides were talking about resuming cooperation on maritime affairs in the East China Sea, Xinhua reported.

With the Chinese economy slowing down, Xi and others in the leadership may genuinely be looking for ways to reduce tensions that could hurt growth at a sensitive time. The estrangement serves the interests of neither side, and a rapprochement is long overdue, Xinhuas commentary said. Still, the Chinese seem to be waiting for the Japanese to make the next move. Thus it would be highly pitiful for Abe to miss the enticing opportunity presented by the APEC gathering to improve China-Japan relations.

Is China Trying to Mend Fences With Japan?

NEW YORK -- Whatever the outcome of the Mets' decision to move in the fences at Citi Field will eventually be, Curtis Granderson is not ready to say it will be a boon for him or his teammates.

The Mets began another refurbishment of their ballpark last month as they move the walls in right-center field and right field closer to home plate. The new dimensions of the park are not yet know but they should be beneficial to left-handed hitters like Granderson, at least in theory.

Granderson, however, will see how the renovated park plays first.

"I think it's going to be one of those things where we're still going to have to wait and see," Granderson said, speaking at the New York Public Library where he was marking the partnership between the Mets and Citi and a $138,000 donation made by the bank.

"There weren't a lot of balls where I was like man that one would have gone out if it was in a different stadium. Because there was definitely some that would have gone out in any stadium. Whether that's us hitting them or the other team hitting them."

Granderson is thought to be a primary beneficiary of the new fences. General manager Sandy Alderson said in September that he believed the old contours had cost Granderson seven home runs that he would have netted with closer fences.

Yet, Granderson believes that the park was fair to him in 2014.

He does not know yet where the new walls will stand, having only seen preliminary photos on social media like everyone else. Instead, he imagines, that unless it's a much more drastic change, then the move won't have great ripple effects.

"Anytime you get a chance to see something that's smaller the chances of you succeeding or hitting the ball out of the ballpark obviously go up," Granderson said. "At the same time you still got to hit, you still got to drive it. Unless they bring them in below 300 feet that's the only time you're going to be like 'Wow, this is going to be a definite advantage for everybody'."

Updated: Monday, 03 Nov 2014 12:47 | Comments The Tullow Tank is the big attraction at Fairyhouse on Tuesday

The Tullow Tank is the star attraction at Fairyhouse as he makes his debut over fences in the Fairyhouse Membership 2015 On Sale Now Beginners Chase.

Formerly in the care of Philip Fenton, the six-year-old landed the Royal Bond at this venue before enhancing his reputation with another top-flight success at Leopardstown's Christmas meeting.

A subsequent defeat at the hands of Vautour did little harm to his impressive CV and given he has always looked a chaser in the making, his new trainer Dessie Hughes will be hoping he can take high rank in the novice division.

Hughes looks to have another leading chance in the opening I.N.H Stallion Owners EBF Novice Hurdle (12.55) with Sheamus, a well-backed winner over this course and distance last month and seemingly on a steep upward curve, having landed a quickfire bumper double previously.

He won't have things all his own way, however, with Time For A Pint taking the eye on his return, and he impressed when winning over 2m here back in May. Cillian's Return takes a marked drop in class and is also respected.

A big run from the Noel Meade-trained hurdling debutant Wildebeest would not surprise in the Book Online At Fairyhouse.ie Maiden Hurdle, where Marys Choice makes her first start over timber following a narrow defeat at the hands of Meade's Snow Falcon in a bumper here.

Progressive chaser Foritsa could be worth sticking with now reverting to hurdles off a significantly lower mark in the Book Your Christmas Party At Fairyhouse December 20th Handicap Hurdle, while there should be plenty more to come from lightly-raced Tipperary winner Better B Quick in the Sponsor A Race At Fairyhouse Call 018256167 Handicap Chase.

The Your Club's Fundraiser At Fairyhouse, Enquire Today Beginners Chase sees dual hurdle winner King Leon tackling fences for the first time, but he takes on promising Limerick maiden hurdle winner Lord Adare, who could have a bright future in this code.

Tullow Tank to roll out at Fairyhouse

A few weeks ago I banged out a half dozen tweets (twitter rant) after seeing 2 near pedestrian vs car accidents within a quarter mile of each other. The victim in each case, a CMS Middle School student trying to cross speeding traffic on South Charlotte's Pineville - Matthews Road (Highway 51 to Native Charloteans).

Main stream media types fail to take notice of such things, unless of course there is the dead body of a 14 year old lying in the road.

Case in point, Park Road where there were no crosswalks or signals until a South Meck freshman was struck and killed while trying to cross the street several years ago.

Even though main stream media types including WCNC's Dianna Rugg blew it off my direct appeal as not newsworthy, South Charlotte Weekly's Ryan Pitkin saw the need to spotlight my concerns.

His in depth look at the situation follows in part here:

Students At A Crossroad

Ryan Pitkin October 31, 2014

Five middle-school-aged children and three adults peer down Pineville-Matthews Road as westbound traffic barrels by at 50 miles per hour. Its nearing 4 p.m. and traffic levels are starting to increase.

(Note: on the afternoon CP saw two students nearly hit while trying to cross highway 51 they were on their own, with no parents in sight.)
