“I suspect that one of the factors in Fact To File not going there is the progress Inothewayurthinkin is making. He might well go off fav.”

I recognise your point but if he does go off favourite it will be ludicrous based on this season’s form. And it won’t say much for the others.

I am on him because if Cromwell and McManus are pulling a stunt, I want to profit from it at least! But I wonder if The Jukebox Man is still being underrated? He hasn’t had many starts over fences due to his novice season being curtailed and I reckon there is still plenty of scope for improvement.

I am not worried about his run in the Albert Bartlett. I don’t believe he failed through lack of stamina. Inexperience and being in front too long look like the more likely causes. And he has a far better jockey on his back now.

I will be backing him on the day.
