Just had a look and noticed that Celtic Agent is in this. I was mightly impressed by the way he went about his business last time and think he must have a good chance.
Anybody any thoughts yet?
April 2, 2014 at 21:25 #474071Stable have been one of the more reliable ports of call in this field but I still suspect you will get a big price in this.
Can’t offer much originality I am afraid. Bringithomeminty was very impressive at Kempton and will be near enough favourite. If the ground dries to good it wouldn’t surprise me if Our Kaempfer ran well. Hopefully, there was a reason why he stopped to nothing at Cheltenham.
April 4, 2014 at 20:24 #474445Bet365 chalked up 7/1 Bringithomeminty and the fact that price is still available should tell you everything you need to know. If there was a chance of a quick surface tomorrow he would be half that price. If they get plenty of rain I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he was pulled.

It’s High Time
This rangy gelding has finished first and second in bumpers at Musselburgh and we have aimed him at this lucrative prize rather than startin him over hurdles this season"
April 5, 2014 at 22:35 #474729I think the Ferguson horse Aqalim could be the 1 to take from this race for next year,looked like he sweat up pretty badly before the race and drifted from 12/1 to 16/1,was up with the pace for most of the race and looked like he wouldn’t be in the first 6 with 2 furlongs to go but he stayed on very well for 3rd which,as a 4 year old against older animals is pretty impresive considering the stables horses aren’t always the toughest in a battle. I think over a trip next year he could be worth keeping an eye on.
