Midnight Gun looks as if he’ll be my main bet in Cambridgeshire if he goes there, but with that in mind, can’t be betting him just now for this

He’s not the only one catching the eye, and he makes the early shortlist, along with……

Arisaig
Galeron
Glen to Glen
Holloway Boy
Midnight Gun
Tribal Nation

…but 100% holding fire just now

Prague

A good run last time against what looked like a hot little race at Newmarket. Pulled like a train for a long way and only beaten 4 lengths or so despite being looked after towards the finish.

I was worried about his other entry on the card at first, but that looks a waste of time now given how it is shaping up. A bit of rain would be a right bonus also or some bloke to go OTT with the watering can.

A big price at 50/1 in a place currently and hopefully it is that kind of price on the day with 5 or 6 places on offer.

Looks like my shortlist is pretty long

WITCH HUNTER
GREEK ORDER
OLIVER SHOW
ORANDI
BOPEDRO
HICKORY

Obviously depends on ground and draw but will be betting some of these Thursday when 48 hour decs are out

Small Ew Bopedro 28s. Stayed on nicely at York last Friday.

[nwalton]

looks like 94 you just about get in, Bopedro sneaks in and some 94’s are just reserves

[Oscar]

Jamie Spencer seems to have ridden half the field in this and is on Arisaig for Charlie Johnston here. He’ll do me at 14-1 ew 4 on Ladbrokes.

[Nathan Hughes]

I went for one on each side of the draw

Witch Hunter 18’s
Holloway Boy 22’s

Gaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026

Mob handed in this.

Holloway Boy 20/1
Ebt’s Guard 18/1
Both Win only

Golden Mind 50/1 each way, 1st 6

[Mike007]

Crown Of Oaks ew 6 places

[Venture to Cognac]

Pleased to see Bopedro sneaking in. He’s my main hope tomorrow.

I’ll be Holloway Boy as the other one from the early shortlist, just hoping the draws not an issue with that pair. Not bet him yet though

Bopedro 25’s EW6Pls
Holloway Boy

[nwalton]

has two small ew bets (proofed on other thread yesterday)

Bopedro 22s
theoryofeverything at 40s

[Refuse To Bend]

Fifth Column 12-1.

The more I know the less I understand.

[Oscar]

Had to go in again on Arisaig at 18-1 ew 4 with Spencer riding with an inside draw

[He Didnt Like Ground]

Golden Mind for me

Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
