    Put a bit more on Shady Operator at 9’s NRNB. I don’t think there’s a standout this year, and I thought him as good as anything.

    Back to square one. I managed to lay off Champagne Classic stake, and Shady Operator was NRNB thankfully.

    Good luck James, with Some Neck. Course experience vital, and I missed him, and that nice 25’s.

    I’ll probably spend the whole race watching Tiger Roll, so was going to sit it out, but I’ll go with Out Sam here, and hope that he can nick fourth.

    Had some crazy bets in this the last few years, this will be a little more sedate.

    I’d gladly give up Out Sam for a Tiger win, but I can’t be confident.

    I’ve got a feeling Tiger Roll will be bouncing tomorrow. I don’t believe his two runs this season are a true reflection of his current ability and with no hidden agendas I think he could look serious value at 5/1. Unless the owners have one eye on next year’s National, I can’t see him not performing.

    Had to have a good chuckle at Matt Chapman’s perfect dig there. Well done Tiger Roll, think he liked the drying ground.

    Maybe the O’Learys meant his mark was “unfair” as he was rated far too low? :wacko:

    They should name either this race or the national hunt chase after him

    Yeah istabraq, once he realised he couldnt get his mark down for the national and withdrew himself, he decided he best try again in this.

    Lol

    He tanked through his prep race before getting tired on the bottomless ground and essentially allowed to trot home

    Would i have tipped the horse definitely not, did I have a few sentimental pounds on him il neither confirm nor deny :whistle:
