Not convinced that this will be the plan, and he’s more interesting for a few races in April, but I’ll stick with Sam Brown as usual.
His record here, including in this race isn’t great, but I’ll stick with him in this.
He’s best priced 12’s just now, but although popular just now, I think there has to be a chance of getting bigger tomorrow.
As I said, more interesting for the spring, but I’ll go with him again.
Sam Brown 12’s
Lol. As soon as I saw who opened this thread, I knew who the selection would be.
You’re getting predictable in your old age, VTC!
May be 13 years old, but no sign of Sam Brown being on the downgrade yet. I’m with you, VTC.
In fact I rarely bet to win as much as I have done with him. Took all prices from 16/1 down to 13.5/1. imo has a 10% fair 9/1 chance of winning. Just hope there’s a sound pace, as many of his rivals aren’t sure to get home. His Charlie Hall form or even the Veterans Final form might be good enough to win a poor renewal.Have also taken 4/1 about Djelo. Agree with Ruby, at the time of his disappointing second at Windsor the stable were struggling for form. Better again now. Do think he was greatly flattered by Huntingdon – Protektorat and Ginny’s Destiny both unsuited by going right-handed. However, should be competitive here even giving away weight. Not absolutely sure to stay, but runs asthough should.
Want to be against Bravemansgame at the odds. Certain to stay and on his best form would walk this. Just doesn’t seem in love with the game anymore. Stable this time discarding the cheek pieces in favour of a first time tongue tie in a desperate attempt to rekindle the fire. If winning here his weight for the Grand National would also be upped… And if Bravemansgame isn’t brave anymore then Hitman has lost his bottle completely. May well look a good each way bet as is likely to place, but if doing so the win part of the bet is unlikely to be value. However, If I did try making money on Hitman it would be win only with an in-running LAY bet at significantly shorter odds.
Eldorado Allen should do better than last time going this way around, but still shouldn’t be good enough. The likely front runner, but unlikely to stay there. That said, at least he’s sure to stay.
Le Patron may well run better back at Newbury where he won earlier in the season, but will he stay – particularly if the going is soft? Fugitf a doubtful stayer too and the going maybe too soft for him anyway.
Have had a saver on GA Law. Shouldn’t really be good enough and also has a bit of a stamina doubt, but the stable is in good form so can see him returning to form.
Value Is EverythingLe Patron for me followed him all last season and rocked up at 22s first time out, probably not good enough but we’ll see.
The more I know the less I understand.
Is Bravemansgame the horse he was … No , but he doesn’t need to be to win this , this looks a really nice placing by Nicholls and I expect him to to win , e.w I’ll prob tickle Eldorado Allen
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
Bravemansgame would be a certainty here had Nicholls skipped the King George after the gruelling race at Haydock. It’s just a case of has he or hasn’t he recovered from that now.
I’m also naieve and will go for Hitman. He showed good form this season and I think his ran here last year was very good. Nobody of the level of Shishkin this year.
Hitman 4/1
Plenty of old favourites in this. I fancy Djelo, but I’d like a bit more juice for a bet and I’ll go with Ga Law who is perpetually underrated.
Interested to see how Bravemansgame goes with a view to Aintree.
That was the last act of the pantomime for me with BMG. Everything in his favour today and up against par for the course Saturday handicappers he should have been able to put them to the sword without too much trouble.
