    Really strong set of entries here, which will obviously be well whittled down by Sunday.

    Three of real interest here.

    Banbridge is one of my big hopes for the season, and although he didn’t carry the same expectation from me, I’m hoping for a good year for Thedevilscoachman.

    Midnight Run was a big hope two years back, but it’s not been plain sailing for him.

    Having started the season with The National Hunt Chase very much on my radar for Banbridge, I’m actually with him for The Turners and The Arkle. I hope he goes here Sunday, though I suspect he won’t be there, as I thought he’d be favourite for this. Thedevilscoachman might, though only slightly, be just below this level, while Midnight Run is a huge price on last run.

    No option but to hold back just now, even though that 7-2 for Banbridge is very very tempting, but that’s the trio who are interesting me right now.

    Three stripe life was apparently fat as a pig on chase debut

    So expecting him to take a significant step forward

    Quite surprised to see him so short in the market though

    Be interesting to see what turns up

    Glad to see Banbridge stepping back up in trip for this.

    The TURNERS is the race I want him aimed at.

    Decided against betting Banbridge, as happy with my Cheltenham bets. No need to bet him as short here, even if he’s one of my big hopes for the season.

    Thedevilscoachman very unpopular, but I still think he can go close here, but no bet race for now.

    Very impressed with the winner, lovely big strong sort, travelled well throughout, and potentially better if it’s jumping improves.

    Mighty Potter won in the style of a good horse, but the 2nd was the horse to take out of that race for me.

    Galliard Du Mesnil for the NH chase this season…..Fill your boots :good:

    Yogi, you don’t think connections will be tempted by the BANC?
