    If Madison comes out half the field ends up with 11st or more. On current entries you’d have 23 on 11st+.

    Chief Dan George still needs 8 to come out at least… :cry: At least two of them are running at Fairyhouse today so technically it’s 6

    Flintoff doesn’t run at Fairyhouse now.

    Likely that he will run at Aintree.

    Makes a good story for the BBC if it happens. Horse travels to Fairyhouse, scratched at the 11th hour and wins the Aintree National! Imagine that :lol:

    Flintoff is in the 40. The alphabetical list is not the order. 40 is Abbeybraney, 39 Flintoff.

    I would really, really love it if Flintoff won the GN. I’d find it hilarious. Coleman picking the wrong horse two years in a row! He deserves it as punishment for not picking Mon Mome last year. Normally, I could have understood someone rejecting Mon Mome, but the alternative was Stan, who everyone bar 2 or 3 people in the whole world considers a non-stayer. Why pick a horse with no chance instead of a horse with a small chance?

    I’d also like it if State Of Play won, as he is one of my favourite horses, but I wouldn’t like to take a short price, unless there was an assurance that the injury had gone away, and wouldn’t come back. I’m concerned about a back injury, because it means that the horse couldn’t be ridden for a while.

    Wonder if the Wilsons would want to take out Mr Pointment to allow Cerium in. Suspect they may both get a run yet though.

    Anyone got any thoughts on Royal Rosa? On 10 5, so i guess will just scrape in.
    It’s just on oddschecker most bookies going 100s or 150s, but Paddy Power are on their own at only 50s – it’s a price move today from 100s. Interesting or not? Views welcome

    That’s interesting as Abbeybraney has generally been about 50s (some 66s in places).
    Couldn’t resist a few bob e/w on RR just now, as i had a few pounds lurking in one of my internet betting accounts. :)
    Just a little ‘side bet’ :)
