    Highway one o two @ 20/1

    A disappointing run at Newbury really but just figured out that does seem to run far better going right handed after backing him for the last 3 years or so. They must have a family member booked to ride but is he is a very straight forward ride really once he get’s to the front.

    I’ve bet Man O Work a couple of times now over the last twelve months, though eventually swerved him last time, and reckon he’s well capable of getting involved here.

    Fairly keen on Zoffany Bay as well, but I’ll stick with the one.

    Man o Work 10’s

    I’m drawn to Givega here, and it doesn’t happen too often but I’m having a larger amount on him than I would usually look to. I haven’t bet him as of yet, as his price looks to be going out, but I won’t let that sway me

    Metier back on heavy ground as a former Tolworth winner in interesting. Also like Punctuation here. Surely he still climbing up the ranks and he could improve again.

    Metier 11/1
    Punctuation 22/1 EW

    A somewhat boring choice, but it’s Iceo for me.
    First bets today, in just over 2 weeks.

    Best of luck to all :good:

    Givega at 8-1 for me, although it’s a race that I almost left alone this year

    Djelo 16/1 is an interesting one. Absolutely hacked up on debut for Venitia Williams and has been entered into both the Martin Pipe and Coral Cup, however likely to miss out on getting into either so is running here instead. Just makes me think the horse is better than it’s shown on its recent runs otherwise she wouldn’t have bothered with the Cheltenham entries. I’m not sure I’m convinced enough to have a bet though so I’ll probably just watch. I don’t think I’ve ever won money on the horses the weekend before Cheltenham so I’ve learned to just save the pennies for the following week. Best of luck everyone though!

    Heavy ground today

    Metier 14.5
    Playful saint 8.4

    Both have good records on the ground which could be key

    Metier was the first pick , was hoping for bigger but he,a got a bit of class , Iceo is the other play , looked after last time when his chance had gone I’m expecting a big run

    I thought the same about iceo last time

    Went straight in my notebook

    I may regret siding with the Skelton horse over him

    Well done Wilts, my selection gave it a good go but was running on fumes at the end.
