    Not a race I like at all, but having bet Panic Attack at 66’s and 80’s for last two renewals, I’m here this year taking 6’s lol

    I’d love her to go Ryanair, but highly unlikely. 6’s is annoying, but I thought she’d be half that, so might as well bet now

    Panic Attack 6’s NRNB

    July Flower is 12/1 for this race and 25/1 for the Arkle. I’m not sure she stays 2m4f, but this is an easier race. Just backed her 12/1 WIN only.

    Tell you what, VTC: I reckon you’re on a winner here.

    I have never really rated Dinoblue (and she isn’t a thorough stayer at the distance); the rest are “meh” at best.

    4s is the best available, so I’ve taken that. Better late than never 😎

    I think most people would agree the the Champion Chase is a higher class race than the Mares Chase. The favourite and second favourite for the Champion Chase were both beaten by ‘ONLY BY NIGHT’ in last years Arkle and she was only beaten in the dying strides by one of this years Gold Cup favourites. And yet this horse from a top stable is still available at 10/1 with WH. Watch last years race again:

    The distance is the question mark with Only By Night. The trainer doesn’t know but she will take her chance.

    Risky bet for you that Mike. You know it’s 3 places for each way money mate?

    I was on Diva Luna ante post for the arkle at silly prices so I won’t desert her now.

    8/1 win only.

    The owner of Spindleberry wanted to go to the Gold Cup, but it was clear Mullins was having none of it, so I’m not reading a thing into her last run as it wouldn’t surprise me if she was well short of fitness just so she could “bomb out” and thus make the argument of running here instead much easier.

    Rant aside, I fancy her to bounce back here for all Panic Attack is clearly dangerous and is a big hope of mine for the Grand National.

    Dinoblue 9/4
    July Flower 9/2 w/o 2 favs.

    Dino would’ve been the last leg of an acca for me if they hadn’t pulled FTF out yesterday. Will be fuming if she wins.

    I’m surprised that I can get 6-1 on Spindleberry, so she will do fine for me.
