The Galloping Bear
Not sure if the 20’s is available but on already before today’s race so it does not matter that much.Seemed a big return to form just now on ground faster than ideal and would fancy him to turn the tables on today’s winner especially if it came up soft. Should be single figures really IMO.
February 27, 2023 at 12:59 #1637194The Galloping Bear was my big fancy for Aintree this season, and after a return to form on Saturday, I’ve also taken the 20-1 here
March 2, 2023 at 16:11 #1637542Well done with the 20-1 Botchy and All Jeff. I waited and waited and was left with the 14-1. I think that he goes very close here, so I suppose that I cannot really grumble at 14-1
Truckers Lodge at 20-1 is the other that I like. I think that he will definitely go here, so I’ve bet him as well, before I check back in and find him approaching single figures
March 11, 2023 at 08:12 #1638461Off the current list I’m looking at Does he know and Jimmy the digger.
Does he know is the class act and Jimmy the digger has looked tailor made for a trip like this.
14’s and 33’s and I’ll have a little bit on both on the nose.
March 11, 2023 at 14:50 #1638550Early bet for me as well Tizz, and went as planned with The Dabbler.
The Dabbler 33’s EW
With The Dabbler not going, I’ll go with another from the original shortlist, as he’s too big, in Time To Get Up
I reckon Mighty Thunder might go to Ayr, and this is a quick turnaround from The Eider. I’m itching to take that 100’s, but he has a Sunday entry. I’d be more hopeful that Time To Get Up goes, but at this stage, I’m only hopeful
Probably used up what I’d be willing to bet on this now, as The Dabbler was slightly bigger Antepost on top of this pair, but I’ll definitely add Flower of Scotland and/or Mighty Thunder if they go.
He’s far from certain to get round, but I’ve added Captain Kangaroo at 20’s here.Captain Kangaroo 20’s EW 6pls
Time To Get Up 33’sMarch 15, 2023 at 19:03 #1639628The Galloping Bear at 14/1 for me, and I will happily take the big ew odds on Notachance should he be confirmed
March 17, 2023 at 18:28 #1640317Bobbys played ….. Both his picks are now evens joint favourites … the bookies now beware
March 17, 2023 at 18:37 #1640323Captain Kangaroo at 20s (BOG)
The Two Amigos at 10s (BOG)
Scipion at 25s (BOG)Best of luck to all
March 17, 2023 at 19:36 #1640350The Two Amigos ew 5 places.

March 18, 2023 at 10:23 #1640446Very boring but im going with 2 shorties who’ll love conditions , Iwilldoit is trying to do something not done since bonanza boy in 91 , it’s a big ask but if hes a genuine national horse he’ll need to go close , Secret reprieve won a Welsh National then looked gone however Williams has been patient and he,s got a nice weight and conditions to suit
Iwilldoit
Secret reprieve
March 18, 2023 at 11:32 #1640467Course specialist Time to get up is on a very nice mark. Got to go for him. Also added The Two Amigos as the winner of the Welsh National and only raised a few pounds for that.
Time To Get Up 11/1
The Two Amigos 7/1March 18, 2023 at 11:46 #1640471Crazy to think the current Welsh National winner will be recieving 2 stone from the previous one.
I desperately wanted to back one against Iwilldoit because I just feel like conditions will suit so many of these regressive types who’ve become well handicapped but couldn’t decide which one. I can’t see him having enough in hand off his mark but good luck if you’ve backed him or whoever you have. Will be watching Major Dundee with interest. Today probably won’t be his day on jockey bookings but they’ll have Ayr in mind next time.
March 18, 2023 at 12:38 #1640492Mr Incredible ran well off top weight (145) in the Kim Muir , that gives me confidence iwilldoit maybe a 150 plus horse , he gave Mr 5lbs at Warwick , plenty deadwood here and Mullins horse has plenty to find
March 18, 2023 at 13:14 #1640503Iwilldoit at 7-1, and Scipion at 33-1 are my bets, and I actually have a slight preference for the Lacey horse
March 18, 2023 at 14:57 #1640513Bushypark 12/1, backed him for his win last time and see no good reason to lose faith now
March 18, 2023 at 15:03 #1640514The galloping bear for me.
Do these lads know it’s 4 and a quarter miles not 7 furlongs!!😅
