    Pleased to see Umbrigado still in there. I’m on the verge of having a decent bet, but his record of late withdrawals, and his entry for The Stayers Hurdle at Haydock is holding me back.

    He’s still 20’s, and I think that’s big, so a wee bet just now, with a bigger bet if he actually gets declared. He’s the only one I’m intending betting at the moment, though no doubt I’ll have a good look at Coole Cody on the day. I’m hoping that Editeur Du Gite goes for The Shloer

    Umbrigado 20’s

    I’ve finally bet Slate House at 33-1 ew 5pls, though my bet on the day will be Midnight River. There are varying reports about him and his dependency on the ground, hence the wait

    Still like the look of Ga Law for this. If he was fitter and not having his first run for 2 years he would of scooted in st Aintree the other week and been a strong fav for this.

    I also like Ga Law for this one. Backed him for the Old Roan Chase and there he made a big error 4 out. He still ran a great race after such a long lay-off. I also like Simply the Betts. A real class horse back to a winnable mark.

    Ga Law 6/1
    Simply The Betts 20/1 EW

    Backed Nassalam at 20s and
    Coole Cody at 16s

    Couldnt leave out CC, as he loves it around here, although i reck he’d like it softer. Same prob goes for Nassalam, so why the hell i backed him flock only knows?🤣

    I’ve got to back Cool Cody as well as I’d hate to not be cheering for him if he’s in with a shout at the last fence. I’ve backed Happy Go Lucky as well.

    Galahad Quest running off a lower mark than when fifth in this last year is my main bet in this with Slate House at a big price for a bit of fun.

    Really open renewal, for all it isn’t the strongest.

    Il ridito and Coole cody for me , was keen on happygolucky but sadly he,s a nr , stable form and wind opp make il ridito a play , read Nicholls changed his feed as he wasn’t happy with his horses last year , it’s def made a difference , Coole Cody could jump around here blindfolded , after his pipe opener he should be bang on for this , I’ll be watching old Slate House closely to but no play ….yet ….50s is to big though

    I really ought to stop backing unsound horses antepost.

    Nassalam (he should jump better going left handed woth something to aim at) and
    Simply the Betts (no prep run but trainer says he is fit) are my ew bets here.
    I’m interested in Midnight River too but can’t bet em all. :-)

    Well done TC, Mike and DBR :good:

    They looked to be going a right clip to start with. Hard luck Stolen Silver backers. Midnight River one to follow perhaps. Honourable mention to David Maxwell, at least he kept a good position for most of the race and kept in contention till he/the horse bungled the second last

    Ta all.

    He didn’t jump very well whole race so fair play to the horse.
