No Gaelic Warrior in this one and no other entries left. Seems to bypass Cheltenham for whatever reason. He really ran very poorly this season.
Fact To File 11/8 – Just playing. Hopefully just does the bidness with plenty in his favour, was fairly happy with the price.
Envoi Allen EW for me. 16/1 is an insulting price for a horse with his record, 11 years young or not.
Fact To File boosted to 2/1 on the Betfair Sportsbook. Not sure if there is any limit on how much you can put on.
Throwing a couple darts at Protektorat and Djelo. Two very likable types who won’t be inconvenienced by what is likely to be a fierce pace.
One of the most intriguing races of the week.
I was sure I’d be on Djelo this morning, but his only disappointment was at Windsor when the yard form had took a dip. Can’t say he won’t win but Venitia is in another dip.
I’m on Protektorat (again) ante-post for this. Could’ve done without Il Est Francais making the running, but Pro’ does not need to lead – as he showed last year.
Fact To File is by far the best of the hold up horses, so if they do go fast up front FTF should pick up the pieces. Favourite that looks value.
Il Est Francais is an obvious danger. I’ve backed him ante-post at a double figure price… And then laid him back when connections said he was likely to avoid Fact To File. Now at a price that is not worth taking the chance. Have doubts he’ll be as effective here.
All the De Bromhead horses are interesting in different ways. However, this might not be soft enough for Jungle Boogie. Heart Wood wasn’t that far behind Galopin last time, but still needs to improve. I have saved on Envoi Allen… Goes well at Cheltenham, won the race before and runs well fresh. But he is 11, so might be on the downgrade now..
Value Is EverythingSame with me Peter, backed both of them at 7/1 WIN. Can’t have the French horse winning this and FOF is just too short at around 11/8.
Fact to File should win and he’s in a few accas e.w this trip might just be perfect for Heart Wood , he’s the one in the field also most likely to find improvement
Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026
