    Just taken 14/1 Gold Tweet e/w, feel he is overpriced and love the way he stormed up the hill rather cosily, feel like the race should be run to suit and I’d expect him to be asked for a challenge later than most.

    Backed Home By The Lee a while ago and hoping for the best.

    – won his grade 1 prep at Xmas and
    been put away for this.
    – goes on any ground.
    – we know he stays.
    – run at Cheltenham before like 11
    of the last 12 winners.
    – trainer has said it’s his best
    chance of the week.

    “It’s the horse who started favourite for this last year and was last sighted over what is an inadequate trip for him nowadays.”

    Trainer happy to skip it if necessary so obviously has had an issue or two. “If I have to wait for Aintree or Punchestown with him then so be it. We won’t rush him.”

    Yes, this is when NRNB or simply waiting until the 48-hour decs is useful.

    This gives me confidence, sir!

    Let’s hope it stays on up the hill rather better than our beloved Wayward Lad ever did!

    I’m very keen on Klassical Dream here off of his long break, even though that didn’t look by design. I think that he is the best bet for me this week

    Decent race this, and surely too big a step, but I’ll add him at decent odds anyway

    Teahupoo is a proper improver and the ground would really suit him if the heavens open. In saying that the Blazing Khal soap opera is comedy. I would doubt there’s been much concern, Charles has been playing the game bigggg time.

    His beating of Meet + Greet giving him weight reads well vs Home by the Lee.

    Personally i think he just wins this. He’s proper top class.

    Staying with my orig bets of
    Flooring Porter (12s and 8s) and
    Paisley Park (14s and 12s)

    No extra bets for me, on this race.

    Best of luck to all :good:

    Gold tweet definitely overpriced but it’s a stupidly competitive race.

    Gold tweet is in the category of he’ll either win or come nowhere for me so I’ll be backing him win only.

    Backed Klassical Dream months ago. Still think he has a good chance here in these conditions. Paisley Park drifted out to a big price and can seem him at least running into a place. I think that Cleeve Hurdle run wasn’t that bad as he gave away 6 pound to the winner and runner-up.

    Klassical Dream 10/1
    Paisley Park 16/1 EW

    I hope Flooring Porter gets his hat trick and I’ll put a bit on him tomorrow, and I know Ashdale Bob is not exactly a win machine but I’ll back him ew, close to the off as I don’t expect him to be popular in the betting.

    I’ve got Flooring in a few ante post bets , for those keen on Home by Lee and Klassical dream at 25s Ashdale Bob has form around these , ran a monster in the coral with loads of weight last year , he looks a value e.w bet

    Finding this really difficult, i could see BK & TH winning easily, but its hard to get by HBTL, what flooring porter will turn up? I cant have him on current form atall this looks as good a renewal for a while, KD is overpriced and the ground is likely to be perfect, everything else is still in with a chance

    Such a good race on paper

    Can get HBTL @3/1 W/O BK & TH, which will be my main bet of the race

    With a smaller bet on BK @ 5s+ he looks like he could drift, will top up if so
