Get Me Out Of Here is my choice but only because I think the going will favour him more than Dunguib.
In a way, Dunguib reminds me of that irish 2 y o (3 now) Arctic who was impressive on heavy ground but wasn’t so good on better going.
Still a cracking race though
Rob, it’s late, go to bed, you’re clearly delusional!
I think and hope that this time tomorrow Dunguib’s price will look huge.
Should be a cracking opener. The expectation on the favourite will be at breaking point when the tape come up.
I like many aspects to Get me Out of Here but I did not get any of the 10/1 or even 8/1 so I’m loathe to take 5/1 now.
I like the argument some have put up for General Miller and Menorah.
Hmm, not sure what I’ll back till 1.25pm!
Zip
If I was to guess at his SP, I would say maybe 8/11. I’d be very very surprised if he didn’t go off odds on.

The 11/10 Stan James are offering is suicidal – I think I’ll be making a stop
there very shortly – and only goes to show how desperate bookmakers are to get Dunguib beat.Here’s hoping he trots up.
I’m looking forward to logging back on this site at 1.40. Dunguib is unbeatable. A freak!

The last hurdle being moved could play into oscar whiskeys hand if dunguibs jumping is not tip-top.
I hope dunguib storms home though, i really do.
A great way to start The Festival. What an intriguing battle between bookies and punters.
Would love to see Dunguib put in a stellar performance to get the meeting off to a flyer.
Looking forward to the roar(s).
The bubble has burst for the time being!
Dont think it was the finest ride from the jockey of Dunguib, but a good performance from the winner.
I always look at the horse with the highest Topspeed rating for these 2m hurdles and Menorah has a Topspeed of 156 compared to 153 to GMOOH and 152 for Dunguib.
Do any of the time experts have a view on Menorah’s time at Kempton compared to Go Native’s in the Christmas Hurdle?
Topspeed was spot on!
Pace, possibly ground and most certainly the fact he circled the field found out Dunguib. Time for new pilot.
Well done for anyone that backed Menorah
Jockey gave him too much to do, practically went the longest route throughout the race, would’ve got a lot closer if he went the shortest. Bookies 1-0 Punters (or 5 million)
