    Looking forward to the roar tomorrow. I ended up with:
    * Klassical Dream 33/1
    * The Big Bite 50/1 EW
    * Quick Grabim 25/1

    I backed Klassical Dream to win the novice hurdle at the Dublin festival & this. I feared he would go to the Ballymore, but I am glad the rain came. The soft ground shouldn’t be a problem for him and the stamina test will definitely suite him as well. The Big Bite hasn’t been seen since Boxing Day at Kempton. He finished 4th there, 7 lenghts behind Mister Fisher. He was giving Mister Fisher 8 pounds and he tried to walk trough some hurdles instead of jumping them. If he can jump better he could be in the frame. I suppose the ground wouldn’t be an issue for him as he has won easily on heavy at Haydock in december.

    Finally committed to Mister Fisher. Has drifted from 10’s to 14’s (even touched 18’s with one firm) but I’m not too concerned. Has a great jockey on board for a trainer who knows how to win this. Has done nothing wrong all season and won’t mind the rain having won his bumper on soft. The slower pace might even suit.

    Won so easily. Superb ride by Ruby.

    Not sure what to make out of the race though… lots of dissapointments.

    I was on Itchy Feet and he ran a very good race, but nothing to do against KD

    Extremely impressive. Travelled like a dream and finished well.

    Given the way that some of the fancied horses ran do we think that the theme of this week will be how little this season’s form will matter given most of it was on good ground?

    It’s not yet as soft as the official going suggests. True Good-soft.

    Al Dancer pulled his chance away.
    Angel’s Breath badly hampered and got too far back.
    Jockey on Fakir lost a good position, shuffled back, outpaced, then stayed on.
    So those three may do better another day.
    My outsider ran well in second…
    However, the time/standard of performance put up by the winner means he’ll in all probability have won anyway.

    WELL DONE DBR and MIKE and anyone else on the winner :good: :good:

    That was impressive in that ground!
    Mrsraymo backed Itchy Feet at 33/1 so well done her :good:

    I think apart from the winner the prominent horses have gone too fast to get home.

    We could see some tired horses this week
