    I still think the short go is well handicapped and now I’ve just heard De Bromhead say he’s heading to this I’ll take some 20’s.

    I don’t buy these silly narratives that because the British horses usually win this race an Irish horse can’t!

    Quite like Resplendent Grey who ran well at the Festival last season

    Each Way [NRNB] @ 25-1 [bET 365]

    I echo that, GB.

    Murphy reported as saying this is the target for Resplendent Grey (also in the Gold Cup) and at 25/1 NRNB, he looks an attractive bet. 4th in the NH chase before winning the Whitbread, then began the season over 20f to win the Colin Parker. Well fanced for the Hennessy next time, he dwelt in that chaotic standing start and was left well off the pace (usually likes to lie up). Ran the best rating of his career last time at Windsor behind Protektorat – trip shorter than ideal. Looks significantly over-priced with that money-back offer.

    A lot of talk about Jagwar but he’s a bit of a weak finisher in my eyes , in no way would u want him in a fight

    Pick 3 on Saturday champion 2025/2026

    Good – means Jagwar will hopefully get a decent jockey.

    Cross Iroko off the shortlist, then.

    I’m leanings towards Leave Of Absence, definitely if there is any ‘good’ in the going description. I think he should be a lot shorter than 20s.

    Added Search for Gloy. Good form in Ireland in two big handicaps. Ran decent enough here last year and is now on a lower mark. If Iroko drift a bit on the day I will back him too. Could be a grade 1 horse.

    Filander 80/1 EW
    Search for Glory 40/1 EW

    Hadnt touched this apart from Handstands , added again along with

    Konfusion , the yard thought he was a Gold Cup horse , he’s got class and I’ll be surprised if he’s not in the mix

    Resplendent Grey , I always follow the Colin Parker form so
    he,s covered to

    Johnnywho , they’ve thrown the kitchen sink at him here , only thing missing is a flashing beacon , he normally arrives on the scene to late however there’s a race in him , could be this

    All played to win 3+ lengths

    Was praying Jonjo would take Jagwar as I fancied Iroko so strongly for this. Not so much now with him onboard. I thought Resplendent Grey was overpriced also.

    My two :

    Iroko – 9/1
    Resplendent Grey – 20/1 win and 12/1 w/o the McManus pair.
