    Brave Kingdom and Good Risk At All confirmed for the trial on Saturday. Both to be ridden by two very good claimers who hopefully will take the ride in the main event if they get there. Freddie Gingell feels significant on Brave Kingdom as I believe the Welsh National is still named in his mum’s memory. These will be my pair for now, hopefully both get there in one piece.

    Jubilee Express is my first bet at 14-1, and my outsider is No Hubs No Hoobs at 66-1 ew

    I’m all over Monbeg genius for this.

    Although I’m also on Good Risk at all and Mr vango in some each way doubles with runners in the king George.

    The Big breakaway looks a very interesting price as well if he’s an intended runner. Second in 2022 and ran well behind Beauport last time out. Admittedly beaten a long way.

    Mr Cider, I agree with you. I don’t think that The Big Breakaway is a forlorn hope here, and I’ve taken 50-1 each way

    I’m also with Broadway Boy at 14-1 win. I’m keen on him for this, and he certainly had a few bob on

    I’m surprised that the 20-1 has held for Fontaine Collonges throughout, and I’m very hopeful about him

    Major Dundee is certainly harder to make a concrete case for, but I’ve had a smaller wager on him 50-1 ew

    And the bookies were behind the 8 ball on that news for over an hour! So I snaffled some more of the 10’s for Monbeg genius before he got cut into 6/1 fav!

    Some rain forecast, locally, over coming 3 days, but current forecast sees predominately dry weather from Monday, right up to raceday.
    So, ground should be perfect, but not overly soft or heavy, as often is the case come WN day.

    I suspect my main bet of Galia Des L, might be inconvenienced by decent ground, so i’ve taken a punt on

    I’ll bet Evies Vladimir if he gets the call. I like the 20/1, but I’ll wait

    Val Dancer a worthwhile bet at 33’s. Mel Rowley isn’t one to tilt at windmills.

    Be very interesting if Deutsch retains the ride.
