Kawaboomga for me tomorrow in the Stayers hurdle. Very strong form as a novice with Kopek des Bordes and William Munny. Been on the sideline for quite a while, but now hopefully on the up again and very interesting if he can stay the 3 miles.
Kawaboomga 4/1
Doctor Steinberg for me in the 3 miles novice hurdle. He just needs to settle better. I think that is mmore easy here then at Cheltenham.
Great to see another Fact to File vs Gaellic Warrior. Would like to see Geallic Warrior win it, but after the Gold Cup I can’t back him at this price. Gonna give Champ Kiely a chance who ran decent enough for a long time in the National and more importantly won the 3 miles novice chase here last season.
Doctor Steinberg 9/2
Champ Kiely 33/1 EWThistle Ask 2/1
No reason to think he cannot improve again. Quick ground seems to suit him.
Dutch Corner could improve again, mostly has been running against very good horses.
Dutch Corner 22/1 EW
Isaac des Obeaux was impressive at Uttoxer and he will get his conditions here again. Got to give him a chance. Also think Collectors Item is a big price, hope to see him run top 5. Should be possible on a going day.
Isaac des Obeaux 11/1
Collectors Iteam 66/1 EWI like Secret Squrrel here. The County Hurdle didn’t go well, but before that he has shown good form behind Alexei, Joyeuse and Kabral du Mattan.
Backed him at 12/1 yesterday. Probably a bit less with Tellherthename out of the race.

The favourite for me. I think his ran at Aintree was quite good, not easy to win it three times in a row. This race looks easier and he even dropped a bit in the weights.
Sans Bruit 10/3
Thanks and well done to the rest.
What a legend at 11 years of age. A bit like Sire du Berlais.
You can make a casse for almost every one. Incredible difficult this year. In the end I’ve gone for the following five:
Panic Attack 17/2
Johnnywho 10/1
Perceval Legallois 22/1
Spanish Harlem 40/1 EW
Beauport 100/1 EWGood luck all!
As usual I will back Home by the Lee. Will be hard to emulate Cheltenham, but still quite a big price to find out.
Home by the Lee 9/1
Masked Man for me. Quite unexposed. Won two novices easily and second in the grade 2 novice hurdle at Haydock. Diamond Hunter won that day, we haven’t seen him since and Sticktotheplan was a third. He nearly won the County Hurdle last month. Masked Man only was a 4 year old, so you hope he will matured a bit the last 6 months.
