    Grade one winner Statuaire now at 20s with Bet365. Got to be worth a go, surely?

    Hedging my bets here, but I think Lord Du Mesnil, Lake View Lad and Sam’s Adventure could all do well.

    Couple of relative outsiders have caught my eye – Captain Tommy and Game Line.

    I’ve jumped on the Foveros bandwagon and I’m also interested in Spanish Kiss, so it’s those two and Themaxwecan for me.

    There’s something about Themaxwecan that, at a very big price, makes me think he’s worth a go.

    Will probably be adding a couple of others nearer the time.

    I really like the way Hurricane Lane won the Dante.

    Mohaafeth is by the greatest flat horse ever out of a daughter of the second greatest flat horse ever, so I’m intrigued by what he can do.

    They’re my two.

    Dubai Fountain is my pick. Won well last time in a recognised trial and is a big price considering.

    Santa Barbara has loads of potential, but if I were to back an AOB horse, it’d be the other one!

    This race is always bloody difficult, but I just have a feeling that Outlander could do better than his price suggests.

    I like Atlantic Shore, Fitzhenry, and Dragon D’Estruval. Dragon is back to a winning weight, and the change of trainer is intriguing.

    If we are playing the “what races would you get rid of so we could have a three day Cheltenham?” game, my response is

    The Mares Novice Hurdle
    The Mares Chase
    The Coral Cup
    The Martin Pipe
    The Baring Bingham

    And any two out of the Mares Hurdle, the Kim Muir, and the Fred Winter.

    I reckon Zanahiyr will be the better horse in time, but I think Quilixios is the better horse now, so I’m on him.

    Not sure why Flooring Porter is the price he is. Certainly worth an ew squeak.

    I’ve gone for Envoi Allen in next year’s GC. Monkfish was good, but lacked that wow factor and made some fairly fiddly jumps.

    Also went for Shishkin in the Champion Chase, because he’s the best 2m chaser since The MEGABEAST.
