I’ve played a few shorties today at short prices , I expect Altior/shiskin/ballyadam and chac au pour soi to all win
Ok , I agree that he won’t be as good as he was but I still think he,ll win today , I like rouge vif if he doesn’t perform
He,s had a good season , if the ground was good to soft or worse then he could be e.w value
Why do you think he,ll run a shocker , I know some think the yard is not exactly firing on all cylinders but they did win the last yesterday at 25-1
Kauto and Denman performed at that age , outwith AL boum photo it’s hardly looking like a vintage bunch , we,llneed to see
Because Nathan they aren’t one dimensional , Nathan why has he gone out in price ? , he’s to slow ….you can’t make him faster , AL boum stays , jumps and has the tactical speed , Jesus Nico admitted today santini has no gears , they changed tatics tried to go from the front ….he couldn’t get in front of frodon and when the race started proper he got tapped ….. As I’ve mentioned his 1 decent win the cotswald he outstayed an out and out stayer , anything with speed will pick him off ….as has happened again today
He,s not done yet , and at or near he,s best he,s a damn sight better than santini …..I see the bookies are now going 12-1 for santini …..they can see what he is and will happily take your money , still 5-1 for AL boum , I’d say that value
After that if was good to soft or worse I’d give Native a chance in the GC , nowt in that day to frighten him , Nichols said frodon spat the dummy at aintree …he sulked because native went to the front and dominated him , as I’ve said AL boum looks stronger now , I’m sure Mullins enjoyed watching it
Nico niggled at Santini a long long way from home , what he wanted to do and what he can do are two completely different things , I said it was strange they entered him and nothing I saw today changed my mind , there’s ap saying this was a good prep for the GC for him ……err sorry I can’t have that , I’ve said on the GC thread plenty times why should last year’s form be reversed ….after that it’s even more unlikely
GG I’m not underestimating her ride but on all prior form the 1st and 2nd had it to find , he,s as hard as nails but in my mind it makes al boum photo chances of a 3rd GC a lot more solid
Glad he hasn’t the pace , Nico said before the race that he didn’t have the gears of the others …. he s a grand national horse
I’ve got little right today but I’ll stick to cyraname not staying a proper 3 miles , wonder what nicholls will do with him next
