    I’m not one for backing half a dozen in the race I just pick one and take my chance.

    If the ground is good/good to soft then I’ll back

    Oscar Time

    .

    If its soft/heavy then I can’t see past

    Silver by Nature

    .

    Thought Maktu received a very poor ride.

    Pulled too hard early and didn’t get home because of it IMO.

    The people I really feel sorry for here are those that backed Long Run to favouritism, off a handicap mark of 158 at Cheltenham last time and saw him finish a well beaten third.
    They must be thinking what on earth is going on here, he can’t win off a 158, but can win a Grade 1 Championship race off levels with horse rated 190 and many more rated higher than his 158.
    You couldn’t make it up, no wonder punters haven’t got a chance.

    I like the look of the Venetia Williams trained

    Summery Justice

    in the Welsh National, currently 20/1 with Hills looks decent E/W value.

    He looks a thorough stayer to me and may improve again for the longer trip, hope the meeting beats the weather, not looking encouraging though.
