if you can manage to find TTK or mac and stay in their company you will appear like a sage in the land of sorrows , enjoy the day, stay out of the bars and you’ll have a fantastic time. I’d suggest going down and standing opposite the last for the queen mum and arkle and you will get and appreciation for the speed and dangers at that level of racing, incredible
In the supreme, the last remaining doubt re MTOY has been removed in my mind, i.e. quick gnd
He’ll win now and might even look value after the race
I backed Pious Souz AP but his chance would appear to have gone with the rain
Champagne Fever is my other interest but way too skimy now @6/1
Fav is probably value
Couldnt have Jedski
The arkle, Simonsig, take the 1/1 in Laddies (20) and load up if you can get 4/5 tomorrow
Boring so far. It gets worse for me. my other big AP plunge was Grandoeut, but its doubtful he’s straight
If the market turned for him, i would stay put, but the champ is the one to the on now @ 5/1
In the cross country, i am going to stick a few pund ew on Boston Angel, nice weight swing with Outlaw Pete…just an interest…not massive fancy
In the final race, carlito brigante (137) is exceptionally well treated compared to his hurdle rating, but one that could be even better treated is the druids nephew. His last run was partuculary eye catching and his jumping (left) will be even more suite to CHE, ran well in albert bartlett last year, won P2P on soft and will get home ew @ 8s…dont rule out carlito
Hmm, in the last, i keep getting drawn back to Forgotten Gold @ 20s also…perhaps try him and the druids nephew…gnd might not totally suit Carlito…good luck
Couple of things for today. Firstly if you’re backing in the supreme do so with Hills, they’re paying on first 5 in a 12 horse race with 2 no hopers. Make sure to back in Champion Hurdle with Powers.
Supreme - Cause of Causes & Cheltenian ew with Hills
Agile - no bet yet
JLT - Loch Ba
Champion - Countrywide Flame ew with Powers
Cross Country - Leac an Scail
Mares - no bet yet
Last race - no bet yet
Fiveforthree in the Coral Cup looks a savage bet too.
My selections for today
1.30 Cheltenian ew 25/1
2.05 Overturn 9/2 (very hard to see past Simonsig however)
2.40 Fruity O Rooney ew 11/1
3.20 Grandouet 8/1 (tentatively)
4.00 Any Currency 12/1
