    Yet another festival thread by yours truly!!! Only 16 days to go who do you reckon will be the big market springers? Not saying I fancy all the horses below just that i reckon they could be be major market movers.

    New alco (Wiliam Hill Chase): possibly still well handicapped on his run behind exotic dancer and only 3lbs higher than when 2nd on pillar day. I personally would have kept him for the festival after he was 2nd to d'argent in december. The step back up in trip will defnately suit and hopefully either lacdoudal or sir rembrandt will run which will leave him in off something like 11-4. Could well go off second fav if Little bric doesn't run (I reckon far from trouble will be a heavily backed fav, yet another posible plunge horse)

    My turn now (Ballymore Hurdle): Assuming this horse goes in the ballymore I reckon he has a massive chance of finishing second to aran concerto :D Could easily be pricewise this week and is massively overpriced at 25s if you can back it with a run.

    Cailin Alainn (RSA Chase): Big form chance and connections like a punt. Win or lose this horse will be ploughed off the boards and i reckon she has a massive chance against denman receiving the mares allowance

    Powerstation (Coral Cup): 2 good runs at the course last year and possibly well treated off 135. Was nibbled at during the week and i reckon this could have been the plan all year. Btw it wouldn't surprise me if a certain C Byrnes was still involved in this horse ala Alpha Royal when he was punted in a bumper in limerick a few yrs back.

    Saintsaire (Grand Annual): I took the last of Boyle's 7/1 on friday (missed the 8s with betfred) and reckon this horse could go off very short under a massive public gamble on friday. Laid out for this since the Victor Chandler was abandonned when he was heavily supported ante post.

    I was also gonna add robin du bois in the fred winter after his run yesterday but according to his profile on the racingpost website he's not entered.
