Aintree Saturday

Colonel Sanders

One bet really sticks out for me tomorrow in a race I've backed the winner of the last 2 years running

Osana ranks an outstanding bet at 5/1 in the Maghull novices chase tomorrow. Ran a blinder in the Arkle and has twice placed at this meeting on good ground. An interesting stat is the last 15 winners of this have run in the Arkle, and he's the only representative here tomorrow

French Opera is a big danger and I definately think he should have run in the Arkle too, as his Grand Annual run off a huge weight would surely have made him a player for a top 3 placing

Must say I'm struggling to see how Tataniano is a similar price to Osana

Price is disappearing

5/1 only left with Sportingbet. I backed it each way with Powers at 5/1

I've said it a million times but really must get a sportingbet account, they're often top price on horses I fancy

Big Daddy Cool

i'll chance muirhead, finally gets good ground and might surprise at a big price, and seven is my number and then my 3 in the national

Not sure on Osana brilliant effort last time but before that poor behind an over hyped Shakervillez and Major Finnegan. Christmas effort was poor again behind a below par Sizing and the 2 horses it beat prior to that are no good either.
Cant see anything against it though and maybe the good ground is reason for Chelt effort and may prove so tomorrow.

Dont Turn Bach is a backable price in the Bumper, looked the best of the Mullins horses before sold at handily beat Our Girl Sally at Xmas who has very much franked the form.

Cant pick anything otherwise, Peddlers to skinny to risk if Chelt took its toll and same goes for front two in the hurdle

I know what you mean, except I'll be backing it (double with Peddlars) and was hoping for bigger. I presume we could say the same about Imperial Commander and What a Friend, should have been a way bigger price differential there( though not as it turned out ). I'm a big fan of horses who are targeted at Aintree and bypass Cheltenham altogether.

Knew Tataniano was serious, oh how i wish he had run in the Arkle now.
Best round of jumping ive seen from a 2 mile novice since Azertyuiop.

Great round of jumping and proved me well and truly wrong about the horse. Nicholls extents his amazing run in the race

Ah you were right about him being no value but just having backed him ante post for the Arkle and believing all year he was very good it was just nice to see him prove me right today.
