Doubts about appearance, if he's going anywhere Paddy Power strongly suggesting it is the Supreme. Stands to reason, Gigginstown have nobody for it and they have Outlander for the Neptune. Mullins also said McKinley for the Neptune.

Balls, I'd high hopes for McKinley in the supreme.

50/1 on the exchanges for the 4 miler, looks like you're good to go

BumperD

Have you decided on who your 2/3 big bets are going to be on?

Decent bet Bumper, Kings Palace and Coneygree could do a right job on themselves.

BumperD

Very Wood was going to be one, regardless of where he went. I like him. A lot.
He is still 16/1 for the RSA. This still represents value, imo.

There is one other for Wednesday in the novices and I'll stick him up here the night before. Not a tip. Just my only other fancy of the week at the moment. He's not a huge price so value gone but I'm backing him anyway ew

I gave up that ante post lark for yrs as I never won much, and was definitely in the red by a wide margin. But I saw this fella in October win that beginners chase which has a record of chucking out an RSA type and mentioned here before his last run so chucked a bet on the RSA as the price looked value. He still has to turn up on the day. I generally stay away from ap as I said, I've a collection of ap bets in a scrap book at home as a testament to many a poor bet over the years

Gringo180

I don't like doing these sort of bets but I am leaning towards a Faugheen, Vautour and Sire De Grugy treble...... I think Vautour is banker material in the JLT.

There's too many Mullins animals in the above portfolio, in all honesty, but was more than happy with each price was placing individual bets and still happy with it overall.

Have a few nice ones but a couple of other long shots that went south:

Supreme - Douvan 9/2, Jollyallen 25/1
Arkle -- UDS 5/1
Bumper -- Bordoni 20/1
RSA -- Kings Palace 10/1 (don't necessarily think he'll win)
Triumph -- Peace and Co 9/2
Gold Cup -- Carlingford Lough 33/1

3/6 not too bad. Ante Post can be such a lottery though. I was lucky that a few of them stayed in one piece/and or went down the route I guessed.
