Getabird was very disappointing. Lot of ante posters lost a few quid. Not a good start.

I hope McCoy and others talk more about the tactics, did the 2 in front really expect to get home there? Though best horse did almost certainly win anyway regardless

The (semi)legendary 'MysticMeg' has forecast two decent placers so far :

Mengli Khan @15 - 13:30 = placed
BrainPower@15 - 14:10 = placed

"Off the bridle all the way down the back," Willie says. Didnt seem that way to me, just the mistake was the only thing.

Hon Footpad.

The chemistry between Chapman and Gleeson is just horrific. Car crash TV.

Is footpad a gold cup horse after that? Very impressive there. Bar the mistake, his jumping was excellent

Have Cogry and Ramses de Teilee in the next. Led to believe RDT likes the heavy ground. Hoping Twiston Davies can pull this one off though.

Summerville Boy e/w @ 5/1 without Getabird

Footpad

Think the ground suits both of the above

Also a small bet on Faugheen for old time's sake, but more in hope than expectation !!

Great start !!!

All downhill from here...............
