    4/6 with Betfair. If you've no problem lumping on odds on shots then he's a good price. Not my style tbh so I'll happily just sit back and watch. I've backed him every week for a couple of months for Cheltenham so I've enough riding on him!

    Hope he wins well so. Presume Sam will be on at chelt as well, good guy to have on your side in a race of this nature

    No confirmation but would be fairly surprised if he wasn't. Has been on him every start thus far in HCs. Yeah certainly not a bad pilot to have

    Probably the most confident shout I've seen in this thread(bar the unbeatable Coneygree)..
    Find it hard to read the hunter chase form at the best of times but one for the shortlist...

    What price do you reckon he'll be cut to if he wins tomorrow?

    Can't see Warne going for this, complete non-stayer. 2m5 around Aintree is his trip, he'll take beating there this year again.

    That's class. Just got on to Betfair support and they confirmed it. If he doesn't win tomorrow he surely won't win at Cheltenham so 14/1 is fantastic.

    My Nap of the festival Paint The Clouds makes his reappearance in the Hunter Chase at Doncaster tomorrow. Decent ground, which is essential for him, is what he'll encounter at Doncaster and I will be very disappointed if he doesn't make very light work of the 4 runners in opposition tomorrow. I'd highly, highly recommend taking the 8/1 available for the Foxhunters as he'll definitely be favourite if everything goes to plan tomorrow.

    Interesting to read here http://www.sportinglife.com/racing/news/article/2/9718911/grand-national-timeform-have-announced-that-the-druids-nephew-is-their-top-weight-adjusted-horse-for-the-grand-national

    2nd top rated for the Grand National, go for Foxhunters and then the National - Didn't another horse attempt this?

    Double Silk - I think

    I just combined the two, it wasnt a special or anything. He has shortened for tomorrow though so will be a bit less than 14

    That's a horrible bet, I don't think TNO has a prayer in the Champion and big question marks over Conti at the course.

    Don't fancy it myself just said someone might fancy it. Boyles started today also 21/1 Faugheen, Vautour and Peace and Co.

    They are worth keeping an eye on encase something decent pops up.

    Boyles allow you to combine the same horse for different races. Just write it as if you were doing a normal double.

    That doesn't sound right, I rely they'll argue they're related? (Which they are)

    Do you think paint the clouds will be that much shorter come nrnb in two weeks time? The reason I ask is I recall a similar bullishness on mosey joe last yr but he never made it and the ap bets went south, so if the big prices are already gone, maybe people should wait for the safety of nrnb? Just a thought.

    When would you be able to get entries for the races at Naas this weekend? Would it be much closer to the day?

    Waiting for Tell Us More to run again, there's a Grade 2 Novice hurdle over 2 miles on the card.
