    I am having a fiver on Preening. Fanshawe knows his fillies.

    Dutching Pretty Baby and Di Fede in the next. Favourite's form is very up and down so doesn't appeal at all.

    Best tipster on the forum confirmed there :D
    Yeah it's brilliant when those 2/1 favs come in:D


    spent a long time here in the past and whilst I don't know who the best tipster is I certainly know who's the worst.
    I don't want to go digging again dan but if I have to I will :cool:

    Settle for Bay to repeat last years victory? Hoping between him and what’s the story

    Nice to hear Haggas praising Doyle for "not trying" on Sea the Class in the big one. Hope the stewards had a word .

    One of my original bets, Breden, now a non runner in Hunt Cup, preferred So Beloved on form of the two I had bet but high draws look the way to go on all available evidence.

    Small bit on Circus Couture instead of Breden to keep the high/low balance.

    He's so hungry to win and seems to be reading many races to perfection.

    That was a really top class race with the first three rated well into the 120s, even with the rain making things messy it was solid form. The winner looks like he could be a Ulysses this year. Couldn't necessarily see any of the field winning the Arc ( though I'm very soft on Magical for the Arc and Found had plenty of defeats on the way there ) but the top three are good enough to place in it and Sea Of Class can be excused today's run.

    Need to find a 3yo who could put it up to them in the Arc, not an easy task.

    The conditions just turned completely into his favour. Frankie wise to Hunting Horn trying to set steady fractions and pushed him all the way. It was clever as he knew his horse stays well and lacks that finishing kick a la the 2 fillies.

    Am i right in saying Danny Tudhope is leading Jockey? Not watching the coverage since the Prince of Wales but he is on 3 winners right?

    Dig away son, although I thought backing on the Eurovision song contest was your area of expertise!

    Mitchum Swagger likes it soft. Adeybb bolted up yesterday in a decent race and Mitchum 2a sonly 3l back from him when he won the Lincoln last year. He has form at this track and should go OK at a huge price of 33/1.

    I know he didn't win but jesus Spencer is different gravy over the 1m straight course on these hold up horses.

    You sure they arent calling her Cesca? or Chesca? (However you want to pronounce it.)
    Pretty sure they all call her that.
