    Farclas, Milan Native, Discorama are my three main fancies.


    Using the Bet365 offer you get another few stabs at the race - so i've also backed Any Second Now, with Lake View Lad and Tout Est Permis as two big price each way pokes.

    Cloth Cap, Farclas and Any Second Now are probably the only horses in the field that are likely 'well in' and better than their current handicap marks. But you'd be mad backing CP at current prices.

    Alpha des Obeaux and give me a copper small e/w bets as I feel one or both could get placed, will run through the full card in the morning and maybe pick one or two others. Then i will let my nine year old pick his horse and I'll cry as the race unfolds and he yet again picks a winner while mine are sixty lengths behind :D

    The fact that it is even questionable is a joke.

    Very much doubt there will be any cancellation. If the funeral was tomorrow, then yes.

    That's your opinion which you are fully entitled to hold, the fact is a senior royal has died on the eve of the biggest sporting event in that country, add in the ties the Royal family have to racing in England and I wouldn't be surprised if it was cancelled until after the funeral.

    Would you be as upset if it was the FA cup or a six nations game that was cancelled?

    Might be better to keep the Royal family discussions to a different thread.

    Don't confuse my bemusement for me being upset. Cancelling even the most insignificant event for a death of a royal seems daft to me so absolutely yes.

    I remember Liverpool's game Vs Newcastle was cancelled the weekend Diana died. I remember being disappointed at the time. I'd have been disappointed if the National had been called off tomorrow for Philip.

    In fairness Diana was known to be a massive Newcastle fan. She had trials with them as a teenager
