    I have my doubts whether he has beaten all that much stick - there are others with much stronger form on paper. Having said that, he does it very easy on heavy ground.

    Might as well put a tutu on him as well as he is the bridesmaid at best!

    So after all the nonsense, news to no one that Samcro goes Ballymore and Apples Jade goes Mares as they always were going to <whistle>

    Hopefully the rain wises up a bit and the grounds not bottomless during the week. Not long now boys <cheers>

    Surely she wants 3miles even on soft ground? Looked terrific over the trip the last twice, hopefully her presence will help us get a backable price on the good thing!

    Really think Footpad is an amazing price in the Arkle at 11/8. One danger in Petit Mouchoir. Saint Calvados form doesn't stack up to that lofty mark. Brain Power has to turn himself inside out. The rag is there for a day out.

    No idea why they left Herecomestheboom in mate but pretty certain (99.9%) that he will be scratched tomorrow and wait for Aintree.

    Unfortunately, I have been disconnected since Wednesday for reasons of force majeure and when I return I see the large number of casualties that have occurred.

    For the first day I have No comment (25/1) for the Hunt Chase, but it has not had good results in heavy, in soft won in Plumpton. Finally I have Coo Star Sivola (15/1) who has not won in heavy but won in soft.

    The big news for me is that Samcro (16/1) goes to Ballymore. For Wednesday I also have Croos Peak in the Bumper (25/1) that won in soft to heavy a Listed in Cheltenham and to a lesser extent Bonbon Au Miel (33/1) in RSA that won in Cork and Navan in heavy and Le Breuil (21/1) for the Coral Cup.

    Geraghty on Rhinestone rather than the Gifford horse who he rode last time in the bumper is interesting.
