Joseph tuite birthday today and only found 1 runner, tigerten 720 chelmsford 11/2 worth a cheeky £10er GL if you play
Looks like the wind op did the trick for Protektorat. Hitman needs a summer on his back - still raw and green but has run a good race. statsdontlie.com
I think Adagio left his race on the Cheltenham hill but take nothing away from Monmiral - very good performance. What will they do with him next season I wonder - Champion Hurdle route or novice chasing?
Managed to grab a cheeky slice of 9/2 on my ultimate cliff horse Waiting Patiently. I get the feeling it is now or never.
Amazing performance that - looked right back to his best. Was it just the cheekpieces? Everything bar the second was beaten at the cross fence.
He beat nothing though, once Native River failed to start properly (again) and the other departed from the lead, it was a handicapper chasing a grade 1 horse.
It usually takes a true two-and-a-half-miler to win the Aintree Hurdle so I've gone for Song For Someone to put that shocking run last time out behind him and continue his progression over his optimum trip.
Certainly didn't go a yard. Needs a full medical check-up. A horse with his form before these last two abysmal runs cannot go 'off' just like that, surely?
In the bumper at Aintree (17:15) a sneaky e/w on Wheres Maud Gone. We'll soon find out where she's gone!
