Good Luck

With Douvan's defection and Finian's Oscar's declaration, the Henry VIII Novices Chase has suddenly become the best race on Sandown's card. Looks a really strong renewal.

Who you going with? Brain Power?

Who you going with? Brain Power?

North hill Harvey , I wasn't impressed with finians oscars jumping last time and the fences at sandown take some jumping. Tizzard so horses aren't firing for me.

I quite fancy the (current) outsider of the lot - Sceau Royal. Only beaten a neck by North Hill Harvey at Cheltenham and 5lbs better off today.

BRAIN POWER wins lads and goes favourite for the Arkle!

I'm sorry, I've had another look and I'm taking on brain power and finians Oscar. When north hill Harvey wins I'll buy you a large drink. In fact I'll buy you and Nicky Henderson a large drink.

 

[DreverSpur]

Finians Oscar to prove he should be going to the Arkle after hosing up tomorrow lads

I don't know, there has been no nudge nudge wink wink from SBC. Thought he may have had a view on this one being from the Hendo barn.

Don’t care what he wins at the festival as long as he does 9/2 to win any race!

 

[Bostonbob]

Quite happy to take 10/1 about Highland Lodge in the Becher.

 

[Benvenuto Cellini]

Finians probably better running over 2m4 then dropping back for the Arkle like Captain Chris. Small field tomorrow unlikely to produce the sort of test you get in the Arkle.

All over Blaklion tomorrow I know not very original but well handicapped dropped 2lbs for his 2nd at wetherby ran well over the national except when not seeing out the distance!

 

[Bostonbob]

Yep, reasonably well handicapped but it's 5/2 in a handicap a lot of trainers target every year. He may sluice up but i'm happier going each way 10/1 with 4 places than win only 5/2 in this renewal.

I did take the 4/1 on Monday for him! As you knew he would run, I like your thinking but with a run behind him dropped in the weights and not the strongest field hard seeing him beat. One at an ew price is AS DE MEE seems to be made for the fences and likes aintree too. He too had a prep race and definate ew shout!

3.05 Navan FINE RIGHTLY 12/1 e/w
Ran a lovely race last time over an inadequate trip, obviously the Mullins fav will be hard to beat if he jumps round but this fella should run very well indeed.
