Gwaaaaaaaaan you beauty - superb race and what a performance from the winner.

SHOUT!!!

 

[Doalittle]

Disappointed with that round of jumping from Brain Power.

Finions Oscar three miles.

Munir has some hand in the Arkle. That's a pretty good back up there!

 

[Reebok]

someone tell him its MALAYA not MALALA

 

[floridaspearl]

Charnel for me

 

[CaptainPops]

A few bets for me today:

Aintree 1.30pm viva steve 12/1 each way. Bit of a risk as depends how horse copes with the fences but I seem to recall this one was bought as a potential national horse and if they have any real desires in that they need to get his handicap mark up. I m expecting a big run

Sandown 3.30pm Doing Fine 5/1 ..has decent course form and can put up a good show.

In the Many Clouds chase I fancy Definitly Red to win this...

Little mini boom there with definitly red. I wonder where next for this horse?

Any number of Grade 2s he could go for - Cotswold Chase, Denman Chase or if they fancy handicapping what about the Grimthorpe or what used to be the Racing Post Chase at Kempton in February?

 

[Reebok]

Just 2 weeks after vowing to place no more sentimental bets, I have just backed Apache Stronghold at Navan

 

[OddDog]

I fancied Ar Mad for this last year but he went off like a nutter. Could he put it all together today having got his ground?

 

[Reebok]

I hope so Oddy

 

[OddDog]

I hope so Oddy

Didn't jump reebs - never met a single fence on a good stride.

Very frustrating that they won't run Waiting Patiently anywhere - he had Politologue well beat last season at Haydock. Was entered in the John Durkan but pulled out. I hate seeing good horses staying on their box

Best of luck reebs. Good old Flemenstar running too, hard to believe he is 12. Seems like only yesterday when Peter Casey was effing and blinding after he won the Irish Arkle

 

[Fazor]

Just the 1 for me today, liking the look of:

Wolves 5.45

Zapper Class 16/1

 

[Reebok]

Apache was a distant 4th, that'll learn me. Possibly

 

[beeforsalmon]

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.

No harm done, place money anyway. Mullins second string caning the first string

 

[Reebok]

I want to be a happy chappy after the London National!

 

[Reebok]

and I'm not

Good luck if playing on, but I'm offski

 

[ChelseaCOE2012]

5 45 Wolves - Mysterious Glance 100/1 e/w. Well too over priced, and will bounce back to form soon, such a low mark, you're getting 100/1 on what should be a 16/1 shot, worth a nibble

 

[Monkeyalive]

Just spoke to Phil Kirby Sakee City his best chance today

I've read the forum for years and these horsey people you know must be taking the p@ss as your info is terrible... Although you did at least say best chance.... My best chance of a ride is next door but one, no guarantees though
