Jezki has floated off it. Ran a cracker of 145 in Ireland last time and has been given 155 for the County Hurdle / Coral Cup <doh> Filthy.

Funny you mention an Irish horse, the entries in the handicaps look dominated by Irish horses. It could be a long four days for British trainers, especially those going for handicaps

............... and the Bumper and the Cross Country Chase
 
I had the festival mag drop onto the mat this week and read the feature on Gordon Elliott. I'd forgotten that his great 8 from 2018 started off in dismal circumstances on the Tuesday with his banker of the meeting (Apples Jade) turned over. From zero on Tues evening to 8/21 over the next 3 days. And in 5 of those 21 races he had no runners. I've also seen a stat somewhere (I'll have to dig it out) that following Gordy blind in the handicaps returns a profit. Obviously Veneer of Charm helped enormously in 2018 prevailing at 33/1.
Re today's NH fayre another lazy bet. Multiples involving the fat man from Somerset entries at Taunton and Ludlow. Good luck all.

Don’t forget, troops, that in the last 2 terms Irish horses have won 8/10 handicap hurdles. Not a great surprise that the old boy handicapper is being a bit sterner this year after calls that in ’17 and ’18 he had been far too lenient.

Coole Cody off 139 (11-1 in impost terms) now guaranteed a run in the ‘Pertemps Final’. And 50’s is still available!

Spicy chicken pasta salad. A tad too spicy and I had to drink 2 (rather than the usual 1) buckets of water. 4/10.

Absolutely. The most shocking decision since the last most shocking decision.

The old girls jumping had gone to pot though. If she jumps she should win against just 2 opponents this afternoon. Strange they are persisting with her though rather than sending her to the old breeding sheds as she is a 3 time winner, cost £120k and would be a valuable addition to any paddock. Unless they think they can nick ‘black type’ further down the line.
 
hi fellas!

musselburgh,2 45:

although MONSIEUR CO has to concede lumps of weight here,especially to yesterdays winner john williams,but hes still on a workable mark,compared to the past,he still rates a very solid candidate,as he won well here recently,and can go well again..
