    I can't help thinking Sharjah might be a bit of value at 4/1 in the Morgiana. He won it last year on good ground (previously won the Galway Hurdle on soft) and is still rated 3lbs ahead of Klassical Dream - for whom this is the first test in open company. I'm not convinced last season's novice from was that good and I think 1/2 for this is plenty short for the fav.

    2.25 Cheltenham- WARTHOG- 33/1 ew

    Could end up with egg on my face but can’t see him going off this price tomorrow. Does seem like an all or nothing horse but goes well fresh and has had a wind op. Can easily forgive his run at the festival as it was very a wierd race. But his run on comeback last season at Sandown was very impressive with some decent horses behind him that day. David pipe has great record in this meeting (3rd behind Nicholls and Hobbs) and everyone thinks Eamon an Cnic is the first choice but maybe wrong I don’t think Scudamore will be able to do 10st 6! You know the horse will get the trip he could also get a fairly easy lead with Knockanauss coming out and altho Lizzie Kelly’s could take him on still think tactics could fall on his lap. He goes in the ground and at 33/1 with a lot firms paying first 5 I think he is a super ew bet

    Scudamore has ridden at 10 stone in the last year.

    Not for me. The two I like in the race are Lady In Hiding and Pink Sheets but I am loathed to oppose either or back both. Nice little race. Presuming Ed in the Uttoxeter race.

    At the moment it has the looking of a David Pipe Gamble or could just be a coincidence at Cheltenham tomorrow!! All his horses have shortened quite dramatically

    Seems a massive price when you suspect that they aren’t just here for some Xmas shopping <laugh>

    I've gone for the muggy double of the two favourites in the first two races, who despite having penalties to carry, I think they are a class above their rivals (really hoping so with both too).

    I really like the chances of Minella Warrior who should come on bundles from return run and Ramses De Teilee looks like he could get an easy lead in the next, i've had a saver on Potters Legend who showed plenty on return to suggest he retains plenty of ability.

    Then on, it gets really difficult. I think a lot will depend on how bad the ground is, I quite like Happy Diva in the big race, who knows what will take them along in the hurdle, so I think I will have a muggy bet on whatever lines up prominently.

    I then really like Remastered who went off too hard at Chepstow but should be perfect because of that blow out. I think it could be a good old day for the Pipes!!

    I’m taking on the fave in the first. Think the tizzard horse will reverse the form of the fob horse and wasn’t impressed with the fave at Chepstow. I quite like happy diva so you can put a line through her, sorry.

    Who what when gets the nod in the bumper at hq for me has proved herself with several wins. Has penalty but won’t stop her winning tomorrow at a nice price.

    I'm taking a leap of faith on the wellbeing of Belami Des Pictons. A long time off and pulled up on his first comeback race but clearly they still think he retains his ability.

    All about Slate House for me today fellas. Looked a monster last month and could make a mockery of his mark today.

    I agree. I have however also had an ew on Splash Of Ginge at 25/1. This horse will win again, **** knows when that will be so i've covered it just in case.
