    I know a fair bit about horsies due to Sir Alex's close relationship with my husband. I know you probably all think he hates him for leaving him with such a **** team compared to the golden years, but he did leave him really nice red wine behind at the training ground which is helping David numb the day to day grind at a once great club.

    Day 1 Tuesday - Davids Selections (mine too as I am right behind him)

    Vantour
    Dodging Bullets
    Hadrians Approach
    My Tent or Yours
    Quevega
    Foxrock
    Attaglance

    Kevin Keegan is a quitter too.

    Very good of you to take the time to pass on your tips for the Festival meeting Mrs Moyes. I guess your husband is having to dodge quite a few bullets at the moment.

    I'll pop into your tent with a bottle of red if the selections win.

    If your old man's horse selection is as good as his team selection, I'll pass on those. But thanks for the info, I now know which nags to avoid.

    Don't normally go for faves to my cost but you wont lose backing Willie Mullins/Ruby Walsh combinations over the week and Big Shoe is my banker for the festival.

    Western Warhorse (IRE)

    Holywell (IRE)

    Jezki (IRE)
