    Two good runs there and Alvarado did well to get 4th and get some place money at least.

    Well done Pineau De Rae and anyone who was on or placed.

    I've had an each wayer on Scots Gaelic at 25/1 in the 5.10. Trainer/jockey won this last year. They do very well when teamed together in general. It won easily LTO. The revised mark could be workable.

    1st and 4th, with Pineau Du Ray being my main bet. Was really took by how it stayed on at Cheltenham last time out, and the hurdles to National route always tends to be successful. It looked the winner from about 3 or 4 out.

    Just need Katgary to make a very good day an excellent, splendid day!

    We'll see soon. The fav will probably win but I can't back that short in a 22 runner handicap when he carries extra weight compared to last time.

    Agreed, fav was unlucky at Chelts and should be winning but like you say, much too short in this.

    My mistake. Fifth. Still got money as I did it with Paddy Power.

    Nothing worse than a jealous loser.
