Good Luck

 

Carolinae 355 wolves 5/1 seeks compo for last years unlucky second in this .
Just Cameron 9/1 205 weth , overpriced in this

 

BISHOPS ROAD 16/1 has a big chance in the Welsh National tomorrow.
The Lees know how to have one ready for this race and this one arrives here fit and on a very handy mark.

 

Mysteree 12/1 for me in the Welsh National. Pobbles Bay, Folsom Blue, Rock the Kasbah others i considered but Mysteree is my only bet.

 

Glad I didnt waste any each way money!

 

What's the weather like in Wales, is it pissing down?

 

Probably, its Wales

 

In that case chase the spud,the more rain the better.

 

Interesting to see Top Gamble potentially carrying 12st 9 tomorrow at Wetherby Got to be the heaviest weight carried for a while that!

 

Well unfortunately for you both I backed both a few days ago!! And the form I have been in this week. Means they will probably take each other down over the first!!

 

Talking of weather, ASK THE WEATHER MAN at a massive 10/1, can't see anything else beating it, ticks every single box

 

1st pref is chepstow , surely that's an easier assignment ........

 

After missing out on all of today’s fun due to football I’m trying to make up for it tomorrow,

Couple of Leopardstown picks to start off

1:50 Real Steel 11/4
3:00 Polidam 11/2

 

Well unfortunately for you both I backed both a few days ago!! And the form I have been in this week. Means they will probably take each other down over the first!!

Not worried about the 6lb rise for winning a weaker race!?

 

Assuming it goes ahead I'll take an ew punt on a couple of outsiders in the marathon slog at Chepstow. Houblon Des Obeaux @ 20s and Silsol @ 28s. For start I'm not convinced that there anything much in this field, certainly no Native River. Of the favourites, Chase the Spud is 22lb and 14lb respectively worse terms with HDO and Mysteree from their Uttoxeter meeting. Beware the Bear looked beaten for all money in his last outing before rallying in the last half mile. Folsom Blue has to defy a 5 year high mark. Wild West Wind faces his toughest assignment by some way and I'm not convinced Rock the Kasbah will want it bottomless. Houblon Des Obeaux has performed with credit in a few of these marathons without getting his head in front and ran well enough in this last year albeit a remote 3rd behind Native River. This slower ground may just help him and slow down some of his younger rivals. The trip is an unknown factor with Silsol but he loves mud and has a chance off his chase mark if he stays with Bryony Frost taking off a further 5lbs. Good luck everyone.

 

Welsh National. On a quick look at this I have narrowed it down to Wild West Wind (10/1), Chase The Spud (11/1), and Mysteree (12/1), in that order. It could be a bit windy in the West

 

Chepstow abandoned?

 

it is.

 

Guess we'll find out later but why the **** is UNISON 40/1 in the 3 40 Kempton fancy it to win!

 

Your Gifted goes again in the 1 45, 2nd last time over c&d, tougher race though. 16/1 though i'll back it e/w again could nab a place again, might even spring a surprise
