    What do people think will eb the final field in this race come next tuesday? i presume the top five of SS,AF, CC, Menorah and BSM will run? what of the others? Cristol Bonus must be doubtful? Kid Cassidy?? The other 3?? Thinking of getting my Paddy bet on soon before odds on top 5 come down again

    There is a chance less than 8 go to post so if you're looking for an each way play best to do it now while they're offering first 3.
    I think Kid Cassidy will go for the Grand Annual, Cristol Bonus drifting like a barge on Betfair out to 120 so have to assume that one goes elsewhere

    Had Sprintre Sacre and backed Al Ferof on Paddy Power also to achieve the same profit if either wins.
    2 Horse race for me...

    Is it worth backing the rest? If Sprintre Sacre wins then doesnt matter if I back the rest. If al ferof wins just eats into that profit as such.

    Dan imo menorah stnds no chance winning at leadt, stable is not in great form and there are 2 way classier jumps than him in AF and SS then you have cue card who isnt the best and dont rate but stilln better chaser than menorah. Good luck anyway

    I guess this has turned into a bit of a nightmare for them really?

    Has anyone taken advantage of this generous offer?

    I backed Cue Card each way with PP at 7s, I also get 3 places as I placed the bet over a week ago.
    4 of the 5 big boys stood their ground, only Peddlers defecting has reduced the quality to be fair, I still think it'll be a great race.
    And before there's a wave of sympathy for PP, Sprinter Sacre hasn't won this already and the last 3 offers PP gave all got turned over, even if SS should win I''d say they're still massively on top over the past few years....

    True Grizz. I backed all of the horses today for a profit bar Foildubh as I reckon he's got no chance.

    I suppose with Dunguib and Cue Card they would have made a fortune with these getting beat. Should still be a good race, like you say, the defection of PC is a blow but has made it a better betting proposition I guess. An Al Ferof win would be dreamy!

    Surely anyone waiting on Zen is clever enough to work out how to back all of the horses in order to achieve a profit. In all fairness, it ain't hard.

    £60 on Al Ferof @ 5/2
    £25 on Cue Card @ 6/1
    £15 on Menorah @ 9/1

    All of the above generate a nice profit, BlackStair and Foildubh cannot win and all other bases covered. If SS wins £100 back in your sky rocket!

    Do it DB, may even split a little bit of your Al Ferof profit on Blackstair, just incase!

    I think Foildubh has got more chance of sprouting a fanny than winning this so left him out of mine, but I did a little on BSM too.
