    I have picked mostly favourites I suppose.
    i have gone for an outsider in the last one though - Reindeer Dippin, another of the McCain horses and likes it round here.

    Away from Aintree, Odd Ball can go in again at Wolver tonight at 4/1 generally, have had it backed on all it's wins and hoping it does the business again tonight.

    Easy. Al Ferof has been ruined by that heavy jump at Cheltenham.

    You were right with Al Ferof... I do think Al Ferof looked a bit jaded though...

    They need to freshen him up. Summer off. Start again in the Autumn and see what he's got left.

    Al Ferof has been disappointing since his chase debut at Cheltenham. Think he's going backwards.

    What's he going to beat over hurdles at the staying distances?

    Why didn't we follow the Aintree script?

    Random win for Follow The Plan, who wouldnt get near any of these on an average day, Menorah, who couldn't jump a stick all season hacks up, McCain sends one that wins over the big uns, and Big Bucks saunters in again.


    Welcome to Liverpool- home of the comedians.



    All we need next is a commentary from Kenny Dalglish and we're well set.

    It's ridiculous. Think sensibly then cross that out and do the opposite! <laugh>

    This is my worst day punting ever, unless Timesawastin wins the last.

    I've done alright lads. My bet was Gullinbursti/Big bucks double and it won with that non runner. £44.44 profit.

    We've had a stinker with non runners today (and tomorrow). Gullinbursti on the ground apparently and Midnight Minx. Presumably ground or she's not gotten over the problems she had last month.

    What have the jockeys said about the ground when they've been on it? Anyone have an accurate description?
