    Master Minded, Moscow Flyer, Sprinter Sacre....I suspect this year's winner won't quite be up to those standards...

    Days Hotel might nick a place but it's a messy looking affair.

    Another third for me. Good win for Boston Bob though, but the jock must need nerves of steel to ride him!

    Boston Bob... Well I never... After coming behind Dynaste in the Ryanair, and how Dynaste ran yesterday, I didn't think he would win this today...

    Well done Bobby !

    That was impressive acceleration. Showed a very good turn of foot going to the last, lost a couple of lengths at the last then flew past the leader to win going away.

    Nicholls has four to choose from, with presumably Cedre Bleu being the stable's number one. However, I am keen on Rebel Rebellion, winner of the Grand Sefton in December over course and distance. Got to be worth an ew at 22-1

    Wasn't sponging Red - he is in my comp picks!

    If you jump them well you'll always have a chance... Ma Filleule simply jumped the best of the rest...

    Nice shout Beefy

    Another absolute stormer by Tatenen to finish 4th who was never closer than he was at the finish. Delighted for him.

    Shout BOS and well done on the place with Tatenen Roto. Ma Filleuele was highly impressive there and look's a serious future GN contender on that evidence.

    Not a bad form boost for The Package tomorrow with both Holywell and Ma Filleule winning today.
