Just Newbury today in the UK, which is where I will put-up a couple who, hopefully, will give a good account. Going just about perfect for NH racing. So, briefly, and without further ado:

(15:00) Dashel Drasher
Ran some crackers last season and should be fit for his second run of this season. Rex Dingle rides for the Jeremy Scott yard.
A measly 2/1 seems to be about the best price at the moment.

(15:35) Ed Keeper
Hasn't raced too much, but is an improving hurdler who should be up to running a decent race in this event. Sam Twiston-Davies on board for the Sam Thomas stable.
10/3 best price, in several places, at time of writing.

Nice one Swanny - must be all that snow in München

Yes, Oddy, had a bit of snow, but Munich is amazing how it gets away with seldom having the really bad weather that affects other areas, in particular. the north of the country. Wife does the shopping twice a week and is usually lucky, but not always. Today was really nasty, cold with a fair bit of sleet.
Thanks again for all the kind words, guys, we all have 'runs' of luck, and it all can turn sour quickly. Will keep trying though. Have a good and successful weekend, folks!

I took the train from Munich to Berlin today, it was pretty bad to the north of Nürnberg
