Great finish. Well done First Lieutenant backers. Unlucky if you were on Menorah. Silviniaco Conti never traveled like he did in the GC
Jumping was the key and 1st Lieu was the best one... Menorah ran very gamely but Conte didnt... A couple did back him so well done...
Considering his question marks, I felt Menorah ran a belter. SC wasn't helped by the bad mistake 4 out, but not sure he'd have won anyway. I'm long over the cliff with Zarkandar - not deserting now
Lost on the first 2 races and now the hardest race of the day comes up next... **** it, im having a £10er on em all so i can say ive had a winner today... ps- The New One has my money on him for the next...!!!
Got to say i was surprised by the lack of pick up on the ole boy, but once he clattered that fence i thought he was doomed... Shocked, no... Surprised, a little... Next...
I'm on TS each way for a point but I'm almost convinced by the New One backers as well. Going to back him for a point for the 2014 Champion Hurdle instead. 8/1 will be gone if he does what you lot think he's capable of.
slight profit on the day so far but my main bet for day 1 is up next THE NEW ONE, the start of what could be a very successful festival for Sam Twiston Davies
