Expecting a big run from Long House Hall in the Coral Cup.Snapped up 25s earlier and the price on this lad is going fast!
Not the best of days today. Here's hoping to a better one tomorrow. All you need is one good day to make a successful week.
I am already on More of That at a good odds but given the run of Minella Rocco surely Vyta de roc is worth an ew saver? The only drawback is the jockey.
Pricewise sponged 1 of my tips already for tomorrow, goodbye price Neptune - Yorkhill / Vigil - Sky bet offer once again money back on first race RSA - No More Heroes - Saver on Vyta Du Roc, form is bombproof. Coral Cup - Hunters Hoof - Henderson tinkering. Champ Chase - Sizing Granite - Each way at 28s and Also in the without UDS market - huge price. X Country - Cantlow - Bolger magic Fred Winter - Our Thomas / Messire Des Obeaux - Easterby horse has a very similar profile to Hawk High when he won this, im very keen on this at good prices. Bumper - New To This Town - Form of his last win is superb.
Would be great to see a 12yo Balthazar King win a 3rd x country chase tomorrow, on his return from that horrific injury in the Grand National last year. I think realistically it's a big ask, but it would be the highlight of my week if he did win.
Off to Cheltenham early tomorrow and really looking forward to it. The Romford Pele @ 33s in the Coral Cup looks like a punt to me. Chased Thistlecrack home in a glue pot lto and the ground will be far more in his favour. He's a 150 rated over jumps and races here off 140. Trip maybe a tad on the short side but he'll be staying on up the hill that's for sure. I'd love to see the northern raider Seeyouatmidnight run a big race in the RSA. Balthazar King in XC. I've had a bit ew on Gods Own @ 33s and Just Cameron @100s in the Queen Mum. Should have played on the without market but that feels like cheating to me. I've been up and down the Fred Winter card countless times and still have no idea. Opted for Lizzie Kelly and Coo Star Sivola @ 25s. Not considered the bumper and JP wins the opener with the jolly. Whatever happens it will beat the absolute **** out of working for living. Good luck all on day 2.
My confidence in NO MORE HEROES is slightly waning tbh as More of That's just seems to have so much confidence behind him now. Really hoping Un de Seaux shows them whose the boss tomorrow!
Wouldn't you really love to see Sprinter Sacre or Sire De Grugy to reproduce their very best form and win? I myself have to admit a little bit of grudging respect for the bell end with the Mr Blobby colours today!
Champion bumper looks a right old minefield! Two from the Mullins batallion caught my eye. CASTELLO SFORZA, who won a nice sales race at Punchestown, with some great form (Death Duty in 3rd is a listed bumper winner, and Sunni May who was second has seen off SOME NECK, who has graded form ties with Gurteen). The other one who I absolutely loved when I saw his run and his attitude was the VERY MUCH SO 20/1. He had to go very wide on his only start but quickened and then battled tenaciously to see off the lovely SNOW FALCON, finding more when pressed. Very interesting they bring him here after that big absence and I really like young D J Mullins the jockey. 687 days is a long time but to bring him back here is most interesting.
UDS probably doesn't get the credit he deserves IMHO! All he does is win (or fall) yet be never seems to please people for some reason. I love him, think he's a fabulous horse, and one we ain't seen the best of. Be great to see him and Sprinter go toe to toe from 2 out. Hope, if he does do it, he at least can get some credit tomorrow, even begrudgingly! He ain't no Ricci horse either!
