Bobs Worth must be a cert for the GC.

Lac Fontana on the Friday would be the other one I fancy.

If The New One wins on Tuesday I'm gonna be laughing. On at a range of prices from 33s down to 4s.

What do you all fancy this week?

If Arvika Legionnaire wins I'll be astonished. Think SDG is a banker.

Otherwise, swap AP for Big Bucks and I agree with ya.

Going for Our Connor in the Champion Hurdle tomorrow but you could make a case for any of the big 4 in that one.

Get off to a great start with

Western Boy in the first race tomorrow. Should be around the 20/1 mark.

Why? Out of curiosity, not a pop?

Travelling all over the Fly last time and couldn't get past, can't see why that form would be reversed.

It's mainly down to fact I just like horse TBH and it's won me a fair few bob over last years or so, put down a devastating run here last year, granted that was a different race.

Don't get me wrong the Fly is an awesome beast but there are 3 younger bucks who will push the old boy this year
