Better than evens looks a steal and I can't desert this one who did me a massive favour at Cheltenham and will find this race much more easier to boss than the Brown Advisory. Still can't get his demolition job in the Kauto Star out of my head and I think next year's King George is a realistic target. Loved the way Cobden dictated matters at Cheltenham and once challenged pulled out more and the fact he is unbeaten at Punchestown in two bodes well too. Always a concern when favourites come here after hitting the target at other spring festivals but he's had a long enough break and this doesn't look the strongest renewal to me. Yielding ground not a bother and this very likeable sort has to go close. Shame unseated at Sandown as coukd well be unbeaten this season and what price would he have been then? Looks value to me to put these to the sword and finish novice campaign with a bang.

Second at this meeting last year to Cashedale Lad who is a dual Listed winner since and wasn't disgraced at Grade 1 level behind Lossiemouth too so on that form alone my fancy has a great chance. That was a novice as has her wins been since but two miles on goodish ground looks perfect and will handle the big field scenario too. Was coming to go close on handicap debut last time at Kelso when well backed and but for a late mistake may well of won. Off the same mark here must go well and if ironing out any mistakes looks a cracking EW bet to nowt. Has to improve to win but travels well and has a touch of class was saved a hard race last time when chance went with the blunder and hopefully that kindness is rewarded today. Proven at track and in a big field will get a nice pace to aim at and had to hit the frame at the very least. Could be some day for Cobden.

Was an agonising second in this race last year when worried out of it late on by a big outsider and off just a 4lb higher mark and with Harry Cobden on this time has to be the knocker EW bet of the day. That was second time had run well here as was second in a big field maiden hurdle too so proven in massive fields is a strong pick. Has a 10lb pull with Laughing John for 8l defeat a couple of runs ago and has had a spin on the flat last time out too so can't believe hasn't been laid out for this. Yard had a nice winner on Saturday at Sandown and it always catches my eye when Cobden jocked up for yard. The drier the ground gets the more I'd fancy this one.

This doesn't look the hottest race and unless any the debutants are a bit special this filly looks the one to be on. Made a nice debut to be second to one who'd had a run and though was pretty keen ran on well to be second showing a good attitude battling on well. Dam has produced three winners including a Group 2 winner, a 1m6f winner in Bahrain and plenty who handled goodish ground. Main rival could be Sounds Great but on pedigree may want much further and heavy ground so the safest bet is the favourite. Group 1 entries in the Pretty Polly & Irish Oaks suggest this one may be smart and on her own breeding page a step up in trip on decent ground is what she wants. Must be the one to beat.

Made a very pleasing comeback proving step up in trip suited and that he'd trained on. Needed all of the 7f to get up to beat the reopposing Jamestown and should get the mile here. Better ground suits so fancy he'll go close with that run under his belt. Was just behind Puerto Rico in a maiden last summer and that one has won a Group 2 and a pair of Group 1's since and that form is solid. Is 2lb worse off with Jamestown but with this looking a stiff test might be better suited to it and I like his chances for shrewd yard.

Rapidly progressive and has only had three starts for new yard, who are masters with sprinters, winning the last two in good fashion on the all weather after finishing down the field on debut for stable in the Ayr Gold Cup on soft ground. Seems to relish good ground and has won over an easy 5f, a stiff 5f and an easy 6f so seems to be adaptable and on good ground this stiff 5f looks sure to suit. Yard has only sent two over to Ireland since January 2022 and one of those won. Looks an improving sort and not without an ew chance here. Seems to handle decent sized fields so should be tough enough and this lightly enough raced 5yo is now worth a crack at Listed level.

Twice caught the eye on raids to England and has run well the last twice at Newcastle in the trial and in a hot fillies handicap on All Weather Champion's Day. Travelled smoothly the last time and ran a cracker in second to the smart Stateira who looks a filly to follow. Hasn't won in turf yet but has run some good races including on good ground to be second three times. 7f seems her trip but the stiff 6f here could be ideal and this lightly raced sort looks ready to strike as will travel well and should enjoy the going. Looks on a fair mark given best all weather form and rates an ew bet for yard who have had three winners in the past fortnight from 15 runners or so.

Made a very pleasing debut for new yard after 148 days off and looked all over the winner at Newcastle last time before tiring late on and only getting nabbed close home. Has gone up a 1lb but very good claimer booked and 7lb off puts my fancy on a mark a 1lb lower than last turf win. Trip is fine and handles decent ground so on just second start for new if any improvement can be found has a serious chance . Looks too well handicapped to ignore and was once rated in the 90's so on the back of a good comeback run must have a chance off this mark now with good claimer booked.

This must be the winner Oisin Orr has come down to ride and this bang in form horse must be a big fancy stepping back up in trip now back on turf. Was beaten a head on good ground the last time on turf over a trip just a shy short of this one. 2/3 on the all weather since that Redcar run and is a massive player here with proven stamina and ability to handle quick ground in the locker. As Oisin Orr rides Wetherby so well I'm interested he has come here. Yard had a winner yesterday and are going well this month with 9 winners already from 38 runners. Must have a big chance here.

Really catches my eye that Oisin Orr comes here rather than ride Richard Fahey's horse at Wetherby where Orr rides really well and returns some amazing stats. Has a 43% strike rate and a +£57.89 lsp there over the last 5 years so fact he's coming to Nottingham instead he might have a chance or two of bagging a winner. This one is a speedy sort who is 4lb lower than last win on turf and that came at Lingfield on quick ground and that place is not too dissimilar to here. Comes here in good form from the all weather and won nicely last time out and though up in grade here has an ew squeak.

Made a fine stable debut at Newcastle last time under this young pilot and really caught the eye travelling well up with the pace only to be nabbed close home by the bang in form Saytarr. Has a nice draw here and could get first run on these returning to turf and will like the ground and trip. Came good this time last year in Ireland on decent ground and if new yard can eke out any improvement has to go close. Doesn't win often enough but is consistent and a mile on good ground looks sure to suit. Big shout and I do like claimer onboard who is having a cracking season.

I've been keeping an eye on this one as do like his chances and kept my powder dry as was entered in a shorter race on the card. However on fast ground this trip will suit better and win nicely at Ascot last time from a subsequent winner. Was beaten a neck the time before by Way Of Stars over a trip too short and thst one could give my fancy a form boost in the earlier handicap on the card. Yard only had two runners this month with one winning but this one looks on a fair mark on handicap debut and will relish the ground as long as not watered too much. Mind you it'll be quick going by the time this race goes off and I'm saving my Nap for the lucky last. Will like the track, trip and fast ground so lots to like about this improving sort who caught the eye last time travelling well and showing a good attitude to win. Should relish this hill and looks the best EW bet of the day.

Unbeaten over fences and won well here last time over 3m but won't mind the drip in trip either as went well the time before at Newbury when faced with a speedier test. That Newbury form looks better now too as had stablemate Holloway Queen behind who went on to win the NH Chase at Cheltenham amongst others who've boosted the form since too. Will like decent ground and this decent jumper handled these stern fences last time and can make all here.

Not sure this is his best trip but will bounce off the ground and if getting an easy lead might just burn this lot off. Has been on good form this season over hurdles and though wasn't at his best at Cheltenham last time when running back over fences wasn't knocked about once chance had gone. Return to hurdles and smaller field here instead of the hustle and bustle of the likes of the Grand Annual will suit and with a liking of good to firm ground won't mind if it continues to dry out. Paul Nicholls will want to make some statements today that he can reason as Dan Skelton takes all the plaudits and he has targeted this meeting well before. Has got some solid chances today and this one at his best will go well here.

I thought he pulled out much more when challenged by Road To Home in the Kim Muir and I should know as had some nice punts rolling on to the Willie Mullins raider. Shouldn't be much between them again but the stiffer finish here might suit my fancy more and he won't mind it if the ground gets quicker too. The form of the Kim Muir is working out well too as there have been plenty placed in Nationals since and Ask Brewster is still young enough to think best days are ahead. Disappointed when fancied for the London National here earlier in the season but the ground would of been softer than ideal. Showed a good attitude to get back up last time and just the sort I like when they face this stiff finish. Will be suited to the ground more than most I think and is still improving by the look of a career best last time.

Has to improve and obviously stable second string, but Tristan Durrell is 121 on this horse from three rides and gets a good tune out of him. Ran no real race in the Greatwood over hurdles on debut for yard but won on chase debut and put in a career best winning a Grade 1 at Aintree last time. Has finished 1st & 2nd on ground when there has been firm in the description (as Sporting Life Form Guide states) and won't mind if it dries out even more. Has won at Exeter so won't mind this similar stiff track and stays a bit further so can be smuggled into the race as I'm sure he'll get a good pace to aim at and hopefully fly up the hill to reel in the pacesetters. Thinking Jonbon might find this a bit sharp on fast ground and it interests me yard run him here when Thistle Ask looks the main danger to Jonbon. Could have a squeak as looks the fly in the ointment and is only a 7yo so could still be progressive.

Only distance winner in the field and ran well on this card on this card when rallying gamely and nearly reeling in the winner Mark Of Gold. Proved handled this track and step up in trip this time will suit. Won't mind decent ground and off just a 3lb higher mark than that gallant second last year has to be the EW play. Not disgraced in the Topham last time and can go well here if ridden more patiently. Has proven stamina and has gone well at the track to so looks a fair chance.

Improving sort who is 3 out of 4 for yard and only defeat was in the Truimph Hurdle trial at Cheltenham when third behind Maestro Conti who went so close in the actual Truimph at Cheltenham. Had subsequent Grade 2 winner La Luna Artiste behind that day too and she could very easily enhance that form again in the opener here. Obviously has been targeted at this race as missed out Cheltenham and Aintree and could be a good send off for Harry Cobden as he goes his own way next season for JP McManus. Travels and jumps well and though on a stiff enough mark dropping into a handicap looks a classy sort. Has to run well for yard who have won this twice since 2019 and won't mind decent ground.

Three out four for the yard and only defeat was at Cheltenham in the Truimph Hurdle trial I mention later which is working out well. Will prefer this stiff right handed track better I'm sure. as has won around the likes of Exeter and also will relish quick ground as has already won on going with firm in the description. Gradd 2 Adonis winner at Kempton last time out and though has to give weight away to all looks a progressive sort in what doesn't look a deep race. Lots to like about her emphatic win at Kempton last time out and another won who has been kept for this after swerving Cheltenham and Aintree. Should go well.

Made a pleasing comeback where running as if in need of the race as travelled smoothly at Yarmouth and only weakened into third close home. Will have fitness edge over most of these and has an Oaks entry so further in time will probably suit. Good fast ground should hold no fear and stiffish finish should suit. Made debut behind a subsequent Listed placed horse and with yard returning a slight profit of +£5.17 lsp from their 81 winners from 415 runners at a healthy 20 strike rate at this track I like their only runner on the card.

Yard win this last year and look to have a massive chance here with a similar if not better diet than last year's winner. Comes here with better form than last year's winner as ended last season just beaten by a stablemate in the Group 1 Futurity at Doncaster and has to have a mighty chance here. Form of debut maiden win at Galway looks so much better now as the third Christmas Day did me a right favour last time out in the Ballysax at a nice price and is a dual Group 3 winner now. Has all the best form in the book, is bred in the purple so should relish this step up in distance based on pedigree and doesn't have to concede any weight so looks a good thing to my eye. Yard's UK raiders haven't clicked yet but this one looks sure to go well and actually looks massive value to me as should be much shorter in the betting.

Unbeaten as a 3yo and though wasn't operating at the level Field Of Gold was is a definite improver who if training on looks sure to go close. Beat Opera Ballo in a Group 2 on final start yet is 2lb better off with that rival who has franked the form with wins at Meydan at Group 1 & 2 level. I love Field Of Gold who definitely has the size and scope to make a 4yo but I feel he might just need this run. Yard clicking into gear with four winners from last 10 sent out in the last week and a couple of those were making seasonal debut so chances are he'll be fit enough and had to be the value bet as long as he's trained on. We'll find that out soon but I like his chances as will relish the ground and seems to have done everything so easily so far and could really be a star this season. Lockinge entry tells you they think he is smart and Ryan Moore booking more than catches the eye.

The drift in price is a slight concern but for me looks the one to best. Will have fitness on his side as has had a pipe opener and had Muddy Mooy a neck behind at Kempton but yet is 2lb better off here now. Also had favourite nearly 4l behind when they both ended last season down the field in the Qipco Group 1 Champion Stakes so should beat that rival again with fitness onside.

The only Dante entry in here so you'd think will want further in time, but this stiff track will suit and made a very pleasing 3yo debut just a couple of weeks ago. Caught the eye travelling well on decent ground at Yarmouth and best a fair field that included a couple of last time out winners and a nice debutant who too is one to follow. Debut win at Southwell last year has thrown up a few winners already so with ground to suit and a stiff finish sure to suit can power away late on here. Luckily dived on when odds against but looks sure to win more races and can give the weight away to main rival Nobody Knows who might find conditions a bit too lively here. Yard rolling out some decent 3yo's this month and 10 of their 11 winners in April from 35 runners have been that age group. This should be another one as looks the one to beat.

Looks absolutely chucked in off a mark of 71 on handicap debut and it catches my eye she comes here instead of taking an easier option on Wednesday where she is entered in a 7f maiden. Her last run wasn't great but she should strip fitter now and one piece of form makes her a standout bet for me. She finished 4th in a Cork maiden last year about 6l behind Havana Anna and that one has won a maiden and Listed race since, in addition to be beating beaten a nose in Group 3 at Longchamp and less than a length in a Group 1 at Newmarket to no less than my fancy's stablemate and top notcher True Love. Yard had a rare handicap winner in Cape Cod recently who bolted up, and she should stay this far as dam has produced 5 winners already from 7f-1m4f. Looks a bombproof EW play but I can see her winning this comfortably.

Alistair Ralph had been going well with his runners around Stratford this season with 5 winners from just 12 runners and a tidy 42% strike returning a healthy +£10.74 lsp. This one was a bumper winner in Ireland but had taken time to get her form together in the UK but was on a fairly stiff mark to begin with. Has been dropped 15lb since making handicap debut for yard and caught the eye with best run last time plodding on into fourth when dropped into a mares' novice hurdle. The 1st & 3rd from that Bangor race have both won since so form at this lowly level looks ok. Best form in Ireland was on slightly less testing ground and decent ground here for the first time could improve. Step up in trip could help too and with yard's record here this season their sole runner on the day and on the card should be looked at closely. EW player for me in what looks an average race and off a mark of 100 looks well handicapped.

I loved the way this one ran on seasonal reappearance when taking out a Listed race at Naas. I'd fancied her there as she had finished last season with a win in a Listed race at the Curragh over 2f further than the trip she faced at Naas whoch is a pretty stiff 10f but she surprised me by making all. She even was challenged by a stablemate and pulled out more so with fitness on her side and a willing attitude has to be the bet here stepping up into Group 3 company. Had good form in England but since transfer to Ireland and getting soft ground has turned a new leaf and looks most progressive. Some classy individuals return to action here and would be better than my fancy but she'll test their fitness and looks a bombproof EW play here with conditions to suit and getting a few pounds as a mare from them. Love her determination and must go well.

This one caught my eye last time at the Curragh on seasonal reappearance when travelling smoothly and looking dangerous before seemingly hitting a wall and fading late on over 6f. Drop in trip will surely suit and should strip fitter today too. The fact that the second and fifth from that race have won since gives the form a solid look and off the same mark here has to go well. Has only won a 5f maiden at Cork in her career but was operating off a mark of 90 last sumner and off 79 here looks well handicapped considering was a major eyecatcher last time. Must be an EW play and the 8-1 nicked last night looked value.

Whilst I do think the NH Chase form looks stronger than the Kim Muir I can't not have a saver on this one who might well have got caught out on the quicker ground at Cheltenham but definitely caught the eye making late gains into fourth. Has been on mine and a few pals radar since making a nice British debut for yard and what can't this operation do? Must of been than plan a long way out and getting softer ground stepping up in trip that definitely looks like it will suit he has to be on the shortlist. Has solid form in competitive handicaps for such a young horse and looks an improver and totally unexposed as a stayer.

Ran a stormer in the NH Chase at Cheltenham and shaped as an even stiffer test would suit and though I backed him ante post he went off a much bigger price on the day due to the doubt about handling quicker ground. That marks up his effort for me and with conditions more in his favour here must go well. Was 11 lengths clear of One Big Bang who went on to finish a few lengths behind Monbeg Genius in the Irish Grand National and on that line of form my fancy just about has the beating of Kim Roque, Ask Brewster and Road To Home. Big weight is a concern but he is a strapping sort and still only a 7yo with best days ahead. Will be grinding on at the death and if avoiding any mistakes could take this easily, however can jump a bit hesitantly and won't want to get too far behind but does look as if he will stay all day. Had peanuts on at 10-1 and though price a bit skinny now looks a bomb proof EW play.

Have to have a crack at our very own sponsored race and the one that catches my eye is this fella who was a staying on 7th in this race last year and that looked a strong renewal. Was probably given a bit much to do but ran on well on what was his seasonal reappearance last year, so fact he has had a spin on the all weather with a very eyecatching staying on second at Kempton a few weeks ago bodes well that could strip fitter today and better last year's 7th. Remember last year's renewal has already thrown up subsequent Lincoln winner Urban Lion who my fancy is a whopping 12lb better off with now. Is only 1lb higher than last year's effort and with 6 places on offer is a cracking price and looks a decent EW poke. Is 5lb higher than last win last May but did beat Sky Safari who is a Grade 3 all weather winner since rated 106 now so all in all Cogitate actually looks on a fair mark. Really like his chances as draw looks okay too.

Got messed about at the start in the Champion Hurdle and was never in the race but I also notice was the second time didn't really perform at Cheltenham and returning to a flatter track will suit here given past form at the likes of Newbury and Ffos Las. Looked a world beater on heavy ground in the competitive William Hill Hurdle at Newbury in February and 15 length defeat of Wellington Arch looks strong form now given that one has taken out two strong handicaps at Uttoxeter and Aintree. Can get on a roll on this easier track and could have this lot toiling if getting away from the field. Stiff mark a slight concern but looked a graded horse at Newbury and will relish the C&D. Could bolt up here despite top weight as I'm not sure this looks the deepest renewal and if ground is really testing he'll love it. Captain Hugo's Morebattle form keeps getting franked and he looks the danger but you'd like to think Tutti Quanti would have eaten that lot up at Kelso. Good thing for me and was close to being the Nap.

Is a big price considering beat Diamond Dealer at Wetherby and relished the softer ground that day. Is 4lb worse off for that short head win but form was boosted when Diamond Dealer came out and won at Kelso dropping in trip but with even softer ground likely here than at Wetherby I think my fancy will confirm placings. Has a stamina laden pedigree on both sides and I just fancy that Diamond Dealer might want slightly better ground. Looks yard second string on jockey bookings but has the better form to my eye. Up 7lb for Wetherby win but is only a 6yo and can go well at a price that looks value compared to the Skelton horse.

Sans Bruit had a tough race just 9 days ago, Traprain Law was pulled up in this race last year and Palacio looks on a stiff mark so to my eye so this expensive purchase from France has to be the play for yard who won this last year. Finished French career well beat in a Grade 1, but had solid form otherwise and it catches my eye that he goes particularly well fresh. Won on career debut, was second over hurdles after 164 days off and won on chase debut after a break of 137 days, so long break before coming here doesn't bother me. Must be the plan, and will relish conditions if the ground stays testing. Won second chase last Autumn from a subsequent Grade 3 chase winner so all in all has plenty of ticks in boxes for shrewd yard.

Very likeable young chaser and has only ever finished outside the top four in 19 career starts and has actually finished in the top 3, 17 times, winning 6 of those races. Most consistent and showed a great attitude when outbatting Jagwar in a competitive handicap last time out. That enigma ran a blinder in the Ultima and was going well enough before unseating in the Grand National and form looks solid. 5lb higher now but this is his trip, goes on any ground and must of been saved for this. Bombproof EW bet and this very consistent horse has to go close for yard going well enough.

Is a bit of an unknown but one stat that catches my eye is dam has produced two first time out winners already and if this one is ready to roll must have a chance on debut. Dante entry catches the eye and very interesting yard pitch him in here on debut in a race they won last year to boot. Could go well as siblings have proved half decent but looking at this one's entry and aspirations yard think he is decent. Could surprise.

Two good places at this course and 3 lb lower than when second in the Great St. Wilfrid here last year. Though a couple of pounds worse off with Intervention when you take into claims, can go well here. Nice draw, bang in the middle, so can track the pace wherever it develops. Goes well for a young jockey. Won second time up last season and obviously likes the 6f here. In fact, I thought he'd won here last season for a tidy punt as he went clear close home but was done by the winner Intervention, who came out of the clouds. Should be cherry ripe after a pipe opener and can run a big race.

I like Aramram who did me a favour last time but draw doesn't look helpful and he might go close but give way to better drawn Prince of India. A heritage handicap winner on the other course here and was a big eyecatcher on seasonal reappearance on the all weather. Should be cherry ripe now and as stays further won't mind a strong pace to aim at from tidy draw. Yard in form with three winners from last 10 sent out. EW chance for sure.

Found 5f at Redcar way too sharp on final start last season but returning to 6f on this galloping track will suit. Bustled up subsequent Group 3 winner Calendar Girl at Donny in a valuable stakes race the time before last run and that's good form. In fact 6f win at York worked out well with plenty of subsequent Listed form since and if ready to roll must go close. The faster the ground gets too won't bother and this one has a mighty chance on the book.

Lightly enough raced 9yo who I've followed ever since he caught my eye a couple of seasons ago and he rewarded my faith by winning a couple of times including when bolting up by a whopping 25l on handicap debut...and I'm sure I even put him up then on @olbg. Has been very disappointing since but has finally slipped to a winnable mark as is now 3lb lower last win. Not one to go mad about but I like the fact Sean Quinlan has been booked as this horse has normally had an apprentice up in recent runs. Quinlan has been good to follow this month as has booted home 5 winners and has 6 seconds from his 21 rides this month alone. If the first time visor works he could be on an attractive mark and bar one other in the field is the only other distance winner in the field. Could bolt up if on a going day.

12yo who won over C&D on seasonal debut in November and had a good few of these behind that day and though comes here after some bang average efforts so do many in this poor event. Has slipped back to that winning mark and Peter Kavanagh who rides this old boy well is in good form at this track this season. His 5 winners from 32 rides here this season yield a +£24.50 lsp return and I've checked last year's event of this race and he did manage to finish third on a 100-1 shot. Is a horse I've followed ever since he was going really well once here before unseating when making his move and he duly obliged a couple of runs later. Yard does well with these old boys and have had 4 winners from 13 runners this calendar year with the likes of veterans Goodoldbill and Uptown Harry. Definitely has a squeak if on a going day and could run a huge race in a winnable race.

Pierre Bonnard beat A Boy Named Susie a couple of lengths in France on soft ground over nigh on this trip but Christmas Day beat that same rival a short head over 1f shorter and on that reckoning you'd think Ryan Moore has made the right choice. He may well of done but my fancy needed all of that 9f here at Leopardstown to get up and would of been 6l clear if asked to go another furlong. Getting 2lb off the favourite here he looks the bet to me and is much the value. In fact he looks a stonking price and is one of the EW bets of the day if fit to go on seasonal reappearance. Should be second fav at about 4-1 in my book so looks a mighty bet.

If Power Blue goes well earlier I'd fancy this one even more as was second behind that one last year in the Group 1 Phoenix. Found the 5f on firm ground too much of a speed test and should been at a better effect on turf stepping up in trip. Dam was a 9.5f Listed winner and a half sister out of dam Alluring was a 9f Group 2 winner so my fancy is certainly bred to stay. Should loads of class as a 2yo and though a Queen Mary winner could be better still as a 3yo stepping up in trip. Decent ground would be fine and obviously fitness is the issue but is the class act.

Has the penalty and has to give weight away but so did last year's winner and I liked this horse last year with the view he'd make a better 3yo. Owner had Arizona Blaze finish third in this last year but that one didn't stay and is now a Group 1 winning sprinter where I think this one wants a stiffer test. Finished last season beating subsequent Group 1 Cheveley Park Fillies winner True Love and rates a nice EW bet here. Won on debut here on soft ground but prefers better ground so the more it dries the better and obviously can go well fresh. EW player at least here for me.

Haven't have a saver on this one as though has a bit to find with favourite through Far From Dandy is from a yard finally getting into gear. I've been following Johnny Murtagh closely and the last few days he's had two winners and three seconds and finally hitting the mark. His runners have tended to need a run and this one had a poor draw but interestingly enough is their only runner on this valuable card today. Type to hack up or blow out but on form isn't far behind my main fancy.

Each way nap of the day. Finished a staying on third in the Irish Lincolnshire on seasonal debut and some of that races form is working out well with the likes of Far From Dandy & Perry Mason giving it some depth. On a line through Far From Dandy had the besting of Fixation so has to be tte bet here as has fitness inside too. Rattled off a hatrick ladt backend as is better drawn than Fixation too so looks the solid one even though that one is a threat. Must go close.

Before all the changes were made to the Grand National and before it turned into finding an Irish Grade 1 type, this fella would of fitted the bill perfectly. Aintree Chase record reads 11125 and slips in here off a handy weight. Won the Peter Marsh earlier in the season with Johnnywho behind and caught my eye big time in the Ultima. Was badly hampered by a faller & out the back of the telly, but showed Red Rum-esque agility to skip that fallen horse before staying on really well. Should stay and I backed him at 80-1 after the Ultima which has thrown up two of the last four winners and I'm so glad he got in. By that man Saint Des Saints who throws up plenty of Aintree winners and if he does stay and get a clear round has a cracking EW chance. Goodish ground perfect too and owner Dicky Johnson was keen to get in and have a crack at this. Could be the best of the British.

Have to back this one who looks a National type of the modern ilk as has been campaigned at the top level and though was disappointing in the Coral Cup was making his seasonal reappearance when the de Bromhead yard were out of form. His stablemate Gorgeous Tom though did run well in that Coral Cup in fourth place but Daragh O'Keefe who was onboard then elects to ride Monty's Star. A good novice who was second to Fact To File in a Brown Advisory and then returned to Cheltenham a year later to be fourth in a Gold Cup shows he has some class. Has run in two of the top Irish Grade 1's this season and though has ground to make up on the likes of Grangeclere West and I Am Maximus gets a decent chunk of weight off both of them now we're in a handicap. Trainer knows how to win this race and I've liked this one's profile for a while and though stamina is an unknown over this trip he has to run well. On a fair mark and screams of a Grand National plot job.

Had a fine novice campaign highlighted with a win here at this meeting in the Grade 1 Mersey and shaped as if a step up in trip was needed as needed all of the home straight to get up. That form has worked out really well and then went on Punchestown to be second to Albert Bartlett winner Jasmin de Vaux with a subsequent Grade 1 winner Fleur In The Park in third. Has disappointed since behind Impose Toi and Home By The Lee but may of found Ascot & Cheltenham too stiff and should relish a return to this flatter track. Strong Leader would be a strong fancy on course form but yard form is a worry and if a first time tongue tie hopefully aids this one's chances he looks a good thing to me.

Won this last year off a 100 day break and follows a similar path this season and though disappointing so far has been laid out for his hatrick bid in this race. Yard have won it three times in the last decade so target this race and have hit a rich vein of form as last three horses sent out of the yard have won. Only a 1lb higher than last year where he beat my outside poke in the National itself Imperial Saint and that looks fair form as that one came out and won the Peter Marsh off a mark of 141 so arguably Cruz Control could still be on a fair mark. Race looks deeper than last year but given course form, yard's current form, their record in this and the fact the ground should be perfect Cruz Control looks the EW play of the day. By that sire Saint Des Saints again who gets plenty of Aintree winners and hopefully he bags another one today.

3/4 in fledgling career but only defeat was in the Grade 1 Challow behind No Drama This End and worth another crack at the highest level and especially as this race doesn't look the deepest. Yard just clicking into gear again and last three horses sent out recently have all won. Beat the reopposing Kosac D'Oudairies last time at Kelso easily by a long looking 6.5 lengths and as thst one got to within 7 lengths to Mydaddypaddy earlier in the season the form reads well. Won't mind if the ground dries out any more as has won with firm in the description but also handles good to soft so won't mind conditions if they water whereas I fear plenty here would like ground much softer. Ballyfad has to be respected for yard who've won four of the last ten renewals but I like this horse and he looks a corking EW punt for shrewd yard.
