If we get a race like the King George, we could be in for a cracker. HC is my each-way pick at a price. But for win purposes, Gaelic Warrior could take home the top prize. He's probably the best horse, in my view, in the race. If you watch his races back, there have been instances where he's tended to be a bit keen. This step up in trip, with a frenetic, strong gallop up front, should suit him and see him settle better. Both he and Haiti, I can see, will be supported strongly on the day. A repeat of his Irish Gold Cup second ladt month would see him go very very close in this. 221 are his course form in Grade 1's around here.

I've envisaged different results every day in the lead-up to this race. But I finally narrowed it down to two. For each-way purposes I'm going with Haiti Couleurs. This Rebecca Menzies horse has won 6 of his 7 starts as a chaser and looks to be improving. I can see him leading and could have a few of these out of their comfort zone.

I'm on Doctor Steinberg ante-post. Although impressive over DRF weekend, if he races as keenly here he'll be found out. I've had a saver on Spinningayarn. This Gordon Elliott runner looked in need of a seasonal return when third. But in his two subsequent races he won in the manner of a horse that's possibly not reached his ceiling. He certainly looked as though stepping up in trip would bring further improvement. 12/1 odds look extremely big as of Wednesday. With four places up for grabs, I do not envisage him out of the frame. If he's in the first four at the top of the hill, I do not see anything out staying him.

Dinoblue doesn't fall; she should win. Unlike recent years, this is a deeper contest than normal. If there were an upset, it could well be PANIC ATTACK. She looks nailed on for a place at the very least. She's 3/3 this season. This mare still looks to be improving at the age of 10. She won the Paddy Power Gold Cup here in December, which was followed by wins at Newbury in the Alder Denman and the Coral Gold Cup Chase. Trip and ground boxes are ticked, and the Skelton yard have enjoyed success here this week already. I can see Dino drifting and Attack being well supported when posting some 48 hours early.

Murcia represents last year's winning connections, and outside the Gold Cup I can see her being the best-supported horse on the day. Posting up early, as I cannot see 7/1 lasting. She seems to come alive around this time of year. She ran well enough in last year's Fred Winter. The way she's been ridden, to my mind, was with Cheltenham in mind. Since the Fred Winter she's yet to finish outside the first four places. To my mind, the fourth over DRF weekend was a fair effort, as it came to light post-race that she hated the ground. Interesting connections come here with her after the exploits of Kargese, this year's Arkle winner. Mullins has won 3 of the last 4 renewals. She'll have her ground come Friday with six places up for grabs. I cannot see her missing the frame.

Narciso's absence has given this a wide-open look. Willie Mullins has a fabulous record in this; that's factored into some of the prices. I'm going away from the Irish with the British-trained MINELLA STUDY . She's three from three with her two trainers. After winning on debut for John Nallen, she's 2/2 with Adam Nicol. She won her first start for him at Wetherby, but it was her second start here on the New Course in January that made me sit up and take note. Her times were incredibly impressive at each stage of that race, and the form has been franked on multiple occasions. She's been kept fresh for this ??" her aim all season. Although off the track since, having had racecourse gallops, Adam seems bullish about her chances. Four places up for grabs and 8/1 in a place ??" she's another I can see shortening when posting some 48 hours prior.

Max did extremely well in Australia considering he was coming from the back of the grid following a crash in practice. If they've tweaked the car since last weekend, he might cause a big surprise. At 7/1 it looks big for what I feel is the best driver in the pit lane.

The Nuke had taken a while to get going in this year's Premier League, but he won the UK Open last weekend and beat The Iceman in Night 5 in the semi-finals with an average of 111 for his three darts. If he gets off to a fast start, I can see him blowing the Welshman away.

There's no way the Lewis bitch from Oxford will go off anywhere near odds of 8/1. She has early pace with slow starters either side of her she could lead up even. If there's trouble she'll find it of late. But this step up to 500m might aid her cause as she's got early pace but looks as though she'll stay this trip if not further.

Mighty Mike meets The Ferret. Jonny is in the form of his life, both in this format and on the wider circuit. He tops the standings coming into Night Six: 8 wins and 4 losses. That's without breaking a 100-dart average. I feel the momentum is with The Ferret. He can win a match that could be close.

This looks like the match of the night, and it could go either way. Both players are in form with good three-dart averages. This could well go to a deciding leg. Over 9 legs is the way to play this market, and just under even money.

The bitch Rapido Rosin looks generously priced. She's 2/3 around here and boasts good early pace. I fully expect her to lead up. She stretches out as she uses her track knowledge. She has a best time of 29.40 set on 26th February. I think if she leads (she should) she wins. No. 5 is slow away. I can envisage the three inside runners hampering each other in the run to the first bend. Envisaged around evens at 7/4, she looks extremely overpriced.

Two players at the bottom of the table in this format, and Bunting has least won a match unlike Rocky. It's not that he's playing badly. His three-dart average is good. He reached the semi-finals at Minehead. I think he can break his duck against Bunting in what could be a scrappy affair.

This race I envisaged Gallic Warrior and not Fact to File in the line-up. If Fact repeats Irish Gold Cup form, its a question of how far he wins by. At the odds, if there were an upset it could be IMPAIRE ET PASSE. He's a dual Grade 1 winner. In his first six chase starts he won four of them and finished third once. The only blemish was being brought down at Punchestown. He will definitely stay. A small field should ensure a smoother run than Punchestown. He won the Red Mills at Gowran Park last month and should be cherry ripe for this. Several in here have no chance, so I'm surprised this one is such a big price.

Excellent season last year including Grade 1 st Aintree then 1/2 length second in The Chanor another Grade 1 on next start (received a bump didn't hejp). Decent third caught flat footed on seasonal return inn December Long Walk against two rivals that had had 2 runs ( Strong Leader and Impose Toi). Guaranteed stay this far yet be out the first two in all career starts. Only negative not run here before but otherwise he ticks all boxes comes here with a solid chance. It would come as no surprise to me if he was well supported on the day at around 9/1 bigger in places and 4 places up for grabs looks decent value for each way involment

Wodhoh has had 10 career starts over hurdles, winning 8 times and finishing runner-up twice. This includes two wins over course and distance, one of which was here last year in the Martin Pipe. A repeat of that effort and she wins by a mile, with no Lossiemouth her task is made easier. I have a feeling bookmakers may want to take her on with second favourite. I'm hoping she drifts to evens or odds-against. It's hers to lose.

Sixmilebridge has not got the credit he deserves. Done nothing wrong. Will lead this field. He's reluctantly passed over for JORDONS CROSS, who I feel is tailor-made for this. Will be staying on. Others cried enough. In seven career starts, barring an unfortunate fall here last December, yet finished out the first two in the other six starts. She's 3/4 since going chasing. Won the Timeform Novices' Handicap here over course and distance in January. That form has been franked numerous times and looks very strong. She looks a cracking each-way play. Dangers everywhere. Wingman principle: this mark looks lenient on his three chase starts this season. But at 7/1, bigger in the odd place, The way he stayed on to the line hete in January bodes well. Im expecting JORDONS CROSS to continue his upward trajectory.

Consensus of opinion is Fever will reverse form with Outlaw on Naas form. Both are short enough. One that interests me at a price is CARRIGMOORNASPRUCE (commentators' nightmare!). She's yet to finish outside the first three in all her nine career starts. Her last two runs against the boys would give her a major squeak now reverting to her own sex. On breeding, she'll stay further in time. She's been kept fresh for this since her last run in Graded company when second at Leopardstown on December 27th. It would be no surprise to me if the money came for her. At 10/1 we'll make a profit even if she's placed.
