      Wait for him to be pulled on the morning of the race and watch a stablemate with 10st 8lb gag up....

        Guys when does the qualifying mark come out. 138 last year, think it might go up to maybe 140. on quick look through the entries there are a lot of horses ranging from 140-163.

          He won't be going, otherwise he would be entered in the CH.

            Yeah I can't see Arctic Fire running. At the 2015 festival he was rated 154, he's gone up since then, so I'd imagine he'd be giving the field a hell of a lot of weight, trends/stats give him no chance, the last 11 winners have all been rated between 130-140. Though same connections did win it in 2015 with Wicklow Brave.

            Willie has 7 entries in total for the race, so will be interesting to see who we are left with in a couple of weeks time.

            Him and Paul Nicholls seem to have a very good record in the race since the turn of the century, winning 7 of the last 16 (43.75%) renewals.

            Edit: Renneti interests me, but currently looks to have a too high a rating based purely on the trends/stats for it.

              Some other interesting entries include, Joey Sasa, no rating in the Post, and also High bridge and Ivanovic gorbachov.

              I'm in on North Hill Harvey who has a rating of 149, so will be carrying

                Its a big trend that nothing over 139 wins.

                  Indeed, it's a trend I'm inclined to keep on the right side of too, which is why, despite currently liking Renneti, he may well not be the answer to this race for me come race day.

                    Will need to wait for the Irish horses to be given marks before making any decisions on this, but as some have mentioned the last 11 winners have been rated in the 130s so that should help rule some out for now for win purposes. I know a few fancied North Hill Harvey but he'd be a massive trends buster to win off 149 and there's a few of the Irish who are likely to be around that mark based on their Irish marks - Ivanovich Gorbatov and Renetti. I'm not saying it's impossible for anything in the 140s to win, but it'd be a massive jump for something in the high 140s to do so.

                      Based on the stats of the last 17/18 runners on ratings that would leave a shortlist of:

                          Based on the trends of last 11 yrs we can bring that list down to:

                          William H Bonney (But might not get in off 134)
                          De Name Escapes Me ( Same as above rated 134)
                          Wait For Me ( OR 135)
                          Apasianada ( OR 134)
                          Vosne Romanee (139)
                          Chesterfield (131)

                          Hargam not included for stats as OR is 140 but still has a shot

                            and fact some might not get in due to low marks the standout horse is VOSNE ROMANEE (also a 6yr old which is good for stats) currently 25/1(NRNB)
