Off the top of my head. The place part of an ew treble is about 30-1 (ish) . Better off doing that, for fear they actually won 😀 -

Just looking back at last year's race and horses that impressed me visually were.
Road to Respect. Travelled and jumped like a horse that was enjoying himself . Won by a wide margin .
Cause of Causes . Won like a horse well above the rest
Tiger roll.again Impressive
Penhil . Clearly loved the good ground and I liked the way he won going away at the end.
All will be on my short list as will Tully EastComment

I think I have done ok with the prices, I know a lot of them are shorties unlike most antipost backer here but I normally only back horses after a run or two. I have a few dogs but hopefully most will make the starting post and hopefully I will get a run for my money. I could see me getting two or three winners but touch wood a few more and in the same bet would be nice..
Plus I will be doing the Fatjockey Yankees each day for fun..
GL all with your selections and I am already looking forward 2019 book...Comment

The World Hurdle is a race I like, I've always had a reasonably strong opinion on it pre Christmas. And fortunately over the years it's a race I've been lucky enough to do quite well in. This year though I'm really struggling to form an opinion. Any opinion really, never mind a strong one. Interested to hear peoples theories on the race. And I'm glad I took the plunge and started posting. This is a good place to be. No animosity and many people I feel are worth listening too. So once again thankyou for letting me join this awesome little community.Comment

Hi Kev, maybe a stupid question but how many winners roughly do you need before you break even?Originally posted by Kevloaf View PostComment

Would depend on whether I can pick which ones win...Originally posted by Sirbetalot View Post
- I think 3 would be the minimum ....
