The horse you picked for your avatar is EXACTLY why you shouldn't give up
...very good point, Kev. I clearly recall Skelton was about to declare Mohaayed a n/r on account of the going. Fortunately the horse didn’t know that and Bridget did the business.
Couldn't resist a little each way tickle on BIG RIVER this morning at 20-1 with Paddy Power - who go each way 1 to 6 and money back up to a tenner if second, third or fourth.
I backed this horse for the Ultima last year (run on soft) and he finished like a train to snatch fourth place - just over 6 length behind the winner Beware The Bear.
He's rated just 1lb higher now and will absolutely love this soft ground.
Big River went on to finish a creditable fifth in the Scottish National on good ground which wouldn't have played to his strengths. This season he was brought down at the 14th in the Scottish Borders National - when still going easily - and then warmed up for this with a win over just short of three miles off 11 stone 12 lbs at his favourite track Kelso.
This has obviously been the target and he must have a great chance of making the first six - he's set to carry 10st 8lbs which is just perfect.
Echo, echo, echo
I agree
Somebody highlighted WH have a special at 25/1 for Big River and The Conditional to place, which I think is a super bet.
I have had no joy with this race over the years. The most gutting attempt was when I included Golden Chieften in a placepot and not a penny on as a single
I've decided to average out the winning age, weight and rating over the past 12 years and Cobra De Mai fits the mould almost exactly

Thats how im picking the winner this year
A lot of stable confidence with all the aids back in & jockey upgrade having got his rating down again BUT my main worry is ground with him. I’ve already had a nice ew bet do really hoping today is the day! Fingers crossed buddy
