Topped up on One for the Team 25/1 & Canelo 33/1 with bet365, both ran just ok yesterday at Doncaster on that awful ground and should be dropped a pound or so ahead of this race.

Wouldn't be interested in him over the intermediate trip again myself. He is very stroutly bred and really looks in need of stepping up in trip to me.

With all the talk today about latest handicap marks, on an unrelated topic I notice that The Conditional isn't entered for the rearranged Cotswold Chase at Sandown on Saturday.
Does this indicate they are going lukewarm about the Gold Cup idea for him, or just waiting for the Denman Chase? Has anyone heard anything concrete either way, as I still fancy him for this if lining up here.

Perhaps they think it's specifically the track that'd suit?

Maybe I'm missing something but why is Run Wild Fred widely assumed to be going for the NH Chase rather than here? It would seem that Escaria Ten is pretty likely to go there so would he not prefer to split two such (apparently) well handicapped horses?

Havent got anything this year as of yet.

This is where a combination of the exchanges and nrnb comes in useful. Get the likely shorteners onside, keep the ones you want, lay the others for a profit, and go back in with 5,6, or even 7 places. The handicaps can be profitable three times over.Luck is a dividend of sweat. The more I sweat, the luckier I get.
