My profuse apologies, everyone. Going for the Martin Pipe - let's hope he gets in!
Langer Dan was the first winner of the imperial cup to line up at Cheltenham for a race since flying angel in 2016, both finishing 2nd at Cheltenham.
Surprise package won pretty comfortably yesterday, you have a real chance if he's came out of the race well.
Good luck!

But I think one angle that may be an edge for this years festival is the older UK horses. 9 and 10 year olds.
It's public knowledge that the handicapper is quicker and more lenient with older handicappers this season and if trainers have latched onto this then there may be some well plotted horses that could run well at big prices.
One or two members have mentioned these types already and will have struggled to convince many including myself, but Ben Linfoot's column the other day was interesting, and an each way handicap yankee with these types may be a decent edge at big prices.
The horses that would fit the bill, and I would prefer the handicaps that you don't need to be that young in myself, where we know the older horses can pop up from time to time and win or place.
Global Citizen 50-1 Grand Annual
Spiritofthegames 33-1 Plate
Dame de Compagnie 25-1 pertemps
Honest Vic 25-1 pertemps
Gumball 25-1 Grand Annual
All these above were mentioned by Ben, but there are several in the Kim Muir, so the conformations tomorrow will thin them out a bit.
Elegant Escape, Janika etc.
There will also be others that people on here may like or know of targets etc.
This is relatively new thing and horses like this would normally have had to run several times to get dropped 10lb's plus, but this season they've been dropped in 2 or three races, and sets them up perfectly for the spring festivals, especially horses with back class that could easily have been hiding a bit.
