    Going to be tough beating Sir Gino. Ran a quicker time than Lossiemouth on Saturday carrying 5lbs more !

    If there is one to possibly take out of the above Spring Juvenile Hurdle and back for the Fez pre DRF it may be Kargese. She's Willies only Filly entered on Saturday and the first 3 home in the Triumph last year were all Fillies and all trained by Willie.

      Will read through this over the next 24/48 hours and post up. Have 2 selections virtually locked in but the latter two wide open.

        Any chance of getting this up tonight as the horses are likely to run tomorrow and for those without certain accounts will require a betting shop trip first thing?

            January Yankee:
            - Storm Heart at 7/1 (Triumph)
            - Fact To File at 4/1 (Browns)
            - I Will Be Baie at 25/1 (Albert Bartlett)
            - Ballyburn at 4/1 (Ballymore)

            Odds - 5199/1
            Bookmaker - Coral

            For what it’s worth, I’d have Predators Gold myself as the Albert Bartlett horse if and when he wins the 2m 6f race tomorrow but I Will Be Baie was more popular in the thread so deserved to get the nod.

                  Never did this one yet and I will be Baie now 50/1. Didn't see him at the DRF so can only assume he was disappointing. Still worth a nibble?

                    ….only a few weeks on but I suppose there has to be doubts over all the selections. Storm Heart was beaten by Kargese and there’s lots of debate over the target for both Ballyburn and F2F. Like all these things, it’s up to the individual.

                      That was Monkfish & Ebaziyan.

                      Ebaziyan the only one to go the the festival and win after only winning a maiden on second attempt (40-1).

                      I think one or two others got beat on the way in graded races - Penhill, Champagne Fever,

                      Rest were unbeaten over hurdles.

                      I think, not spent all day on this.
                      Found it, Monkfish also.
