Up in trip to the distance he was most impressive last season in the Ballymore. Second fav is a doubtful stayer having skipped Sandown because of the testing ground. Favoured by the stable jockey. Best horse in the race on ratings. Odds on fav.
As I said......he won't get beat
2nd fav is a doubtful stayer? Did I just read that?

Ah, some reasoning!!
Not sure I agree re the staying 2m5 part, but still maybe some helpful stuff possibly

Especially when he's raced at 2m5 three times and won all three times, including the Ballymore (Beating the winner of the Arkle last year) just like Ballyburn
Am I losing my mind to think that Ile Atlantique beats Majborough this weekend? I think he's a different horse over fences and looks to have improved significantly. You can pick some holes in Majborough's form and I'd rather side with IA at 7/2 with Denise currently than Maj

Possible….not the losing mind bit
But I think I would be more confident about IA if ground came up soft?
Majborough looks a good one to me.

I am the same as you.
The 8s for the Arkle looks tempting. No 5 year old winning the Arkle when gone off level weights and Fakir D'oudairies is the only 5 year old in the last 10 years to improve its RPR in the Arkle and he still lost. Could this be because they were getting weight all year and then don't run as well or is this because no 5 year old was Sir Gino good.
If a 5 year old is going to break the stat, its Sir gino.
Majborough getting weight off Ile atlantique this weekend means he has to win it for me.
Ile atlantique wins or gets within a few lengths then I'd be having him at the fez to beat Majborough
Is he an intended runner? Gordon said straight to Cheltenham I thought, after the Christmas run.
I'm desperate for an each way bet in that but can't work out what runs.
Better Days Ahead?
I took Better Days Ahead last week when they said Impaire Passe was going to the Scilly Ilse at 10's thinking if he ran surely he gets placed now it's looking a little more difficult.

I very nearly did the same but bottled it as wasn't sure if Better Days Ahead was an intended runner either.
Gordon seems to be dodging the DRF with most he fancies for Cheltenham a little... So be interesting to see what he does(n't) declare.
