      but I'm not going to.
      Lucky place........
      Young pretender and big improver but way below Teahupoo standard. Certainly got place prospects though as the rest behind Big T are desperate.

      Mystical Power the only one for me who could potentially be a little fly in the ointment.......but that would be clutching.

          May turn out to be, but at least he’s unexposed at the trip and has a bit of the unknown
          The race needs those types, all the exposed ones like Crambo seem to be all much of a muchness

                  There are a few places I know that sort of attitude could land you in plenty of trouble....

                  • Langer Dan is probably the value at 20-1 NRNB.
                    Ignore all his other runs.
                    But his form in Spring and on a line through Impaire et Passe he looks the closest to the Fav and could improve further for the stayers course and distance and time of year of course.

                        Exchange play, surely massive on that?

                          So langer dan can improve but lucky place is crambo 2.0?
                          Just because it's the 2nd season in a row I've identified the uk improver, doesn't mean we will have the same result.
                          I'm more confident this year.
                          Lucky place has a touch of class, and a top trainer.
                          and posh boy.
                          Next year I'll not be looking for an improver........

                          • Respect all opinions but if ye not with the fav then is it just not a case of trying to keep the thread alive with ifs buts and maybe’s? I watched last years race tonight and the fav made at least 4 errors and still won going away,am sorry but in the words of Willie himself GET STUCK IN!!

                              No.
                              it's about looking at him and knowing he is easily beatable.
                              4 errors?
                              and you dont think you shoukd take that on?
                              I'm from the days of proper stayer hurdlers. And we going to get another this year.
                              ​​year.

                              • Ye 4 errors,what would he have won by with 2 errors or even no errors? And again I’m old enough to remember backing Baracouda in this,am I old enough?
