Duffle Coat certainly looks well in with my selection Senior Chief on their running last spring. I suppose the doubt is him getting in given only 34 runners this year and he’s 43 on the list, be close but we love 100-1 shouts.
Edit; L’Homme Presse out, so there’s one less.
I’ve been away so out of touch but have Aintree said anything about the intended ground ?
If it’s set to ride quick there might be a few more pull out and the likes of Duffel Coat could sneak in.
I suspect they’ll water though and ensure soft appears somewhere in the description…

….i’m only a few miles away and there’s been very little rain around here for a month or so, but what I do know is the turf at Aintree is lush. There used to be a footy pitch in the middle of the course where they go out into the country and that pitch always took a stud, even in the summer.
Looking at the forecast, I dare say they’ll water but I doubt it’ll ever be like a road.
I like the look of Monbeg Genius in The National (jumped well and won well last time out) and Bob Macintyre (gone home to Oban to stock up on burgers and chips) for The Masters. I'll pop a little each way double on those two. Has the GN / Masters expert Lobos woken from his post Cheltenham hibernation yet?
Before I start getting stuck into some ludicrous doubles, don't SkyBet usually offer more places for the Golf nearer the time?
As it stands it's only top 6. Pretty sure they've done top 8 & top 10 for E/W backers previously, maybe even more?
Masters is only a 91 runner field compared to 156 in other majors, and there are number of past winners who are virtual non runners so I'm not sure you'll get the 10 places you would in the Opens, some may well have specific markets with extra places at reduced odds.
I'm coming round to the idea Gavin has a serious squad for the National and narrowing down his main dart isn't easy but I'll go along with others who like Lucky Chief.

441/1 double
If anyone’s looking for a Masters golfer ew with 10 places available then Spieth, Zalatoris and Conners have great records for top 10 finishes and are available on 365 from 40/1 - 25/1. All 3 are in consistent form at the moment and Love Augusta

Cheers Istabraq I'm not too familiar with number of golfers in tournaments, it's not a sport I follow at all, I watch a little bit every now and then, but would have zero clue on the numbers you quote, but it makes sense.

I like him too, looks made for this and will be off bottom weight. I will have to cover him, though the cheek pieces sported LTO is not a positive for trends, for all he ran very well in them.

Don't forget Justin Rose at 100/1. Great form around Augusta and playing well at the moment.
