The big races are coming thick and fast; next up is the Hennessey. I've backed three already.
2pts Native River 16/1: has a good profile for this race being a progressive second season chaser with a nice racing weight. Ran a good race at the Cheltenham festival, followed by winning at the Aintree festival. I do worry that he doesn't always travel well in his races, and he won't be the last horse on the bridle but he does find for pressure.
2pts ew Theatre Guide 33/1: another Tizzard horse, he has been placed twice in the race before so was surprised to see him available at those odds. He ran some great races last season but as a result is rated higher this time around. He seems to have been around forever but is still a 9 year old. I like his chances at those prices.
2pts ew Blacklion 14/1: I expected him to contest the betfair chase this weekend so backed him for the Hennessey when I noticed he'd been scratched from that race. It was a bit of an impulsive bet and I expected his price to crash but 14/1 is still available.
Anyone got any strong opinions?

Henri parry Morgan had a nibble 20-1 ew this am has shortened 16-1, there,s alot to like about his form and 2nd to native river who looks too short
Now for me. 16-1 is still juicy enough, may be another one to keep an eye on.
