Weekend Racing

Not sure in the definitely red race but have done the treble

Not sure in the definitely red race but have done the treble

Odds dictate he's the most likely winner of those four, so I'm not being bold, but his 4 horse race is SO MUCH EASIER to win than Altior's.


ACDC is a handicapper getting nowhere near enough weight from Definitely Red to get near him.

One For Arthur is having his first run since a tendon injury (not a good one to come back from) and no way they'd want him to get too high in the weights with a win. They'll be looking for him to complete the race and come on for the run.

Leaving Double Shuffle who has a hugely 'inflated' rating on his one of 2nd in the King George. He went from being a 151 horse to 166 (now 162) which is still 11 lbs ahead of what he was. He's been to Aintree twice, pulled up in the Grand National and beaten 40 lengths by Might Bite 7th of 8 in April last year. Fell at the first in the Charlie Hall that Definitely Red won, so doesn't have race fitness on his side and is coming off the back of a fall.



(A lot of effort into tipping a 1/2 shot there haha)

My 'shortlist' for the Becher (with 7 places) is down to:

Regal Flow 16/1 - IF Heavy, ground a big, big plus - won last 3 on heavy and stamina no issue.
Highland Lodge 14/1 - C&D form really hard to knock out of the 7!
Crosshue Boy 15/2 - Unexposed? Has won on heavy over 2m and beat Dingo Dollar who I like
Ultragold 9/1 - Loves the place, won two Topham's.... will he get the trip now?
Don Poli 9/1 - Form 221112111511323 before moving to Elliott... P23 before his injury. For a horse that I think will win the national, he simply HAS to finish in the top 7 today, although you get the impression they wouldn't want to be winning the race!
Vieux Lion Rouge 9/1 - Previous C&D winner, similar to HL.


I'll back 4 probably.

It’s not much but Skybet are boosting Altior to 6/4 through sportinglife

Not much but I’m happy to take it

With Hills going 7 places in the becher, I'll be having a few darts in that race tomorrow. Federici, Highland Lodge, Dare to Endeavour, Blaklion,VLR and Ultragold all have good course form over the national fences so I'll try and narrow them down in the morning to 3 or 4 selections.

Shanahans Turn 3:15 6/1 - again, form over the fences and no Ultragold to beat.

Treacysenniscorthy 1:05 Navan 25/1ew (taken straight from the RP podcast).

Blaklion 9/2, 5 places
Federici 33/1, 6 places
Highland Lodge 14/1, 7 places
Dare to Enveadour 66/1, 6 places.

Again - really unoriginal today but I just see these 3 as rock solid - on the Altior, Lalor and Eldorado Allen treble - 20 pts.

[bobbyvalentino]

Sticking with the obvious here - Blaklion win

Second from me on Feredici with a strong ew shout

[Kevloaf]

This is the most bonkers start to a days racing I can ever remember!!!

You have to laugh

[ryanh97]

[OldPersian]

Between West Brom’s handball goal and that this weekend is turning into an all timer

[Folski]

Folski Tips for tomorrow ..... got christmas presents to buy. 👍😬

Only saw this now CMC I flagged the Hendo horse in the first at Sandown last night in the Supreme thread hope you saw it.

Unfortuantely EA (like many) has left down the treble EA Evens, I Can't Explain 15/8, Buildmeupbuttercup 2/1.

€100 on that would have been very nice.

I wanted to Cry ., My mate had the 40-1 winner and second !!!!!!!!!. I'm still crying.

[BigChaang]

In fact that's Twice in 5 days , i've backed the 8-13 favourite only to see a 40-1 shot win ,
It's just not fair !!!!!.

But tipped correctly
