I think since the modifications the trends have been broken regularly ie French Bred over 11stone winners, but more than ever you need a strong stayer the 2 big price winners Mon Mome and Auroras Encore both had extreme distance form.
I would still point to 9-11 year old age range. 4 of my original 8 choices are already out and I agree to leave it till the day now, though Chance Du Roy with course form and Night In Milan good win last time are 2 that I have not backed but quite like. |

It's far from a lottery, unless there's been any 14 million-1 winners I've missed.

Oh and Steamship, tipped last year's winner at over 200-1 before last year's race.

As big field handicaps go its one of the easier puzzles. |

My theory is he is unable or unwilling to do the form for the race,. So you wont be getting my selection or any reasons why after many hours study.

STS its not about form its about profile and AE and MM had the right GN profile.
Good form stops you winning m8 just look at Triolo on to high a mark The hard work is done a year before maybe longer. |

Marychain did you back shackalacka before its comeback run?

Ran a decent race for a long way at Cheltenham I thought. Went off 8/1JF two years ago and was right up there 2 out. Reckon he'll be more suited now than he was then as an 8 year old. No evidence he's back to his best of course, but that's built into the price. Was rated 149 then and 140 now. Guess you could say 140 too high, but one I could see improving a lot.
