really? you would risk your life on LR and BW? wow

Big Bucks looks very hard to beat so he would be one leg and it would have to be Sizing Europe mainly because it is likely to be a single figure field

but I wouldn't be making any holiday plans if my life really was on the line

Monksland & Bog Warrior Excited

Think Hurricane has less opposition than Big Bucks.... Oscar could trouble him, can't see anything troubling Hurricane

So mine would be
Hurricane & Sizing

Ok Shando.

If I had to do a more speculative bet for my life I would do the following:

1) Bog Warrior for the Arkle - Currently avaiable at 17.5 on Betfair:
He has the best 2m form in Ireland and will get the best ground on Tuesday. Everyone is obsessed with our Top English Horses, and quite rightly so, but Gigginstown are a well funded outfit, just look at his novice chases this year, his investment is bearing top class fruit, and Bog Warrior is one of them.
I can see him pushing on three out, catch me if you can senario. I think he will stay on all the way to line line.

My Antepost Nap of the season. 17/1 is very generous indeed!


Oh, and Non runner no bet! I shall put in a replacement if necessary!

2) Four Commanders for the 4m novice chase 34/1 on Betfair
Another Gigginstown horse. He has been running against the top novices over inadequate trips all season. The step upto to 4m will bring out the best of him. This one will be staying on up the hill....  please please please to save my bacon!!

Thats a big double!!

Hurricane Fly and Big Bucks. With the stakes being so high, I would go NRNB given the Fly's unfortunate record of no shows at the Festival Wink

My Sub is a very interesting horse... Non runner no bet again!!

A McManus Plot!!!!!!

It's Shot from the Hip for the Centenary Chase 2m5f for novices. He has only run to an RPR of 128 so far and was a top rated hurdler, he is only 10/1 for the JP Moriaty!!
He doesnt like soft ground and Im expecting a 'cosy' run into to 4th or 5th. He will get allocated an English rating of 136-139 and absolutely hose up for McManus at the Festival!!!!

Im going to be watching him like a hawk on Sunday!!

HF and SE. I expect some of the bookies will pay out on the singles beforehand!
