Dont know if this has been posted already but on ATR whilst interviewing Chocolate T ,Matt Chapman said Alan King told him at the grand national meal that VENDOR WAS A STONE WELL IN (FRED WINTER)Choc replied along the lines of thats no for me to say and that they are trying to keep on top of him till the day giving the impression the horse is bubbling ready

was told a few weeks ago that some old boy who has horses with king had £100 e.w vendor,he is normally a tenner max man.see its less than 5s on here,nevermind these "good things" in handicaps have a habit of coming unstuck.

Vendor may well be a bloody good horse but it will end up beaten by something with form figures of 591 that won a 2k race at Fontwell or somewhere and that carries a featherweight.
Clarion Call at 33/1 will do for me.

Quoted on his website, Webber said: "Lemon Drop Red winning at Southwell was highly satisfactory. He not onlyneeded the run, after being restricted to cantering by the cold weather in his lead up to the race, but he was also dropped 2lb for winning! This should leave him on a lovely mark for the Fred Winter at Cheltenham."
A general 20-1 chance for the festival handicap, Lemon Drop Red showed a decent level of form on the Flat for previous trainer Ed Dunlop and was getting off the mark at the third time of asking over hurdles at Southwell.
On his debut for Webber, Lemon Drop Red finished second to Triumph Hurdle-bound Ranjaan at Kempton before finishing fourth as the odds-on favourite at Musselburgh in January. On his latest run he recorded a short-head verdict over Little Fritz.
Just had the 3 runs to get a mark and lost first 2 (good stats) and looks a decent bet at 25s EW

Paul Nicholls - Hinterland will probably run. Ruby told me he overdid the waiting tactics last time saying it wasn’t his best ride. He is still on the same mark. He’ll have a big weight but is built to carry it. He is not as well handicapped as when Sanctuaire won it but good enough to win off his mark. Ulck Du Lin def runs didn't want to ruin his mark.
David Pipe - Mentions Kazlian for the Fred Winter needs to brush up jumping. 130 is ok in his opinion but won 2 poor races. Hopeful.
Kevin O’Ryan - Vendor of Alan King’s for the Fred Winter but that’s no news anymore.
Willie Mullins - Ut De Sivola Not much experience. (also entered in Triumph)

Does anyone know if Bat Masterson is running in this, I see he is entered for the weekend which isn't a good sign to me. I like his form and his rating is ok. I took 20/1 NRNB but i'd like to see him run.

2011 - 109 (on ratings alone by far the weakest) 2010 - 122 2009 - 121 2008 - 122 2007 - 119 2006 - 117 2005 - 112
122 would seem a fair estimate based on previous runnings.
Though there were 10 under that mark last year.
