I like velvet maker for the grand anual. I expect more battle hardened sorts to be more backed by punters, but if he was more experienced he wouldn't be 12/1.
Not been through the whole thread again but decent call from the bloob on Romain De Senam.One or two shouts for the County tomorrow but my own pick Montbazon has sneaked in at the bottom off 2lbs lower than when 3rd in this 2 years ago, evidence of Betfair Hurdle is that he's retained all his ability, this race seems to get stronger each year and there will be plenty more fashionable, progressive types but I expect a big run from Montbazon.
