Johnny Soda ran poorly in The Madrid , the form of which looks awful now , but his Navan run last October looks pretty solid . He will be a big enough price for a small e/w speculation .
Hamaiyan has form with Christmas Day .

Many are talking about The Greenham as if it is a bad race . Stuff and nonsense !
Take a look at the far side of the field . Aqpan comes with a winning run only to blow up close to home . I did not see much racing today but from what I did catch it seemed that the near side had an advantage , That effort should put him right and a nice race should be his soon .
Another from the race is Needle Match . After a tardy start he finished fourth but not beaten far . His sire might have finished in the same position before beating Kingman at H Q .

It seems that some drivers experience difficulties finding a public toilet when they find themselves in unfamiliar territory . The problem is easily solved . Undo your seat belt and continue driving and before you know it you will find a s***house . I guarantee it .

I doubt that Zavateri will be 100% if Eve is serious about Newmarket .
Albert Einstein can find 7lb for his first run .

I found two very dubious lines with which to rate Needle Match . The two figures matched exactly . So if you think he looks too high feel free to do so but that is where he is staying .

At 2lb per length fitness is the key . Hawk Mountain looks like a capital candidate for a lay . He is short enough ,

Topham

Conflated -17 old form , on the Mildmay when splitting Jonbon and
Protektorat . Last March he ran a good race behind Jagwar . He was physically giving 11lb to the plot horse who is now rated 18lb higher . That day he ran off of 150 here he is down to 140 . With no fences to hinder him he has to be on your short list and a saver is a must whatever you back .

Oscars Brother +14+ looks unexposed .

The lays are becoming difficult but

Grangeclare West
Iroko
Haiti Couleurs
Panic Attack

The Bobbyjo form is easy to crab . Answer To Kayf holds it back and although Gerri Colombe beat our old friend Mage next time he was in receipt of 3lb . He won well but did not look to have a ton in hand .
However if one takes the view that the form is solid then Answer To Kayf appeals as an e/w prospect at a big price . So why lay the winner of that race here ? Because he has no value is the answer .
I'm sure that Iroko has improved this season but he has not been missed .
Haiti Couleurs does not look classy enough . Too close to I Am Maximus at the weights . A great jumper but they can all jump these fences .
Panic Attack is no value .
Good luck .


EDIT : Just to clarify ; you lay all four to lose the same amount .

Breaking Dawn , Salacious , Son Of Beauty and Flanker Jet have had a recent run .

Causeway is poor value .

Alparslan K Burke : overwhelmed at Newmarket he can do better .
Avicenna R Varian : could improve an awful lot .
Bay Of Brilliance R Beckett : staying type .
Black Caviar Gold  Paddy Twomey : is in The Guineas so , presumably , is better than G3 .
Calendar Girl. Owen Burrows : thoroughly genuine filly .
Christmas Day. Aidan O'Brien : staying type .
