Anybody's race . Take your pick!!!
If you fancy Theatre Guide don't be put off by the figure . His first run this season was as good as anything he has done previously and he could improve on that. He likes the course and the stable seems to be in good form .

Blaklion is a cracking little chap but , at the weights , is up against it here .

The top one has a good claimer on but no allowance is made for his claim. That reminds me that Frodon is , effectively , carrying a 3lb penalty in The Ascot Chase . His trainer is brilliant at training but a noggin when it comes to the weights .

Long handicap weights

Early doors it looks like Blaklion , Total Recall and The Last Samuri are there to be taken on . They have been done no favours .
O'Larey must be fuming as Smith looks to have given Road To Riches every chance at the weights but little chance of getting a run ; a veritable Eumenide !
Bellshill did a fine job first time back and , at the weights , has a fine chance .
It might not mean much but Betbright appear to be ducking Ricci's Childrens List .

Very interesting . Top Notch could be anything and Cue Card has surprised before .  Gary pulled the bottom chap out of two races last Saturday , he needed to run against Native River to qualify for the National. I can't see him cutting much ice here .
A great race to watch but Coney Island looks too short .

Altior's class might get him through but Saint Calvados looks dangerous .

The top chap can motor but will his jumping stand up ?
Native River is there to be taken on .

You can crab every one in some way or another . Our Duke is there to be taken on I feel . A good race to watch .
