Think UDS is the most riskiest proposition, gut feeling is he wont turn up - I might be wrong but if you take the price of SDG only 7/4 .... that's a big hint.

There is a softer race at Punchestown soon after Ascot; lay UDS - you win if UDS stays at home; you win again if UDS fluffs his lines.

VIBRATO VALTAT 10/1???? I think that is very generous indeed!

How likely do you think it is that UDS runs? Interestingly paddy power have gone 8/15 on uds - makes the 10/11 with bet365 look very appealing

10/11 for a 1/3 shot tells me he isn't running.

Dont say that Duffy.Planning to go and see him with my camera,add him to my collection.
My fav horse in training,just love exciting front runners,and he's certainly one of them.

8/15 for an 8/15 shot tell me he IS running

I guess he won't be up against the likes of Sire De Grugy or Vibrato Valtat if he stays in Ireland for next weeks race. SDG loves the soft and looks back close to his best.

After the fall last time, the easier option makes sense, and wait till March for the big showdown with SDG, Scare, Bullets, Tiara etc etc...

7/4 was available  surely?

he's running....great stuff, can't wait to see him.
We should have a pretty definite idea of the QM after this race.........as long as UDS jumps round!!

Winning round Ascot does not necessarily reduce the chance of him falling at a downhill fence at Cheltenham.

yeh,think we all know that.
Im talking in relation to him beating (or not) SDG ,cos that gives us a straight guideline between the Irish and the Brits.

Backed Un De Sceaux.Whatever other bets I have if he wins I win if he loses I lose.

I have had a flutter on Simply Ned at 28/1. The best interpretation of his last run would leave him a few pounds to find on Sire De Grugy and Un De Sceaux but it would also be his best form as yet.

Go further back to his form with Uxizandre, Dodging Bullets and Module and you could make out a reasonable case for him. Stretching it I know but I care not for odds on shots.

Go back to his form in the Doom bar @ Aintree 2014 if Harding had any balls he should've beaten balder succes

Hope you enjoyed your day Budd.

Was great thanks Stevo.

Got some nice photos and one jumping in front of the stands came out well.
Tried to do the same fence... the last and in the excitement of watching the race mistimed it and got SDG instead...UDS was away on the run in!!

Yep,great day.
