Sausalito Sunrise got 4 options - the two you mention plus the Ultima Handicap Chase at the Festival and could potentially be supplemented for the Gold Cup - I saw somewhere that Hobbs said the Gold Cup was the least likely of those.
I'm pretty sure the Scottish National has been the long term target for Sausalito so tend to agree that the Kelso race is most likely. |

Cheers Rease, I wanted some unbiased opinions about Sausalito's next run.

Actually think he'll run in Chelt H'cap to keep weights as they are for Kruzhlinin
|
|
By:
Think he's too good to be keeping weights down for another. Midlands more likely for h'cap cos lot of field would be out of h'cap.

If SS is being prepped for Scottish National as suggested
Anyway like your pick. The way it picked up from its mistake ( not actually a mistake, sprawled on landing ) at Chepstow shows like you say that open to more. GL |

Cheers Roo, good luck for Cheltenham, can't come soon enough for me. Opening post should have been David Pipe, of course.

Actually have a better AP book than usual soul. Eternally optimistic as ever
Coming back to Big Race thread for Flat? |
|
By:
Thinking of using Big Race thread to see how I do with solely non-h'caps. Started to think it jinxed me last year, hence kept of the jumps one. Don't know if I'm suited to it, always very in or out. Its already too late for my Lincoln bets so prob just non-h'caps, can't seem to keep my own records so would be useful.

here ya go
Berea Boru is unlikely to turn out again quickly in Saturday's Betfred Eider at Newcastle. Peter Bowen's eight-year-old is all stamina, as he showed when winning at Ffos Las on Sunday. However, given the ultra-testing conditions he faced in Wales, Bowen would rather give him time to recover to prepare for the Midlands National at Uttoxeter next month. "I don't think he'll go, it will come too quick, especially given how bad the ground was," said Bowen. "The race I'd like to run him in is the Midlands National, he should get in now. To be honest I didn't think he'd get in at Newcastle, which was why we ran him on Sunday, but now it seems he would have done, which is a shame given there's such good prize money. "Believe it or not, he might be eight but I still think he's a bit backward and you won't see the best of him until he gets four miles. He's a novice on the up which I think is what you want in these stamina tests." P.Bowen |

Don Mcain to train the winner

Mad Brian 12\1 and of course Jonjoe O'Neil with Spookydooky 14\1 think they will go well.

Ground looks quick so will also back Standing Ovation e-w.

Red Devil Lads & Shotgun Paddy ew for me. Surprised the handicapper has left Shotgun on the same mark as last time. And RDR because Rebecca's horses are backing in form, horse has had a nice break and jockey booking Tom Obrien stands out a bit, 15 % S/R at the track, 16/1 and 28/1.ew
