Bit of a favourite as he did me a nice couple of favours last season, but he was relatively big prices to win those races.
Has been supported from 9/4-odds on, but is now drifting.
If he comes close to reproducing last year - has been beaten on the Flat since - then he should likely make all, and bolt up. I just wonder that he looks a bit too obvious. The sort that have a happy knack of getting turned over. At 10, it isn't a given that he will be able to maintain that level, and the stable form hasn't been great. What you would think was their second best horse - Encanto Bruno - ran a shocker last time.

Willie Mullins saves the bookmakers. Let's hope he doesn't get the double up by getting the bumper horse beat.
Perhaps An Mhi softened up Seddon, but he never looked to be travelling that well, and that certainly wasn't anything like a reproduction of last year. I had him down as a good ground horse in his early days, but his record suggests he shouldn't have had an issue with today's ground. It might be tough season ahead, and they may now be regretting not going straight to America. |

May just have been the difference Townend made on the winner

Townend is a very good jockey, but it is difficult to tell with those pick up the pieces rides. It might just have fell for him.
Lisa O'Neill did say in the round up that O'Connell had said that the ground was too soft for Seddon. So maybe my original thoughts were correct. At least I didn't stop the bumper winner. Probably a poor race, but nice staying pedigree, and the first horse the stable has sent out by Affinisea. |
