teaforthree has been well supported antepost but the one i really like, given the withdrawel of last years victor Le Beau Bai is last years PU beaten favourite VIKING BLOND. trainer and jockey been very bullish in the press about his chances this time around, with Son Sam stating they now know how to ride him and hes coming of age and raring to go for this race which again has been the long term target. could not fault in either prep run, one chase one hurdles and with 2 course wins and acting on the ground must hold a big chance

VIKING BLOND 7/1 general

    Got a bit of a result with it getting postponed last week as the Real McCoy now gets the leg up on my Ante Post bet Teaforthree. He knows the horse inside out, but was engaged in Ireland on the original date. He took to this course great last year with McCoy, and his 1st two runs this year were just schooling missions for this. Not gonna pick up the points I wanted for my Tote Ten To Follow now, but hey ho, least I'm on at his opening price for the race.

    yeah you got a much fancier price than the stingey 3/1 available as we speak and you should get a very good run, the stat of hennesey horses not going well here could also maybe be eclipsed given the postponement of 2 weeks, ive still got it in back of my mind that he'll flop, then go under radar for the big one at aintree ala Mon Mome and romp home there!!! not that i envisage any 100/1 being available this time around

    Already had done two in race and was going to do a saver on Monbeg but didnt and after five fences I was glad I didnt LOL. If he could jump he would be a very good horse.

    true 5 in youd have crumpled up your docket but 5 out you were standing at the counter waiting to be paid a superb ride

    Gutted, bad day all round. Watched race from DTD in Notts. It touched 1.3 in running. Nope did it on the nose, so zilch return. To finish day off nicely, bust out of poker @ 2.08am, 12 mins before end of day one. Pushed my 75k stack (13 BB) AQ into Queens and didn't hit. Finished 110 ish out of 700 ish runners, top 80 paid. Hey ho!!!
