OK just a quick note on tomorrow. Firstly Magen's Star has diverted to the Supreme where she is not without a chance but I still struggle to see past Cue Card in that. Given she is out of the race L'accordioniste is prob the most reasonable e/w alternative for people not looking to take the odds-on on Quevega.
IN the first handicap of the day it's not a very original choice but I love the look of Sunnyhillboy. Decent racing weight, good course form including a 2nd at the festival last year and not an overly tough season to date. The trip is the only unknown but he looks like he should stay the full 3m so not overly concerned on that front. Great Endevour and Blazing Bailey look to have too much weight. Bensalem was let down by his jumping last year and hasn't jumped a fence in public since in an attempt to protect his handicap mark, I'm not too interested at that price given those doubts. Of the rest King Fontaine could run well at a big price.
In the big one the absence of Binocular does present Menorah the opportunity to be the first Supreme winner since Bula to win this the next year but I still think Hurricane Fly will put all the novices in their place.
In the cross country the age and weight might finally tell with the top 2 in the market and it could pay to side with 2 horses with decent course form and who have age and weight on their side - Sizing Australia and Another Jewel.
No massive thoughts on the final handicap yet - a tentative selection goes to Tullamore Dew who can go one better than his 2nd in the Coral CUp last year.
If I dig out anything during the day it will be on the tweets.
0.5pts e/w Tullamore Dew 9/1 (bet365,SJ, WH)
1pt e/w Sizing Australia 8/1 (bet365)
1.5pts e/w Another Jewel 16/1 (WH)
1.5pts e/w Sunnyhillboy 6/1 (bet365, PP - 5 places)
