      Do we think Blaklion could come here or Sandown?

        At first glance I like Fagan and Vicente but I'll wait until nearer the time to see what the ground is like.

          If we can widen this to the whole Ayr meeting & this mini heatwave materialises - I don’t think Verdana Blue will be anywhere near the 10/1 you can get now for the Scottish Champion hurdle.

            Daklondike @ 25/1 is my only Ante Post bet in the race so far

              I couldn't wait any longer. Took Vicente 10/1 and Fagan 16/1, both each way.

                How much higher in the weights is Vicente this year?

                Folmsom Blue and Fagan are obviously massively interesting for Gordon "I literally can do no wrong" Elliott.

                  Does anyone know if Gold Present is an intended runner ?
                  Drying ground exactly what he needs, I liked his Aintree chances and think he could go very close if taking his chance...

                    I can't find anything on him Ista. He was very weak in the national betting all last week but I'm not sure if that was purely ground related or something else.

                    Kev - Vicente is 4lb higher than last season.

                      Just thought i'd mention to keep an eye out in the last race at Ayr on Saturday NH flat race...Nicky Henderson has in the past been quoted as saying he regularly targets this race with only something that is very highly regarded at seven Barrows...He won it last year with Pym and 2015 with William Henry and he also sent Sprinter there for it too...New moon and igor are his entries...

                        Money for Glencairn View and Label Des Obeaux today.
                        Both put up by ryan on the On The Hunt podcast...
                        Not sure if that is the reason why but he does make a good case for both, especially LDO who is 1 lb lower than winning on the same card last year.

                            I like Glencairn view, some better ground could see him improve again

                              The Young Master effectively has bottom weight with the 3lb the dentist is claiming, ground should suit, and is on the back of a fairly promising ride in the Kim Muir in conditions he wouldn’t have enjoyed. He’ll do for for me at 20/1.
