Every fibre of my being tells me this is not a race to get carried away with as a betting proposition.
But every single one of those fibres is also screaming at me that this is going to be a one horse race and win, lose or draw, Tiger is going to be 13/8 fav at the absolute most. I might just get stuck into into him a bit more now and lay him off on the day if the ground came up heavy or Prengarde got an entry. With Easysland seemingly off his tits, Ajas MIA and Prengarde possibly not running here for some reason now.. Tiger just isn’t a 3/1 shot. On good or good to soft ground, I wouldn’t even be surprised if he went off ever so slightly odds on.
Racing loves a fairytale and a five time festival winner getting his ending and riding off into the sunset as a 6 time winner.. he’s just certainly going to be a fair way shorter than 3/1.

The lack of credible opposition is a great reason to get carried away.
Festival form (barring stayers) of 111121 is a superb reason to get carried away.
All the horses quoted 10/1+ are either NR or 130/140 horses when Tiger is a 160+ performer is a great reason to get carried away.
Three 12 year olds have won - Tiger would go into the race as the best 12 year old so age shouldn't stop you getting carried away.
Tiger is better and more experienced at his obstacles than anything else, so his experience should allow you to get carried away.
With the NR's, weight of public support and all these points becoming realised in preview nights, he'll go off even money or worse, so at 3/1 get fuc*ing carried away.

Iv got stuck in to the Skybet enhanced double Tiger Roll and Allaho at 11/1 I think that's a stonking price for two horses that are just way ahead of anything else they will face and it could easily be a 2/1 double by the time the cross country kicks off. Iv maxed out my allowed stake on it, so if I feel so enclined I can lay off the stake on the day for a free go at a decent return.

They also have Tiger Roll with Billaway at 28/1 (ante post) .... best price I can see is 16/1 NRNB
Just realised. These prices are all subject to Antepost rules. Still a good price, but not quite as good (and a little more risky). e.g. Kev's example is 'normal price' 24/1 with Skybet.

I really liked that one too as a chance to get Billaway on side, don't know why I didn't back it straight away left it like a dickhead then backed it at its new odds of 25/1 instead.
