    VALSEUR LIDO

    "Elliott, Gigginstown, won't be wearing a maroon cap with a white star. Wears headgear, stays well. Not temperamental - but not as good as he was either."

    Isnt it a De Bromhead horse??? Very lazy Journalisim!

    • ....plenty of rain overnight here in Liverpool and still falling now. I’m sure that is welcome for most.

      • The rain is a negative but I'm really liking Step Back in this now. He's going to be my number 1 selection.

          He’s been my main interest since demolishing his Whitbread field last April but it’s all about his feet, if they’re good to go on Sat morning we have a chance...

          • With Abolitionist out my choices against each field are

            Rathvinden 2.5U e/w 14/1
            Mall Dini 1.5U e/w 25 and 28/1
            Ramses De Teillee 1U e/w 36/1
            Joe Farrell 0.5u e/w 33/1


            If Farrell doesn’t get in I will put that on Valseur Lido as I’ve folllowed the horse it’s whole career, and love Rachel Blackmore, doubt it stays though.

            And I’m kidding myself to act like I won’t have £20 on the Tiger just in case and as a thanks to getting me out of a whole on the Wednesday!

              Plenty more today and tomorrow then bright sunshine for the 3 days would be ideal

                  Same here Ista. I went right off him during the winter but he's firmly back on my radar now.

                    ....quite a lot of rain through the night but it stopped about 8am and it’s been fine and dry since.

                      Hopefully just enough to stop them watering further

                        It’s gone now unfortunately, I put it on after the festival with some of my money left over in the 365 account

                        • Some move for Joe Farrell.

                          Getting jocked up now



                          look like Ultragold goes here

                          Mark Walsh on Regal Encore ?

                              Joe Farrell is Hugh Taylor’s selection if he makes the cut, that will have supported the gamble I’m sure.

                              • Just trying to think of who will come out of it

                                I’d still be really surprised if Blow by Blow came here despite having a jockey booking
                                Magic Light?
                                Regal Encore?
                                Up for Review?

                                Struggling to find the 2 needed
