As usual, I will be doing the full analysis (warts and all) after the festival ... and I won't include ANY multiples in these daily posts. You'll just have to trust me
Supreme
4 pts in non runners (result!)
58.5 pts live
All 17 horses backed.
Cannot make a net loss for the race regardless of the results.
Top result is actually Mister Fisher but Aramon, Klassical Dream and Angel's Breath will all be welcome, with the latter two being my 'main selections'
Arkle
35 pts in non runners (wounded)
31 pts live
Hardline, Lalor, Slate House are profitable alone
Ornua, Clondaw Castle, Articulum would almost wipe me out
The rest are covered somewhat and would require some each way help to get above the line
Most difficult ante post position I am in, hopefully the 3 mentioned can do the business.
Ultima
3 pts non runners (Walt)
12.5 pts live
Coo Star Sivola - ew 45/1 and 40/1
Minella Rocco - ew 33/1 and 22/1
Noble Endeavor - ew 20/1
Royal Vacation - ew 33/1
Singlefarmpayment (10 places) - ew 8/1
Like some others but happy with my spot
Champion Hurdle
3.1 pts in non runners (mainly Summerville Boy who I didn't fancy anyway and some wild ones on the exchanges)
24.5 pts live
Apples Jade - ew 8/1 and 6/1
Laurina - 12/1
Buveur D'air - 11/4
Sharjah - ew 15/1
Melon - ew 22/1
Best result is Laurina in terms of a single win but not a hugely important race in terms of monies
Mares5 pts in non runners (Apple's Jade)
18.5 pts live
Benie Des Dieux - 6.5/1 (rolling from a double)
Stormy Ireland - ew 10/1 and 8/1
Limini - ew 9/1
Roksana - ew 18/1
Mia's Storm - ew 28/1
Elimay - ew 25/1
I know I wasn't including multiples, but if any of the big 3 win the CH, BDD is worth min of 60 pts
Close Bros
2.5 pts non runner (Speaker Connolly - schoolboy error!)
22.5 pts liveA Plus Tard - ew 15/2
Lough Derg Spirit - ew 22/1
Quamino - ew 20/1
Highway One O One - ew 18/1
Cubomania - ew 25/1
Walt - ew 20/1
Red Indian - ew 25/1
Militarian - ew 66/1
Definitely not my best race either... especially as I missed some prices around the favs...
Good luck all
