    How's the form from the 2016 festival?

    It's been quite clear now how well the form of the 4 miler at the 2016 festival has turned out and it got enhanced once again on Saturday when Vieux Lion Rouge won the Becher Chase at Aintree (he finished 6th that day). Tony Keenan also mentioned a horse the other day who I had backed in March...
