That’s OK I think.
I can’t imagine you’ll be able to get fortunes on but that’s as solid a 5/6 bet you could have even this far out….
 
….notice Sky have finally cut Captain Teague to 16-1 from 33-1 Ballymore. 33-1 from 40-1 Supreme with BFSB.

I think I read Nicholls saying his last Champion Bumper runner was Al Ferof who finished 2nd to Cue Card. I’m sure somebody will say if that’s wrong, but it indicates he’s not one for running one on the CB. Al Ferof went on to win the following years Supreme.

I’ll be that man. It is wrong as he ran Ask For Glory and Flic Ou Voyou back in 2019. Wouldn’t be surprised if the fat man forgot some more too.

….cheers Jackie. On reflection, maybe the Nicholls quote was regarding his placed horses in the CB, that might make more sense but could still be wrong.
 
…Elliott says Found a Fifty runs in the 2m Top Novice Hurdle on the Friday of the GN meeting.

I know a few have highlighted FAF for next year, could be an opportunity to get a WTAF offer.

I notice folk on here using WTAF abbreviation. Some will be interested in ‘win today’ odds if offered for Aintree.

She was really good today. An exciting horse to look forward to next season.

Although she was the only runner with any sort of form in the book, she still had to beat the boys and she was impressive. She’s still just about a backable price for me although I’d rather she didn’t run again this season.
