Aintree Day 2 2022

…45 still in Topham for those checking double entries with the National.
 
L'homme Presse, Fury Road and Ahoy Senor in the Mildmay... But for Pic D'ohry you'd think Nichols would take serious look at Brave Man's Game running over the shorter trip on Thursday

Spectre what was your impression of Skytastic when he won the race Jeffery's Cross ran in? He's in the Sefton and for once I'd rather be with the GB based horses.
 
I think he's a smart horse TH. I assume they think Good Risk At All is very well handicapped and Skytastic will be the one for the Sefton. I prefer his additional experience to Walking On Air and therefore his price too.

El Fabiolo cut across from 8/1, 7/1 to around 9/4, could face Jonbon who opened up 8/11 or so.
 
Rumours jonbon doesn't go at all this weekend.. if that is the case, potential for a good price or 2 to be had.

2pts El fabiolo/WOA mersey novice I've had myself.

….and I suppose the El Fab 33-1 win today/Arkle; 33-1 win/Marsh would look more value.

Heard the same rumours - pretty sure he is going for the 2 mile race based on what i've heard from other sources
That being said, strange things can happen at Seven Barrows overnight!

….hoping Morning Vicar squeezes into the Topham. Unseated rider in the race last year, Henderson saying this has been the aim all season.

Redemption day for langer Dan?

To go in again or not to

Anyone Goes 4/1+ il be very tempted
 
Topham plays

Batcio and Pink eyed pedro
 
Jonbon, Bravemansgame, Fakir D favs treble 12/1 with sky had a go at that best price. Not sure if L’homme will turn up but Bravemansgame is fresh as well. Fakir fresh won it last year, Jonbon should be too good in that field.
 
One bet for me tomorrow

Langer Dan 3/1 all in

Happy to just watch the other races if he gets beat and have no interest in the handicaps bar maybe Washington in the last but he's a lot shorter than I was hoping for

Did exactly that mate. Travelling tomorrow so this will be my only bet along with the 10er (back if 2 or 3) on El Fab with Sky.
