Very unspectacular!!

Nice boost for the Alexei form though with the 1st two at Ascot finishing 1&2 again.

Alexei finished just behind Hot Fuss at Ascot giving him 1 Stone 10lbs .
 
Having a good cut at Protektorat with a few roll ups today.

He's better than these anyway and he's getting weight from all of them (bar the outsider). This will be his cup final (again) with the prize money on offer and Skelton gunning for the Trainers title. Surprised he's odds against to be honest.

Won this by 23 lengths last season, with an 8lb penalty that he's not got today. And Djelo was in 2nd who I'd have better than all of today's opposition.

He was the Roll Ups of Roll Ups wasn't he. Super SP. Should have been well odds on.

Aye, actually made harder work of it than I expected to be honest. Nice boosts on about every horse I want to back for the festival though 😂
 
I've just played Texans to win the Super Bowl - varying from 5/1 to 17/2 as an I play bet - winner of this game plays the Broncos who will have their back up QB.

Texans D is ferocious, so really winning this game gets them in the Super Bowl in my opinion. They would be no bigger than 2/1 in game so think it's a good value play that could be a roll up for a shorty - but small stakes only


Edit: incredible what half an hour can change

Will be looking to use Impose Toi at evens in the Cleeve with 365 in a few roll ups, can’t really understand how he isn’t strong odds on.

The only rival anywhere close on ratings, Strong Leader, he’s beaten twice already this season, both different in the way the race was run. Just as effective at Cheltenham whereas the track doesn’t seem to suit Strong Leader as much, can’t see how that form gets turned around.

The others have lots to find even receiving weight, I just can’t see any of them showing enough improvement to bridge the gap.

I was expecting 4/6 or shorter. Evens is a gift I think.

Thurles 2.17 Laurets D'estruval @ odds against (11/10) could be an absolute gift, IMO

The second fav looked like bolting up last time COD, fell at the last when clear I’m sure, kazansky picked up the pieces.

Obviously a danger, but I think Laurets is a level above. Horse he finished 2nd to first time out for Willie finished only 10 lengths behind Talk The Talk at the DRF next time out.

Kazansky is a 3 miler, and Le Labo can't be trusted with his jumping. He's had two runs, unseated first time then fell the next.
