Guaranteed BOO will be slaughtered. There's been such a coordinated response by Kevin, Joseph and connections to play down that race, they know they've fucked up
 
It's always interesting how we get market movements right before the weights are released.

Main movers this morning:

Mister Whitaker (Ultima)
Tower Bridge (CB)
Getaway Trump (CC)
First Assignment (Pertemps)
Chtibello (County)

I’m fairly sure trainers are given the entire pack the day before.
I used to know someone at a Newmarket stud and she always had the media pack the day before, so take note of any ‘blue’ as they’ve probably been treated more leniently than expected...
 
At least the storyteller is rated below 160 in the Coral Cup
 
Baring in mind how good a record the higher weights have in the Coral Cup I think I’d still be heading there over the Ryanair if he was mine
