If Might Bite ends up at 4/1 then I’ll be having a pretty big bet with the insurance of money back e/w
 
I can’t have him out of the top 3 so at 4/1 I can slightly hedge with money back at e/w
 
Coneygree and Waiting Patiently both running on today's ground :grumpy:

After all the bollocks both yards have talked,
Nob-ed's.
Hope they both get stuffed.
 
Thank you Waiting Patiently for providing a fine Christmas
 
Whos everyone on in the Welsh National?
 
I think elegant escape is made for this race
 
Today is the day that Any Second Now wins a big handicap. (3.00 Leopardstown)

11/1 - 7 places with PP.

He's clearly considered better than his handicap mark, the combination of first time headgear and the step up to 3m on the same day is a big neon 'back me'.
 
I am a bit down already as was hoping for Ms Parfois to run and win this!

I fancy Elegant escape, but atm 5s looks to short. So gunna run through the market and see if any hidden ew value to be had elsewhere!
 
Vintage Clouds e/w for me today, much like you Big Bucks I do fancy Elegant Escape here but can't say that price entices me in
 
Vintage Clouds and Any Second Now are my main bets in the two big races today.

Vintage Clouds looks very solid and will thrive over this extended trip. Any Second Now remains well handicapped and has to win a big pot before too long.

*Just read your post Kev. Agreed.
 
Vintage clouds , Jenny's surprise o/sider - welsh nat, Black Scorpion - 3-00 lpdstn.

Good to hear we're on the same page Kev. I thought the first time headgear was interesting and if it can make him concentrate then he's definitely handicapped to win one of these. That said, it could also have the effect of lighting him up too much, so he's a win only bet for me
 
SOLOMN GRUNDY 8/1, great chance and even insurance if want to go ew, surely wont be out of the frame? Well in here, prob bet of the day now for me
 
Had a tenner win on Charrapal Prince, gutted
