Ultima Handicap Chase 2019

Kev,
I'll give you my 3 for this when I'm ready. Hopefully you'll do the same and we'll see how we go. Maybe a sporting bet???

Doc gets special treatment, as he's one of those people who will just pop up on the day and say "Humble Pie :highly_amused::highly_amused:" when Minella Rocco loses!

I'm off to 606 :p

MR could still be on the bridle after the last, 10 lengths clear, do a 'Devon Lock' and Doc would be on here like a flash telling us that the stats don't lie! :devilish:

You won't get me on here FM. Far to busy at the festival for this banter. I won't need to tell you the "flawless" stat, I'll leave that to Gault.

Can you reveal any more.

My 45/1 and 40/1 and pride are hanging on this tip this season
 
Crucial Role fits the recent trends of unexposed novices in this race. Horse is a great jumper, won't mind the ground and will probably be well in here compared to its current handicap mark. I think it would have won at Haydock had it not bled (re-watch race)

Strong stayer and uncomplicated. Backed it earlier for this race and the RSA (NRNB) but connections favouring here and so topping up at 16/1
