    I'm gonna try Westover in the big one, 10/1. Becketts in form and the horse looked a good un not long back, bad run being Pyledriver but had excuses.

    5.00 going for Fang 7/1

    Ground gone against platinum queen a bit which is a put off but still well off on weights. Hedging with Mo Celita 16/1 though now.

    I've done SEALIWAY eway 40/1 ( 5 places bet365 ) on Friday & today they gave me a £5 free bet which I did on ALPINISTA at 5/1 .

    In the 1.50 I've backed the German raider HABANA at 6/1 with £ back if comes 2nd , 3rd or 4th with sky bet .

    In the 3.50 I fancy MY ASTRA ( haggas / marquand ) not had bet though )

    Good luck to those having a bet & @TomPNE94 who's there , bet it's crap compared to Ffos Las :laugh:

    Not Cheltenham but I'm going to Kempton family fun day on Monday (almost as glamorous), so if any of you know what I should stake my mortgage on then please do let me know.

    Otherwise I'll go for funny names or ones that look like a QPR shirt.

    Nice one, thanks. Backing to win or each way?

    Yeah, its a 10 minute walk from my house and it's a family day; so it'll be horrendous. Hopefully a win a long the way will make it okay

    Yea to win, I don't like to back each way, it's for those of no confidence. I'd sooner back another horse than each way, the place never pays much anyway. I'll keep it small though, the races look quite trappy

    I think Shishkin wins the Aintree bowl. I know he was shit at Cheltenham, but this smaller field might go a more sedate pace and allow Nico to just sit in behind Ahoy Senor and take it down the straight. Small price though now what with Brave NR especially.

    The other races I haven't looked at much yet, I'm off tomorrow, kids are at nursery all day and missus is going into the office, so that was gonna be my morning, doing a spot of swatting
