Aintree 2019

I'll have to back Forest Bihan on Thursday if he runs in the Red Rum Chase. He should run his usual good race.
 
Six horses have been declared for the Betway Bowl at Aintree on Thursday. The runners are Balko Des Flos, Bristol De Mai, Clan Des Obeaux, Elegant Escape, Kemboy and Road To Respect.

Nine will feature in the Aintree Hurdle on Thursday. Buveur D'Air, Faugheen, Summerville Boy, Melon Supasundae and Verdana Blue are in the line-up but Apple's Jade, Samcro and Benie Des Dieux will not run.

Kind of think she's vulnerable. Been beating stayers like Lost.. and Top.. over 2m5 and 3m and now on a faster track she's up against speedier types.
 
Looks like the Bowl next Thursday is the plan for Kemboy. Hopefully track and decent ground will suit and the only downer is I've got no chance of getting a pass on the back of Cheltenham and a 4 day Las Vegas trip staring tomorrow :D
Only 3 hours from Euston to Aintree.:cool:

Great card today, class horses (Gold Cup and Champion Hurdle), competitive handicaps, promising youngsters. Was originally due to go but other things have conspired to make it impractical.
Have invested substantially on Kemboy, both in singles and as a cornerstone for some hefty multiples for today and the meeting overall. I decided to take on Buveur with both Supersundae and Verdana Blue. Lesser stakes on Band of Outlaws and Diego.
Whatever result should be fine racing. Nah, doesn’t work. GET IN KEMBOY!
 
Ground looks harder work than I thought it would be. Band of Outlaws never happy.
