Aintree

NEXT SENSATION for me would have most likely won the red rum hcap looking how close claret cloak was. this course will suit him more than cheltenham they wont see which way he's gone.

wilde blue wonder should win the first

i fancied minella for value for the national, so he should go really well at 16s with davy russell up.

i reckon kashmir peak could be well handicapped in the conditionals race and he's been running decent races on the a.w. keeping fit waiting for decent ground, 22/1 stable does well in these races.

I really fancy Balder Succes in the 2:05. A horse I've loved all year over fences. His only bad run (Hinterland won race) was when he was wrong, 'All the Kings Horses' (:whistle:) were sick at that time... Being kept fresh for this is going to be a very telling factor tomorrow I believe. He's a beautiful jumper and will have no problem going with the pace that Next Sensation and Trifolium will set. They'll give him the perfect toe into the race... I'm all over the 4/1 on this if I can get it!

Hoovered up a lot of 4/1 today tough!

Just been looking at SILVER CROSS STAYERS´ HURDLE tomorrow. Looking to see what could I oppose AFC with... And I came to Thousand Stars and thought.... Surely not!?!

Grasshopper has always said one of these days..... Could tomorrow be the day??

Typically game performance from the old boy. :cool:
 
Disappointed with MR, but I don't believe that is his true form. Just looks gone at the game right now.

Anyway, I look forward to see him chasing next season, he might appreciate a fence. Well done to the winner though.

AFC ran a circuit with a shoe hanging off and I wonder whether that was why he kept jumping right and he probably lost a good deal more than he was beaten by . I am not quite so sure why AP was so desperate to be going so fast - Whisper was beaten out of sight by AFC over 2m 4f last year .

The ride on Zarkandar was baffling . He was much the best 2m 4f horse in the race and they rode him as if needed 4 miles . Thousand Stars looks as if he does need 4 miles nowadays .

Melodic Rendezvous hit one quite hard in the back straight which might explain why he dropped out so fast but he looked out on his feet and the most likely thing is that he did not stay . Unimpressed that Schofield did not pull him up - why do jockeys ask way beaten dropped out horses to continue to jump ?

More of that looks a very good horse, i have him in mid 160s
Is lightly raced and can improve but the form of the world hurdle is very weak with AFC exposed and AP so overrated.
 
What's your assessment of Solwhit Sunny, do you think he would have won this years WH
