We usually have one of these

Place the horses that will make your festival (financially) if they win

1) New To This Town
2) Shantou Flyer - 4miler
3) Thistlecrack
 
This will change after subsequent bets but right now...

1. Douvan
2. Minella Rocco
3. Yanworth & Thistlecrack return about the same

Just to add, unusually for me I had 3 ante post accumulators. One has fallen by the wayside as it included Faugheen and wasn't NRNB, one included Faugheen NRNB but had Annie Power running in the Mares (not NRNB) but one has NRNB Faugheen, Min at 3/1, Douvan at 4/6 and Vroum Vroum Mag at 8/1 so ironically it's the absence of Faugheen that makes the bet live - or at least I hope so.

I'm left with five out of the original seven in my 'SuperHeinz':

Vibrato Valtat
Sceau Royal
Bristol de Mai
Altior
Alpha des Obeaux

Then lump the lot on Vautour!
 
You sound like something out of 'Mars Attacks', Frankel...........and I fully expect yer heid to explode, when the Vulture hits the front! :)
 
I took an ew multiple at big prices on the Tuesday the multiplied odds of which meant only a 50p and £1 stake took me to the respective bookies' limits. Unfortunately, it looks like at least one won't run:

Bachasson (Supreme)
Peace And Co (CH)
Desert Queen (Mares)
Vicente (NHC)
 
Feel so confident this season compared to last. In 2015 I was reliant on Josses Hill and King's Palace with Champagne Fever and Cue Card missing out.

1. Don Poli

2. Shantou Village
3. Altior
4. Ryanair - Vibrato Valtat or Valseur Lido
5. Sizing John (w/o Douvan)
6. Bristol De Mai
7. Desoto County
8. Queen Mother - Felix Yonger or Sire De Grugy (w/o UDS)
9. Plate - John's Spirit or Fingal Bay
10. CH - Peace and Co or Nichols Canyon

Don Poli wins me enough to ensure a profit on his own, otherwise I would think any combination of 2 of the others does the same.

A week away. I am now in the state of Djak attack. The white coat looms if anything other than a demolition job occurs.
Though a head up will suffice :cool:

Noble Endevaour
Gangster
Nicholas Canyon

(BTW, I have Min at 14/1 in an EW trixie with RtR Ryanair and Djak in GC.)


 
Three Musketeers

Special Tiara

Identity Thief

All ew and in combo's so places will suffice, but wins would be big returns.
 
Camping Ground best individual winner for me by far

York Hill any race

Waiting to pull trigger on O O Seven when I'm sure where he runs as long as he's not up against York Hill.
