No, but I imagine Jasmin wins the Brown Advisory if it goes chasing. If it stays hurdling it wins the Stayers.

I was wondering how long this would take; must book my Gold Cup day ticket on the off chance Lecky shows up in full health.

Couldn't resist the 17/2 on Galopin Des Champs to come back for redemption

I've looked at all the markets and I try and target those where I think the front of the lists are there to be taken on either because they are overrated, too old, will likely go for a different race or have a history of not making the Festival or the Sir Gino principle as I like to call it.
L'Eau du Sord QM 33/1 - reasoning on the two mile chasers thread.
Sixandahalf Mares Hurdle 14/1. I felt being up with the pace made her vulnerable in the Mares Novice and getting a lead on the old course will suit her. Lossie and BDA unlikely to go here and Jade de Grugy might go chasing according to the owner.
Grey Dawning Ryanair 14/1. I like that he missed the Festival this season and would hope Dan would be more likely to go here than the GC, which he surely must if F2F heads for the blue ribband. Banbridge, Majborough, Ballyburn are other towards the head of the this market. Can't have any of them.
The Big Westerner BAdv 20/1. Biggest price I saw on this mare was 25s but I couldn't back that (Entain). She a lot shorter for the Mares Chase but is a big boaty type who surely needs three miles.
I also like Lossiemouth and The New Lion for the Champion Hurdle as Con Hill is a terrible fav for that but I don't get involved under 10/1 this far out.

Bump.
James has a tidy looking Lulamba bet and I'm happy with The Big Westerner.
As for 2027, Unibet have priced up some races and I've taken 20s about El Cairos for the Champion.

Marine Nationale is out of the festival.
Terrible. Was hoping to load in Maj odds against on the day.

Chances of watering ?
Joseph O'Brien was of the opinion that they are considering it Monday , believe it or not.
Hope there is enough of a risk of rain forecast for them to have sense.

Looks like rain every day of the festival too. May not have to water.
BBC are saying the opposite, there are rain bands coming next week but how hit and miss they'll be no one can predict atm
Will have a better idea on Sunday

My app says different too, amazing how they can all come up with different things when they are privy to the same data.
Being local I reckon they struggle to have any real accuracy until they get within 48 hours.

I know weather forecasts aren't a precise science, but I sometimes use the above websites to help read a weather update for local radio, but the amount of times they get it wrong is quite bad.
I only use them now if I have to record the day before the broadcast.
Otherwise I just use my own eyes on the day.
