Aintree 1.20 - Shanagh Bob 33/1, 5 places - On jockey bookings he looked (2 NRs) the least fancied of the Hendo handful but he was only 7/2 for the G1 here last year and was presumably thought to be at least a 140 animal. He's off 129 here. I wonder if Nico will now switch to him.

Edit - Also Robicheaux's Dartan from the race thread. 100/1 is, as Ian says, far too big. Its best rating from last year, gained on good ground, would put it top on my figures (if vulnerable to improvers).
