Another hype horse that does'nt get up the hill. Grand Crus- another One Man, get him back to 2.5m.

Finian's Rainbow did last years Arkle form no harm at all. got 14s for Captain Chris in the Ryanair, be quick, got Pricewise written all over it.

Saved the day, but only for peanuts, I wished I'd had as much riding on Champagne Fever as I did on Monksland

1.30 Peddlers Cross 5/1
2.05 Sonofvic 11/1 Ew
3.20 Big Bucks 9/4
Oscar Whisky 9/4 no fav
4.40 Notus De La Tour 16/1 Ew
4.40 Mostly Bob 16/1 Ew
Start Me Up 14/1 Ew

Got a good bet on Peddlers tomorrow, think if he shows up and is in good nick will take some stopping glad I got on with Hills when they went 5's and still think 7/2 is a great price, tempted to top up on him tomorrow e/w if he drifts out to 4's.

2.05 Sivola De Sivola

2.05- Restless Harry
3.20- Mikeld'hagaunet
4.00- Tartak
4.40- Benbane Head

My big fancy of the day is Captain Chris at 14s. Finian's Rainbow more than franked his Cheltenham form yesterday!

Was going to leave this race as it looks to hard to call but after seeing the price I have done Rubi Light @ 10/1 Ew

Price has gone right out recently due to the ground not that it bothered it last year though when coming 3rd.

That was a great run being only a 6yo and bar one run in France it was its Novice chase season, its stronger this season as expected running well would of beat Sizing Europe but for a fall and ran well in the Lexus just didnt get 3 miles.

Races up with the pace which seems to be the way to go this week.

Totesport going 9/4 for Big Bucks to win the World Hurdle by 5 lengths or under - cracking value I reckon! Possibly the hardest World Hurdle he's ran and surely theres one good enough to get within 5 lengths, Grands Crus got within 1 and half last year.

What a day with still a race to go! Took Riverside Theatre, Big Bucks and Salut Flo in a SkyBet special 50/1 treble too!

phew!

Big bucks and salut flo have dug me out of a hole...ready for the last day now!!
