    Glad i picked Zabana in the first. Didn't even make it past the start line.

    That was the starters fault let them go with the horse sideways

    Speaking to Warren Greatrex yesterday and he is quite bullish about both Missed Approach (2.10) and Cole Harden in the World hurdle.

    Starters are a complete joke and never seem to receive any blame,they are the stuck up old farts brigade!

    The quicker the ground gets the better the chances of Cole Harden

    Tried to avoid talking in here as I'm absolutely flying and don't jinx it. Had the Vautour/Thistlecrack double obviously, and Black Hercules this morning.

    16:10 Stilleto, straight out of Ireland this tip.
