garde champetre in the cross country despite his big weight won pulling a cart last year and edna bolger has a 100% record in the race.

in the champion hurdle the furious pace will play into binnoculars hand`s,it was sent to the front too soon last year and will make an ammends this time has it will for harchibald but my preferance would be for ap mccoys mount.

in the gold cup i can see nichollls winning with his 3rd string neptune collognes only just pipped for second last year and denmans form last time makes it hard to fancy while kauto star may struggle to get home neptunes has been in fine form winning two grade ones in ireland this term.

Nearly there then, the excitement is killing me now. So far today I've done...

13.30 - Go Native e/w

14.05 - Forpadydeplasterer e/w

14.40 - Nenuphar Collonges e/w

15.20 - Whiteoak e/w

Also done a double with Cousin Vinny and Tatenen and have about 15 ante-post bets running on to (hopefully) the two bankers of the festival..... Binocular today and Master Minded tomorrow. If those two win I'm already guaranteed to have had the best festival in my lifetime by some way.

Good luck all..

Agree with 2 of them Briareus E/w 20.
But more i read about Rite of pasage more i beleive this is certanty even though W Mullins as half the feild this horse is bred to win a Derby never mind this race and Weld is very bullish about is chances and he has booked P Smullen the top Irish flat Jockey.
This could be the best bet of the meeting .
Also i fancy What a Freind.
