Aghhhhh. Pipped on the line. He's a bit of a monkey Tofino Bay. Went again when the winner got to him and crossed the line with his ears pricked. Rival D'Estruval falling didn't do TB any favours. Jumping OK but a few guessy ones perhaps indicates why novices shouldn't take on the GN.
Mugged by the Mullins' .. I am sure that a tougher Jock would have driven him home. He'll defo get the GN trip, as will Back in Focus !!
"He didn't get tired, just lonely" said Nina. Idler or not he's a very likeable sort - covered my modest losses from yesterday so very likeable indeed ;o) It was 33 secs slower than standard so, other than novice status, main concern at Aintree would be the pace at which they would go if the going were decent- that would really test his jumping. I'll do an update on the GN stats shortly.
Sportingbet do a free bet (up to £50) - no risk! Mate bet £50 that one horse would beat another. As it happened, it came in, but if it hadn't, Sportingbet would have refunded his £50! Unbelievable offer.
