    Catching On looks the one but I won't be touching it as I agree with peanuts the AP factor in its price just like Ned Buntlines yesterday,a great bet at 12/1 or 14/1 yesterday but not at the price it was.Its all about the prices not the winners

    He could cruise it but there's a hell of a lot that can go wrong in 4.25 miles.
    He's never been over fences at Uttoxeter and it's a course that, to some extent, has a touch of the Haydocks about it. Although the fences aren't massive they take some jumping in the frequently and peculiarly sticky ground. Not all horses (even among mud lovers) go well there.
    We shall see.

    Further rain has made the course officially now heavy, open ditch or water jump to be omitted due to standing water on the take off side.

    Peanuts have no fear I'm playing with bet365's money

    Heresy.
    I only like the big flat races/meetings.
    The rest is like dishwater to me.

    Mids GN .. the McCoy horse does look tempting despite the crazy price .. low weight, good recent record, rich owner etc etc .. how about Carruthers for a most unlikely Bradstock/Oaksey/De Boinville double ? ..

    I'll have £1 on an Irish tractor .. Goonyella

    I had him for the Welsh and he was a tad disappointing in 7th but apparently he'd lost a shoe during the race. Hopefully amends today.
