Rumour that Cousin Vinny didn't eat up well this morning and could even be NR?

Would be a disaster for the Owners but would also even the race up.

Cousin Vinny didn't travel well but other than that he's fine.

Supreme - Kangaroo Court (each way) - good solid form and romped home at Doncaster before running into a very nice horse in Karabak last time out. Stamina test will help and appreciates a sound surface (though handles soft). Best Price: 28/1 - VC, Sportingbet, Paddy Power, Hills

Arkle - Original (each way) - huge beast of a horse, winning form in France but turned the Wayward Lad into a procession at Kempton over Christmas and has been targeted at this race since by trainer Marcel Rolland. He's huge (18.25HH) and has been at Jean-Rene Auvray's Lambourn yard for the past week or so. Best Price: 18/1 Stan James

William Hill Chase - Golden Flight (each way) - Grade 1 class over in France and though making his UK debut he's with a trainer who's been known to get one ready for the Festival off a big lay off (The Bushkeeper and Non So spring to mind). Best Price: 25/1 Hills

Champion Hurdle - Othermix (each way) - Monster price for a horse who was just a couple of lengths behind Hurricane Fly (would have been fav for the Supeme Novices) at Auteuil last year. Since been bought by new owners and moved to Tom Georges (7 wins in last 13 runners prior to today). Already backed him myself at big prices and expect a big run though will come on for the run. Best Price: 150/1 VC

Cross-Country Chase - Garde Champetre(each way) - Enda Bolger farms this week year in year out and in Garde Champetre he's found another real lover of the course. Second favourite in the betting behind stablemate L'Ami but he has the Queen of Cross Country Nina Carberry on board tommorow and is likely to go close. Best Price: 4/1 Betfred and VC

Mares Hurdle - Oscar Rebel (each way) - Already advised a bet of Quevega in the race but she's now too short to consider backing. Her compatriot Oscar Rebel is a progressive young horse who brings good soft and good ground form into the race including in open company. Best Price: 14/1 Hills

Good luck to those already on the advised selections

Hope the RLFans guys (and girls) give the bookies a pasting tomorrow.

Mares Hurdle: CAROLE'S LEGACY

I expect I'll be laying all the favourites as well. As usual

Good luck folks.

Dan let me know where you got the 25's Quevega from, I need to bet with your bookie. Been backing her since November and still only got a top price of 16's.

Ive had a lucky 15 with Carneys E/W selections on the 4 best priced horses and an E/W double on the 2 shorter priced horses

And after taking advice, i've got £25 E/W on Merchent Paddy with my free bet in the 1st on Weds

Supreme NovicesCousin Vinny

ArklePlanet of Sound @ 16's although I understand it would like things a bitter softer

William HillPing Pong Silvola, which I think is now a non-runner as it's running elsewhere at Cheltenham so will plump for Maljimar e/w instead

Champion HurdleBinocular, but had a couple of quid each way last week on Othermix @ 125's, purely on the fact that Carney's Pint fanices it.

Lumping on Cousin Vinny, not a clue after that.

I'm dead if Othermix is beaten by looks of things.

If it's any help to supporters his trainer is bang in form - and i mean bang bang bang in form. 7 wins in his last 13 runners

I like to go for a few outsiders, theres some value.

1.30 Ainama
2.05 CALGARY BAY (NAP) - Will appreciate a strongly run race and will outstay rivals in sticly ground.
2.40 Millenium Royal
3.20 Osana, Sublimity, Katchit all good each way bets
4.00 Dix Villez
4.40 Chomba Womba

Major double keying error. Should read 14s. Wish it was 25s i could retire early!

1.30 - Go Native

2.05 - Follow The Plan

2.40 - Possol

3.20 - Ashkazar

4.00 - Garde Champetre

4.40 - Gaspara

All each way.
