    There's one or two rated better than him in the yard, the reason he's out this early is he's further forward than the others..

    Shantou Village has an entry at Fontwell on Friday
    Some people say he’s the best since Arkle and that’s certainly true when you look at what he’s done

    Nice advertisement for their racing club too. Get a few fancy looking winners on the boards early

    Hopefully chasing home that machine on goodish ground hasn't bottomed him

    Impressive round by Frodon today, now eligible for BetVictor Gold Cup if they wanted to run.

    That would take some balls to run after what happened to Granit Jack, Has Frodon had chasing experience in France?

    One chase in France. I'd be surprised if he's good enough to be honest.

    A bit of market opposition to Alpha Des Obeaux this morning. Is nearly 6/4 on the machine a gift?

    You'd be disappointed to see him get beat with the aspirations Mouse has for him, but his rivals are race fit and Westerner Lady looks a decent sort.
