Yep, I saw your post, DG....I believe I may even have thanked you for it.
Not sure what to read into it, if anything. Might just be McCoy would like to have ridden HF before he retired.

I must admit I think HF may well get in the 3 and at 10/1 with 888 bet might be worth a tickle. I think the hood worked the oracle with Jezki last year but has stopped working now. Can't see him winning but may be one to chase the machine home.

Arabian Revolution 4.40 first time blinkers
The Saint James 4.40 first time hood or tongue tie, what does HT1 mean ? If first time tongue tie doesn't qualify

Dell Arca fits into my system of following horses that have placed in previous years [albeit 5th in Coral Cup] and The Saint James is a Saint des Saints and I'm following those. I could do with Lac Fontana wearing a first time soemthing, but he's probably had several wind ops since last year. [of@15 horses today that placed last year 7 of them placed again 3x1 3x2 and 1x3rd, although there wouldn't have been much profit on them]

ht1 means wearing a hood, and a first-time tongue strap.
h1t1 would mean wearing both items for the first time.
I think

I know this dog of a thing The Nephew I won and lost a fair few bob on him...he's another Butlers Cabin....Head problem...but then Jonjo did win with him at the Festival.
If you can get about 50 on the machine he could be worth a back to lay I suppose........He'll travel well and jumps brilliantly but if he's pressured duck!!! as your very likely to get hit on the head with a mothercare rattle.
Horse has bags of ability if his jockey can kid him into using it.........The jockey rode a winner recently for Jonjo so he should be ok.
What has been added for the first time ..A baseball bat?
Formely Fist of Fury
The Nephew is for the other system based on Jonjo's runners running over 3m at the Festival, not the added headgear system
Here's another little "system" for you. Jonjo has had 23 winners at the Festival this century, 15 of them over a distance of 3m or further. A £1 level stake bet on these 15 horses would have returned £189.88.

I backed Modus today so thanks for that DG! But forgot to back The Saint James [damn]. I've already backed AFC but will probably back Uxizandre [placed last year]. And Double Ross [t1; my this years cliff horse].
I did back Uxizandre; thanks again!
I think some bookies were paying out first 5 on the Pertemps so Aqalim would have been placed.
