    Imperial Cup Sandown Sat 9th March 2019

    https://www.racingpost.com/racecards...9-03-09/722048

    Seems as if there's quite a move for David Pipe's Extra Mag today,having been backed from 20/1 into 8/1. Plenty of rain forecast which will help. This horse also holds entries in four races at The Festival so another one chasing the £100k bonus ?

    In my experience the ones that we lose sleep over are the ones that do us in!

    Well he's in the Imperial Cup on Saturday. After his last run over 2M5F I thought he'd be staying over longer distances. Let's see if he stays in The Coral Cup.

    Good luck with it. I seem to recall you having a long range shout on Mohaayed last year, so let's hope for more of the same.

    That was Danny, Simmo! I fancied Mohaayed the year before in the 2017 County Hurdle when he finished 7th! So needless to say I was kicking myself when he romped home last year, should have listened to Danny.

    Pleased to see Dream Du Grand Val declared

    Got Festival entries as well, and looks an improving horse for Henderson

    Does Dan Skelton know what hes doing?I'm sure he does.considering they didnt enter soloman in the m.pipe they must have planned this.
    If it wins the imperial it would definitely get in the coral.he might still get in with the latest decs.
    I'm backing it in both.
    The step up in trip clearly suited last time.

    Solomon Grey raced prominently the last day over 2M5F so it wouldn't surprise me if they made the pace this Saturday, over the shorter distance. Hopefully he'll be hard to get past.

    Nah I've only got £50 each way on at 20's for the Coral Cup anti-post but it's not NRNB. I want him running on Wednesday.

    Solomon Grey a non runner unfortunately lads. What does that mean for his festival entry now - are they taking a view that with latest entry numbers, he has a chance of getting in the Coral cup now anyway?
