    Best of luck, Flaggers, and I hope you enjoy the whole experience as much as you can. I’m following Perfect Man in with a fiver.

    Leave the blinkers on. Visor won't make any difference.

    He's used to wearing blinkers so switching to a visor very unlikely to make a difference.

    Just noticed Eskylane no longer in the Martin Pipe.

    An absolutely brutal few days for my bets. Playing massive catch up before a race has been run

    Saldier and Blue Lord no longer WPM options for the County Hurdle.

    Ganapathi is going to be very popular now.

    I've had a very close look at the Coral Cup.

    Blue Sari might just be a certainty if it's over its breathing problems. It wears a tongue tie for the first time and carries JP's first colours. I've taken 16/1 and wouldn't be surprised if a gamble developed.

    I got it at 33/1, with Durasso at 40's for the County...and Flouer at 50's for the Martin pipe and a few others at cracking prices that are still in at the moment.

    Flouer is my biggest winner, should he accommodate...I was alerted to it when you started raving Koshari...watched the race and saw Flouer schooling round on the bridal...
