No I didnt back Deep Purple today, missed it! Looks like its shaping up to be a good chaser and fulfil the potential it showed last year

Oh I am Nail! 

Would have been a nice wee double there with AP McCoy in the last.  You dont see him riding too many 10-1 shots.

Money to be made on this board!.....somewhere!

Thank God I was on the rip yesterday and didn't read the hype around Jericho.  Could have lost a fortune. I reckon I'll follow McCoy closely today.

Fancy Pettifour for the Long Walk, can't resist taking the 17.0 available on Betfair for the World Hurdle either so watch him break a leg now today.

Binocular is drifting all morning but I still think he'll take all the beating in the Hurdle.

[Our Nail Loney]

I have went for the Henderson/AP double, Binocular and Aigle d'Or

[Homer]

Haven't heard a thing for him but Line Ball looks interesting 2.00 Navan. A possible Christmas earner for Christy Roche?

[Our Nail Loney]

Have done AP's five runners today (Oedipe, Binocular, Duc de Regniere, Aigle dor and I'm the decider) Ten £2 trebles, five £2 quads and a £5 ew accum...

Heres hoping for another super saturday from the master!!

[Hardy]

I think Katchit is the value bet in the hurdle. People have it in their heads that he can only run at Cheltenham and I'm sure this is adding a point or two to his price that's unjustified. He's running against three four-year-olds and a mare. Four-year-olds don't have a good record in this race. Katchit should be fit after two good outings which he lost because of ground and huge weight. He's only giving 6lb at worst this time and that to the four-year-olds.

[Hardy]

What a load of nonsense.

Some show by the winner, though. Surely a shoo-in for the Champion Hurdle.
