Plus 4 and dry when driving in.

I am still recovering from what the handicapper did to two of my Aintree chasers yesterday..

Espoir De Romay up 5lbs for falling, so I just hope Richard Young is right in his thoughts..As for poor Happygolucky, up 8 for winning by just under 3 lengths.. and there were no Irish runners in either race to compare!!

We now have some top chasers in the yard..First Flow heads the list with 166, Imperial Aura 162, Espoir De Romay 160, Vinndication 159, Happygolucky 157, Two For Gold 150, El Presente 147, and One For Rosie 145..

As a matter of interest.. Envoir Allen has a BHA rating of 164 as has Monkfish...

Back to today.

David Bass, Ciaran Gethings, Chester Williams and Harry Beswick were in to ride out..
