huntsman Posted April 5, 2014 Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 (edited) 1 Tidal Bay Form: 1-1532 (T: Paul Nicholls / J: Sam Twiston-Davies) Age: 13 Weight: 11st 10lbs He may be 13 years of age but he's still a major player here. Carries top weight off a mark of 161, but is seven pounds ahead of the handicapper. 3rd in this season's Welsh National off mammoth weight and second in Irish Hennessy last time. - Bet Now 16/1 Bet Now 2 Long Run Form: 2-54U1 (T: Nicky Henderson / J: Mr S Waley-Cohen) Age: 9 Weight: 11st 9lbs There's no doubting the class of this former Gold Cup and two times winner of the King George but the question is how much quality does he retain with some questionable performances in the past year. A reliable jumper on the whole and cannot be ruled out if on song and getting the trip despite his big weight. - Bet Now 16/1 Bet Now 3 Hunt Ball Form: 686934 (T: Nicky Henderson / J: Andrew Tinkler) Age: 9 Weight: 11st 7lbs Has struggled to recapture the heights of two seasons ago when winning seven and has yet to win since switching to the Nicky Henderson yard last year. Respectable efforts in two Grade One events this year show he's still got some ability but his weight and the fact he's never won beyond 2m4f are huge negatives and others are preferred. - Bet Now 50/1 Bet Now 4 Triolo D'Alene Form: 1-1310 (T: Nicky Henderson / J: Barry Geraghty) Age: 7 Weight: 11st 6lbs 2013 Hennessy Gold Cup winner but up ten pounds in the handicap for that effort. Well beat in the Gold Cup last time but that was very much a prep race for Aintree, where he has course form Having won the Topham last season. Looks to have very decent claims. - Bet Now 16/1 Bet Now 5 Rocky Creek Form: 113-22 (T: Paul Nicholls / J: Noel Fehily) Age: 8 Weight: 11st 5lbs Second season chaser who has been earmarked as a National horse from early in his career. Second in this season's Hennessy Gold Cup, he's an out and Need some help in choosing I am one of those arm chair once a year traditionalist betting person I wouldn't know a good horse from a bad one with 3 legs so whats your tip Edited April 5, 2014 by huntsman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
