I've been given that tip too, put a few bob on it and will see what comes in. Seabass has had his odds drop this morning from 16/1 to 9/1 I've got some hopes pinned on him now

Serious question for your racing fans, how do you manage to follow the form with so many horses. not just for the national but for all the meetings with all the races?

To be honest, form goes out the window when the GN comes along. Its easier to pick a few winners at the other big races like Cheltenham festival etc.
