Great racing today. 9th April 2026


I am keen to take Lulamba on at odds on here.
I thought it was quietly under the pump at Chelktenham last time.
Could be a good lay to back.

Good luck everyone.

Thanks,

Mark

It traded well last year, so I'm looking forward to getting stuck in this year.

I see Blogger was raving about it, so that almost certainly killed its chances.

Looked as though it was that bookie who laid the £100k bet trying to get out

9/2 ISP. Must be one of the shortest ever?

Oh, of course, Tiger Roll was 4/1 in 2019.

I think the lowering of the fences and the smaller number of runners is making it more of a favourite's race. It always used to be pretty much completely random, but it's obvious now that the favourites and/or the favoured horses are more likely to win now.

Still a horrid watch considering they've lowered the fences so much
