09/06/18 8:35 Stratford - System

1st Buachaill Alainn 4/1 - 60
2nd Victor Leudorum 28/1 - 45
3rd Gorsky Island 7/2 - 30
3rd Dandy Dan  3/1 - 30

BA came back from a break and won nicely but was put up 6lb for this.  My worry is he hasnt won off this mark since June 2013 and he is now 11. He also has never won carrying top weight. Positives is he will love the ground and in 15 runs, he has been in the top 3 10 times, 5 times winning. He has placed at Stratford before, and trainer is in good form. Im not sure he can win, i would probably go against him, but he stays so i think a place is on the cards.

VL is 1lb lower than his last C&D win, this looks slightly tougher though. He has since changed yard and was off nearly 2 years. and hasnt seemed right since, his stats here are 4, 1, 1, 5. I am concerned about his recent poor form though

GI was just beaten in this a year ago over 1f further. He is now 8lb lower in the weights. He hasn't had good ground since that run, until his last 2 runs where he showed improvement with a 5th and 2nd last time out. I think he would go well.

Dandy Dan is a strange one. He is stepping up a 1 mile in distance, he looks bred to stay though so this could suit well and bring out massive improvement. Cannot discount him

I am sticking with my system, but i really wouldnt put you off Gorsky Island or  Dandy Dan

My Selection: Buachaill Alainn 4/1

  1st Corach Rambler 11/2 - 85 2nd Delta Work 18/1 - 60 3rd Galia Des Liteaux 25/1 - 50 3rd Aint That A Shame 50/1 - 50 3rd Chambard 66/1 - 50 3rd Noble Yeats 16/1 - 50 (FYI 4th Vanillier & Mac Tottie 45, 5th Nassalam, Limerick Lace, Run Wild Fred 40. 6th Latenightpass, Minella Indo & Eklat De Rire 35) I kind of feel disappointed that only one horse i like got into the top here. It does contain 2 previous winners of the race and after doing the system, i will conceed that Corach Rambler has a massive chance to follow up here, however we all saw the effort he put in at Cheltenham, it blew me away and it was well reported exactly how tired he was after the race. That worries me as it wasnt that long ago, althougth everything points to another very good run. He has been given a big chance at the weights here, as a lot of you know i am very into the weights carried in this race and at the bottom i will name 4 horses who i would not touch and one of them i actually really liked unti
