1st Warriors Tale 16/1 - 75 2nd Happy Diva 9/2 - 70 3rd Javert 8/1 -45 3rd Azzuri 40/1 - 45 As you can see the first 2 named were well clear of the others, and the only thing that really pipped it for WT is the fact that his trainer is in great form, but before that Happy Diva really was the standout on all the other stats. Happy Diva beat Magic of Light in a Listed Mares race last time out, and she can be very competitive again today. Magic Of Light was fancied to win her last race but unseated, but its good form as MOL was in great form before that.  Everything is right again for Happy Diva and she has big claims. Warriors Tale is headed for the National i expect, so this is a stop gap. But he loves it here and Nicholls has won this race 8 times in its 15 runnings. WT stats at this track are 2, 2, 5, 1, 1, 2. Over C&D he is 1, 1. He also has big claims at a nice price. But dont ignore Nicholls other runners either. I am a fan of Javert. he won after 869 days off the

1st The Last Samuri 6/1 - 65 2nd Shanroe Santos 10/1 - 55 3rd Abolitionist 7/2 - 45 4th Houblon Des Obeaux 16/1 - 40 The Last Samuri ran well last time out for his new yard, in fact the race was a lot tougher than today and he has big place claims at least based on his last run. I am guessing his ultimate aim is the National again, so whatever he does here will be a bonus. His stats at 3m 2f are 1, 1, 3, 2, 2, 4. He will love the going and his stats in March are 1, 1, 2, 3. Hopefully he will go well today, despite carrying top weight. Shanroe Santos does need to fine more, he probably isnt up to the standard of The Last Samuri. But with the jcokeys claims, he is weighted to go well, and the distance and going is fine. Abolitionist has some great speeds. In fact on speeds he has a big chance. He came 1st over hurdles after over 400 days off the track, and beat some nice horses. He was 3rd in the Irish National  behind Our Duke, and he needs plenty of time between races. I ac
