  1st Glory And Fortune 14/1 - 70 2nd Adagio 12/1 - 65 2nd Camprond 16/1 - 65 3rd Ballyandy 25/1 - 60 3rd Mount Windsor 80/1 - 60 4th Jesse Evans 4/1 - 55 Most the times when i do a system i dont know the prices, i prefer not to. It doesnt sway me because the stats dont change, its's just easier. 2 things surprised me about this system, one that Jesse Evans didnt top the list, and 2nd that Glory And Fortune did. Because i remember Jesse Evans popping up quite a few times but Glory & Fortune was slow and steady. Because, a horse stands out i presume its favourite, and Jesse Evans has been backed heavily, i can say im not surprised. And its why when i saw he was 4th on the list i wanted to post him up just to say he had good stats. Ill bfriefly look at him further on. Its still a very close race though and i wouldnt be surprised to see a big priced horse come up, and i hope the winner is above.  Glory And Fortune didnt like fences but has found his stride over hurdles. He will lo

  1st Manofthemountain 20/1 - 70 2nd Midnight Shadow 12/1 - 65 3rd Nietzsche 20/1 - 55 Protektorat and Galahd Quest both scored 45 and came 4th. So it was quite a close system and Manofthemountain has just topped it here. He has run twice at Cheltenham, one when he was 4th to Frodon over 3miles. He then won a Grade 2 over C&D in April, beating Magic Saint. Coole Cody and Up The Straight were well beaten by him that day. His stats on good ground are 2, 1, 1, 4, 2, 1, 2. So we know the ground and distance will suit, and he has won over C&D, he has slightly more weight to carry after that win but should run well here.  Midnight Shadow runs well here and his stats are 14, 1, 11,  1, 6, 2. If you cut it down to chases over 2m 4f - 2m 5f its 1, 6, 2. the 6th was in a Grade 1 Marsh Novice at the Festival. He has won on good ground previously, i do think he needs more juice in the ground though. That would be my only worry. His last 2nd here was over half a furlong further on soft, he
