    Hooper 8.3
    Hang In There 8.25
    Valentino Dancer 7.75
    big field and very competitive going by the ratings . I’ve put up the top 5 and I’ll note that Valentino Dancer has a trainer and jockey in red hot form, plus he’s Irish trained ? . Top 4 rated are all proven class wise so very hard to separate . 
     
    Unsure what the bet is yet as top rated is skinny odds . Might be better going ew on a horse just below him in the ratings .

    only 8 go to post . I’d struggle to try and get the top two rated beat . I really like top rated and trainer and jockey in form. Second rated trainer is running cold. 
     
    Taste The Fear 7/2 10 points win

    Thats A Given 7.8
    Captain Tom Cat 7.75
    Solomon Grey 7.65
    Fire Away 7.25
    Captain Tom Cat will be all the buzz here after winning his last 3 by big distances. He’s gone right up in the weights for that which may leave him vulnerable, but he’s obviously very classy . That’s A Given seems to travel well and wind surgery seems to have helped him. Watched a couple of his races back last night and I’d expect him to travel well throughout the race and try and land a blow near the end. He’s ran over further before so he’s got the stamina for this and this shorter distance won’t be a problem. Nice price too. 
     
    That’s A Given 11/1 5 points ew

    He finished 2 lengths behind the winner and it says he got hampered final 110 yards. Might pay to watch a replay of that race, if you haven’t already that is. First run back as you say, so maybe needed it. I’ve just rated it. Don’t bother with these kind of races usually as not much to go on and there’s plenty who can find massive improvement as they are only 3 year olds .

    I’m getting prepared for Cheltenham next year, I’m going the last two days. When I say I’m getting prepared I mean I’m drinking Guinness. First time in pub for a while.

By adapting Shannon's Entropy formula, we can generate our own "Wisdom Of Crowd Market Index" (WCMI) to represent this information on a scale from 0 - 1."

    I'm happy to lose lucky vega who very much looks a sprinter .....wembley although 8.4 ...only lost to st Mark's by 0.5 lengths so is probably better than his 8.4 rating and warrants respect as such

    Football isn’t football anymore mate. This super league has been on the agenda for years . The premier league is an absolute joke as well and I hate us being part of it, but for the future of the club though it’s where they need to be and and hate that, too. I’ve completely turned my back on the game now. I’ve been a villa season ticket holder for years, but I’m done . This ain’t the game I fell in love with . People go on about the dark days of football back in the 70s/80s. Give me that any day of the week compared to this diluted money grabbing thing we call football now .

    I agree. I supported Wednesday home and away for many years in the 70s, 80s and 90s, in those days probably half the team were born in Sheffield, these days you are lucky if they were born in the UK. 
    Football sold out years ago when the premier league was formed, apart from the top 6 you have no chance (I think Leicester was an exception). Premiership survival is the ambition of most teams.
    I would be happy to get rid of the top 6, then the rest would have something to play for. Ok there would be less money flying around but perhaps we can start paying players £500k a year instead of £500k a week.

    I've ended up just backing Dapper after all of that ?
    Midgley horses tend to come into their own in May so hopefully they're still out for a few prep runs. 
    It does all point to Dapper so hopefully he can win for us.

    Debawtry(3rd rated) has recently beat bunnian by a nose , but is slightly worse off at the weights this time around , but 11/1 is a good price I reckon .
