3.40 Huntingdon Carraig Mor 5/4 Paddy Power BOG You could not fail to be impressed by Carraig Mor's debut at Uttoxeter at the start of November where he slaughtered the opposition without even coming off the bridal. He looked like a superstar then. He was made 1/8 for his next start at Ascot where he almost fell at the 3rd last and could never get back on terms. At the time King's horses were running poorly and in this race at a track where the trainer excels I expect him to leave that Ascot run well behind and win easily although the Lavelle horse Mosspark looks like a good horse also. 10 Points win Carraig Mor 5/4 Paddy Power BOG

Re: National Hunt Racing Thursday 20th February 2.30 Sedgefield Vieux Lion Rouge 1/2 & 3.10 Huntingdon Shotavodka 2/5 both Paddy Power (works out 11/10) Vieux Lion Rouge is undefeated in 2 hurdle races and won 3 bumpers, his only defeat coming at Cheltenham. The only other horse worth a mention is Prince Khurram but even allowing for age allowances and penalties, the class and strength of the favourite will see him home. Shotavodka was 2nd to Holywell lto and will either win or fall as he has no opposition. 10 Points win Double Vieux Lion Rouge 1/2 & Shotavodka 2/5 Paddy Power
