What an Interesting and difficult race to tackle .......such a puzzle .......the ratings have made it harder actually 

Total recall     313    20/1 

Sunos novios   308   25/1 

Polidam    306    33/1 

Solumn grundy    303 

Where do I start ......its possible solumn grundy might not even make it into race as 6th reserve and even then hes only 4th rated .....obviously the 2 that stand out are the Mullins horses total recall and polidam but both those have issues .....total recall only ran 4 days ago and trends suggest that's not enough to recover although that last run looked promising and had won atc3mile in past ....interesting trainer has left in so far ......polidam has patchy form ....looked promising in the Guinness and a reproduction of that gives him chances if he can last the extra distance ......I'll wait for final decs but in such a difficult race I think a couple of big priced e.w bets is the way to go
