I am thinking of what way it will be run tomorrow.
Faugheen expected to go out in front, will one of them take him on early?
I cant really find an obvious one but all the same we know Faugheen can and probably will go from the front.
We saw Mccoy go early the last day which in hindsight played into The Flys hands IMO who is basically unbeatable in Ireland but its a different matter when he travels and that extra bit of age is always a worry in a fast run top class race.
Jezki is a different horse at Cheltenham, expect him to be trying to get to Faugheen after the 3rd last, McCoy isnt going to allow himself to be beaten by not forcing Faugheen to sustain the pace.
On to The New One who I thought was unlucky last year but this year running on unsuitably soft ground he has not looked to have improved, I expect him to run a huge race if he doesn't make mistakes, this lad stays very strong from the back of the very last.
Mullins also has Artic Fire in the race who has run well this season in Ireland but looks up against it.
Not trying to do a disservice to the other 3 but they are unlikely to play a part at the business end.
So we come back to Faugheen leading them and how far the rest will allow him......I will definitely be backing The Fly because a fast pace where staying the last two furlongs up a hill at the finish theoretically is what he needs, 11-1 on betfair makes up the mind on that.
My main bet will be The New One even though he has a lot of questions to answer.
What will actually happen is Faugheen will just pile it on from the start and they will all fall by the wayside
