The first real big betting race of the week over 2 miles and 110 yards over the smaller obstacles and for 4 year-olds and older. For you traditionalists you'll be backing the favourite Detroit City for obvious reasons! For me it's Iktitaf (each way in the real betting world), or Brave Inca to take on the fav.
Past winners include Hardy Eustace (running again this year) twice in 2004 and 2005, Brave Inca last year, and prior to all that Istabraq three times. For the old timers Sea Pigeon, Comedy of Errors, Bula, Persian War, Lanzarote, Monksfield, Dawn Run and See You Then are all brilliant past winners. I used to love the build up to this in the shops cos you got the entire run down of the previous winners, and some of Sea Pigeon's wins were unbelieveable, taking nothing away from Istabraq.
Win Bets Only (I can't do each way on here!):D
Ante-Post rules apply, non-runners are classed as losers
Dead heat rules apply
For those avid betters I won't apply rule 4 if a runner is pulled out!tup:
