Good stuff. Just backed it at 9's. What are the horses that are gonna be pulled from the race?

 

The horses have already been pulled about 2 hours ago. Calgary Bay and Hunters Hall, McCoy told them that he fancies Calgary Bay for this years national and is gutted he wont be able to ride it, they expect the price to come in when AP has been announced as jockey in the next couple of days.

 

is that the grand national? or something like it.

 

9/4 Froch is HUGE

 

How would you price it?

Betfair are doing a free fiver on their "Bullseye Roulette" game today.

 

Convinced Froch will go off fav. Home advantage is massive in this fight. Froch can't win in Montreal and Bute will struggle to get the nod in close rounds in Nottingham. Stylistically I don't think it's a great fight for Froch but over here it's a pick em fight for me

 

home advantage is offset by champion advantage, more chance of poking butter up a hedgehogs arse with a piping hot needle than froch going off jolly here

 

It's gone from 1/3 to 4/7 in the space of 2hrs. It will go off pick em or Froch slight jolly, guaranteed

 

Get ready to do this when I'm right by the way!

 

ill post a picture soon as i find a hedgehog

 

Ha ha!

 

not sure froch sees the final bell, iron chin yes but kessler took the stuffing out of froch by going downstairs, if bute starts landing body punches then he's in all kinds of trouble.

 

Bute 4/7 (victors)
Froch 7/4 (fred)

Froch points 7/4
Bute points 15/8
Bute KO 9/4
Froch KO 15/2

All with Betfred.

 

I was thinking of having a bit on Bute by stoppage if it was worth it but 9/4 seems a bit short to me.

Fred's got a method of victory market up for Rios v Gamboa as well;
6/5 Gamboa points
13/2 Rios Points
6/4 Rios stoppage
9/2 Gamboa stoppage
