Very strange imo - Made to Conquer now 102 (and that seems high imo) - which means he will come in under sufferance - also not sure to qualify as Strathdon was not even a reserve on the last log :unsure:

......I remember certain July's when anything below a 103 would not qualify.....however a Lonsdale winner would be considered....also not that confident that Strathdon will get in now.... :unsure:

Fully agreed. I pray he gets a run but it looks highly unlikely... :(

80/1 at the moment.

The VDJ distance should not be overlooked. I would prefer to go with a stayer even if they appear outclassed. It almost worked out for me last year with Krambambuli.
