Mr Freedom is an interesting runner, useless for Channons reading back his jumps rating he's about 20lbs 'in' on the flat, but then again he probably needs to be!
A further thought on your vale of tears, EGS. It's one of those scenarios when you consider backing a horse at a big price, think better of it (for superstitious reasons in your case or sheer cowardice in mine) and then when it looms up to challenge your blood turns to ice. What Might Have Been. So to be beaten by a short head is (depending on the place terms) a quarter (or a fifth) as bad as winning by a short head. Such are the straws at which we punters clutch.
You're not the only one to notice that. He's a bit shorter now. I thought Coachello was a bit unlucky last week and I am interested to see if Pat Dobbs can work the oracle on him back over 6f.
Burren Song placed at 7/1. I reckon I'm now into double figures with January's runners up. I must be nailed on to finish second this month..

Superstion is a funny thing.
I couldn't nap Dunboyne in the Thyestes on his record of R1P in his last 3 Races. Beaten by a short head today (I feel a Johnny Cash song coming on).
He started 25/1 and I could have killed off this January competition if he won and done plenty of damage on his placing if I'd said e.w.
He came home safe but unfortunately he is now R1P2 which still doesn't help matters for future backing confidence.
My nap today is New York City.e.w who should start at more than 40/1 Meydan at 14.35.
33/1 looks a big price for Motafaawit. He's the ew nap. Meydan 2.35.
