    No one tells me 5th

    very happy with that,had bahrain storm 11-1 and Slieveardagh 16-1
    both placed 2nd and 4th respectively.
    great run by bahrain storm though.

    has to be Force Of Habit 6/5 in the next for me..

    Two races in 4 days might take it out of him, plus carries a penalty, daft price too. Should go well but at those prices he's opposable for sure.

    Makhaaleb has a solid chance at a nice price.

    He's 7/4 on Betfair anyway, agreed on Makhaaleb though, will have a nibbler @ 10/1

    As far as I know he doesnt carry penalty because it was a novice hurdle he won on monday and this is a flat mile n 4 handicap.

    Forgot that sorry, it's a 7lb penalty for his last flat win at Fairyhouse.

    Ive back Makhaaleb nice 10 e/w

    but my big bet is force of habit at 6/4 50 win :-)

    haha , I'm actually looking forward to this race more so then the last one. I studied this one in more detail.

    Thank god for backing luthrell lady on betfair @8-1 after the race!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,220 ✭✭✭20 Times 20 Times


    terrible rides but both jockeys.


  • Moderators Posts: 8,719 ✭✭✭x PyRo


    Jockey ballsed up Makhaaleb's chances. Silly silly man!

    Force Of Habit hadn't a hope, the bookies cleaned up there.

    13.50: Bronte Bay .5pts e/way



    17.30 Bay Swallow 2 pts e/w (without Force of Habit)

    Cant see Weld's being beaten but at 7's, in the w/o market I think this is a good value bet. Although drawn low, the extra distance will help improve his chances of getting into the race. I am having a saver on a horse at a huge price that has run very well this year in both codes in Dusty Trail - well drawn and Eoin Doyle had a good winner this week, he could just cause a surprise.


    Get in there - all loses for the week recouped ended up going 3 pts e/w


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,224 ✭✭✭CantGetNoSleep


    ****, any tip for the last to save the day? especially as pp havent paid me for that win earlier, only got a place!

    Yeah bad decision to race him three days after the first race !

    Jockey really really has to take criticism on Makhaaleb. !

    why Coronea Lilly ??


  • Registered Users Posts: 10 Mr. sneakyboo


    Im going with total pleasure here lads and then hopefully off study form pick winner for 2mw.

    Dont necessarily tink it was bad choice to run force habit after 3days... lot horses will and do run twice n galway n win...just not force habit but hindsight is great thing.
