    On the other hand, Weld might be keen to impress his new owners by producing it to win first time out. I don't think having winners at Galway has ever been all that high on the Coolmore agenda.

    Lean and kean back down to its ideal trip and last winning mark in ballinrobe tomorrow , won race last year. 7/1. Knockmore boy will be tough to beat, form of its two recent wins working out very well, especially cd race. Will be watching a few others with a view to Ballybrit in 2 weeks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    I backed Lean and Keen. See Hidden Universe today amazing improvement will come the week after next I'm sure :rolleyes:

    I just watched it there for the first time my god. What a loss Scat Daddy is he could have gone right to the very top

    She's an absolute lump job for Nunthorpe if lining up, although Morny seems more likely


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    As a filly be mad to send her to the Nunthorpe against hardened sprinters. Morny still a gr.1 and she could pick it up easy

    Would be but he did it last year with Acapulco (who'll probably run again this year)

    I remember the likes of Lyric Fantasy and Kingsgate Native winning the Nunthorpe as 2yo's, and neither of them were anything special afterwards.
    After Lady Aurelia won the Queen Mary, Wesley Ward was spouting about running her in the Molecomb, which seems a bit silly.
    The Nunthorpe is her race. They'd want to be mad to swerve it.

    Was going to back Jan de heem at Beverly but Hugh Taylor ruined the price. Think whosthecat is value at 16s in the third race. Has his ground n looks well handicapped


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    Forgot about her Jim

    Primrose Valley looks like it has been laid out for the 605 Nmkt tomorrow, already attracting cash for a yard that likes to have a crack at one. I've had a decent bet at 7/1. Ran at same meeting last yr after a break with a respectable effort off 98 in a class 2, running off 90 tomorrow, clas 3 and the decent amateur is taking another handy 3lbs off just to make certain it wins :) GL

    Primrose valley goes again today at Ascot 16:35 over 5 furlongs.
    It ran well over 5 the last day after a break having been tried at 6 and 7

    Has attracted a bit of money again and has a very capable apprentice on board claiming 3lbs
    currently 8/1
    going to give it 1 more chance
    edit
    that was so bad ! last from start to finish


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    Rah Rah finally has her ground and trip tomorrow and is big at 10/1 despite being top weight in a handicap.


    Lake George despite being badly drawn can win tomorrow at Gowran getting his ground and trip 8/1


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre

    Didn't back it. Frustrating horse


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,681 ✭✭✭BumperD


    Balyika to get the week off to a profitable start 11/4. 80+races between the two festivals. Surely a few winners amongst them for us to make $$$$


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    What did Phil do that has everyone giving out

    A 7 race card at Galway tomorrow and Betbright are joint top price on 4 runners on the whole card. Their prices are consistently woeful


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,681 ✭✭✭BumperD


    Gone with home of the brave and boynton tomorrow.

    Beaten out of sight by a Joey o Brien good thing. He will probably have a good week


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,681 ✭✭✭BumperD


    If you want to watch an interesting race, watch eziyra last run. Comical. If it was another trainer, people would be calling for his head on a spike.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,793 ✭✭✭✭Francie Barrett


    Rex Imperator has a cracking chance in the last race at Goodwood tomorrow. Picked it out as the best finishing horse last time out and reckon it looks like it might just be coming into peak form and fitness. 12/1 best price now.

    Creme de la looks interesting in the 640 based on its 2nd to jet setting - 12/1 ew looks fair. Also went with lord scoundrel in the 535 @ 33/1 ew based on its form earlier this season which reads well. Good luck today. May all your selections run straight and true.

    Nearly a monster double


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 809 ✭✭✭Earendil


    Very unlucky there BD.

    Great tipping!

    Was there a huge gamble on Lord Scoundrel? SP 10/1.

    There must have been. Wasn't my modest bet that moved the market

    Thanks for that. Put on €5 Ew and returned at €220. Couldn't believe the ride Donogh Meyler gave him. Absolutely sensational. He didn't spare the whip and was clearly trying hardest to win. Anyway great tip and weekend paid for.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,681 ✭✭✭BumperD


    Had a bet ew on Lady Valdean 420 50/1. Been a few quid for it, trainer had a big priced winner of a maiden earlier this week, champ on board and by as decent enough Australian sprinter so the rattling fast ground should suit. Race wil probably go to one of the bigger stables but every now and again these maidens throw up a big priced winner so I'll dabble for small stakes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Peintre Celebre


    Nice one on the winner yesterday bumper. I was there but didn't fancy anything so had a token 5er each way on First Lieutenant (green cap too). Sat there watching your horse the whole way thinking it was mine


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,793 ✭✭✭✭Francie Barrett


    Small punt on Enjoy Responsibly in the 5:55 at Bangor. Former Gigginstown horse that is nicely down in the ratings and could run well at a fairly low grade. 6/1.
