    Zekarya runs again today fell last time out when travelling well and well suported in the market 7-1 3.00 gowran.

    Nice spot. When money comes for his it's time to get on the crafty beggar

    **** it took a chance on the Warrior at 7/4


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,079 ✭✭✭hawaii501


    All aboard the bog warrior express. Has to be beating this lot even if it is his first run and 7/4 is well worth the risk.

    Really like Horatio Hornblower in the 3.30 @ Haydock. Looked a promising novice hurdler, but was off the track for 14 months before making a winning reappearance at Ffos Las two weeks ago.

    Longer trip today, but last run didn't indicate this would be a problem. There definitely should be improvement, and I think he's well handicapped, as some of the others will struggle with the weight.

    On at 9/2

    My 4 fancies for today. Two rockers @ ascot, honeys joy at gowran, two singles and an ew double. Captain chris and mountain king ascot straight double. Small stakes for me today. Really looking forward to today's racing. Horses having prep runs in today's conditions can be beaten a long way, if your waiting on something for Cheltenham I wouldn't be put off by a poor performance in today's heavy ground.

    Gonna have a small bet on Lookoutnow in 3pm Gowran today. He has course & distance form. His last run he didn't see out the trip & was racing up in class.

    Back in trip today & only worry is he is carrying top weight in tough ground.

    Lough Kent 3.15 Ascot and Glen Quest 4.40 Gowran. 2 singles and EW double.

    Rossom what you think of Cloudy Too tomorrow? He'll hardly beat Captain Chris but might run into a place?

    Could push Captain Chris if he takes another step forward but he's probably playing for a place at best.

    Wouldn't be backing him and think he's a bit under-priced myself.

    Venetian at haydock in the sky blue and red silks are local owners.
    Picked both selections as you for ascot run. Bourne on same weight as he won 2 years ago so guaranteed a run.
    Dan breen is a surprise waiting to happen.
    Others o'faoilans boy over 3m is over priced Wilde blue yonder ran superbly while Alan kings yard were under a cloud.
    Highland lodge takes my fancy in the 3miler also. More to follow ;-)

    Tomorrow will be a day full of winners I know this

    Ding dong...all my winnings on dan breen :-)

    Bog warrior fall? Was close to baking the double with faller insurance given his previous. Ah well.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,475 ✭✭✭carpothepunk


    Bog Warrior is not a chaser, and wants 40 mile.

    Surely the end of Bog Warriors chase career, never looks comfortable chasing and his head carriage looks all over the place. Another big win for O'Connell

    Head carriage has always concerned me, though it was better today than last season IMO.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,335 ✭✭✭✭UrbanSea


    I should have known better than backing a horse off after a year but thought the rest were weak.

    Hurdles over 3m is where he should be. I would have thought another entry in the world hurdle would have been the plan

    Took 66s for the national during the week.

    Was definitely more upward today but still looked to be low to me and then perking up as the fence comes up, there was a stage at the start of his career he looked like he was gonna multitask and eat the grass and jump at the same time!

    Restless Harry for me in this

    Hope it was NRNB, couldn't see him running in it. Ground would most likely be against him before you even take into account the fences.
