    The winner, Bowenspark, looked nice. Florida Dreams form boosted.
    His form looks very good. Franked both sides of the water now. What race??? TWAR horse perhaps??? Think he'll win at Ayr this weekend so his price will shorten.

      I'm sure there was an interview with Lydia H after his Aintree victory and Nicky Richards said he'd start off at 2m and probably step up in trip as the season progresses. So with that in mind, I'd suspect a Ballymore horse or maybe connections might swerve the festival and return to Aintree for the 2m4f novice hurdle (assuming it's still in the calendar of course).

      • Maybe safe to hold fire then especially re trainer. You'd still get a decent price even if he bolts up at the weekend.

        • Hamish looks an obvious roll up opportunity at Newmarket today

          He mops up these races
          loves soft ground
          clear on ratings despite carrying a penalty
          Won all his races this year

          Shade of odds on looks very fair

            I thought this and then I remembered that I thought almost exactly the same in this race 12 months ago and he got beat. So I've pulled out. GL though

              I'd attempt to explain that loss by saying he's best with big breaks between runs and had only run 3 weeks before in this last year

                It not being at Newbury might help him as well. Beaten three times at odds on there.

                • Thus far my roll up attempts are best described as tragic at best.. however, God loves a trier.

                  I've picked out a breeders cup place treble, what are peoples thoughts? (12.61/1).
                  1. Big Evs - to be placed - (2 places 5/4)
                  2. Mawj - to be placed - (2 places 5/4)
                  3. Porta Fortuna - to be placed - (3 places 7/4)
                  I'll be looking to roll them up with the 'Hot pots'.

                  Am i being too greedy?

                  • Hell of a drift on Hamish there. Over 6/4 Betfair SP. Got the job done though.

                      Don't like big evs to place with his run style

                      Think he will either win or have his legs run off him and tail off

                        I'd have had a good single on him had I known he was going to go off that price I thought he should be 4/7-8/15

                          Also will porta fortuna get the trip?

                          I backed her in the Cheveley park because I thought she was a pure 6f horse and was happy to ignore her poor run over 7f, the extra 2f is a big question for me

                          • I’ll try make up for Realisations shite show yesterday

                            Letsbeclearaboutit 5/2 in the 14:40 at Cork on Sunday. he jumped lovely in his beginners at Gowran bar the last, is miles clear of his stablemate over hurdles & no reason why he shouldn’t be even further over fences. Genois didn’t do much for Power Of Pauses form book at Fairyhouse last time out either.

                            I’d have him about evens if I was pricing up myself.
                            Largy Debut ran a cracker in the Munster National too just to Frank the form further. 5/2 available only with WH currently!

                              I changed this to She's feels pretty for 2 places and I've fucked myself over.. wounded.

                                Feel for you

                                We've all been there, changed our minds on a bet listening to others ignoring our gut and watching our originally planned bet come in

                                Murphy gave her an excellent ride to get 2nd on the head bob

                                She feels pretty looked the winner in the straight

                                Certainly is a game of small margins, without getting a little bump from the winner and being momentarily unbalanced she feels pretty finishes second
